ClusterControl vs. DBArtisan

I love its ability to work without manual configuration. ClusterControl has enabled us to control all servers across business and monitor overall server health with ease. ClusterControl ability to automate repetitive tasks has made my work easier and saves me a lot of time. It also offers a very good GUI.

• Proficient and proactive database monitoring, which governs security.

• User interface is easy to use, and in some ways better than Toad. The left hand side shows all databases, and you can drill down to instance, storage, schemas, tablespaces, and performance views. The right hand side displays the details of the selected object.
• This is the best tool if you want to manage multiple RDBMS platforms in a single tool using the same familiar interface. Other third party tools can do it also, but it's not nearly as integrated as this, and may require additional plug-ins installed. DBArtisan excels at this, and can perform cross-platform data migrations easily.
• It has different DB analysts, which can help diagnose issues with performance, optimize storage, detect fragmentation, and plan for capacity growth. For almost any action you want to take, you can generate the DDL for preview, and/or schedule it to run at a specific time.

• It's holistic with data virtualization.
• Requires users with skills to install.
• Excellent with backup and instant recovery.
• Great for the safety and security of our data.

• Locks up far too often
• Licensing structure is expensive

ClusterControl has easy installation steps compared to other softwares. It also offers a free trial helping potential buyers be able to experience it's magic while other softwares don't offer a free trial making a customer buy the software blindly. It offers value for money compared to other softwares offering the same features and services.

DBArtisan does not have an in-depth performance analyzer for databases.

• Database security reporting ensures the malware from any source gets identified and deleted.
• Further, automation of every analytical process improves the efficiency of operations.
• Data migration ensure there is coordination with the outside world.

• It has a positive ROI on our organization. It's better than OEM and SQL Developer. Although the license could be expensive, it is perfect for large organizations, especially with multiple RDBMS platforms.
• Most features are redundant between DBArtisan and Toad. I would not recommend using both if you already own one of them. Just download the trial for the one you're not using, and see what works best for your organization.
• DBArtisan is great for DBAs and would be my personal preference. Toad is good for developers and DBAs alike but I feel like sometimes the interface is too busy and too clumsy to use.
