Oracle SQL Developer is an integrated development environment (IDE) which provides editors for working with SQL, PL/SQL, Stored Java Procedures, and XML in Oracle databases.
ReSharper is the best all-in-one tool for Visual Studio that I have encountered. It contains many features not found in Visual Studio Enterprise, and those features already in Visual Studio provide much better implementations. I would recommend this to all developers, with the only people who will find it a detriment are developers running older, slower machines (due to ReSharper's resource requirements).
Almost all development activities (the tool is called "SQL Developer", not "DBA Toolset") can be done easily and quick with [Oracle] SQL Developer. From data model creation (tables, views) to development (creation of procedures, functions, packages) and then testing (SQL Developer includes an easy to use debugger), all tasks can be performed in a single tool.
It may not be as complete as other solutions for DBA tasks like instance monitoring, but it is usually OK for development and testing environments if you want to do some basic troubleshooting.
Object Browser in SQL Developer allows you to explore the contents of your database using the connection tree.
The SQL Worksheet is an editor that allows for execution of SQL statements, scripts, and PL/SQL anonymous blocks. SELECT statements can be executed to return results in a spreadsheet-like 'grid' or can be executed as a script such to emulate SQL*Plus behavior and output
DBA Console allows users with administrative privileges to access DBA features such as database init file configuration, RMAN backup, storage, etc.
Inability to run multiple queries on the same database. You can only run one query on a given database.
Analytical models created from complex tables isn't accurate, and needs work.
Inability to view multiple tables of a database side-by-side. When trying to find correlations between tables, it would help to be able to see them at once on the same page.
ReSharper is very familiar if you already know Visual Studio. JetBrains does have an excellent IDE (Rider); however, since ReSharper is an extension to Visual Studio, you only need to learn what their tools add, not a whole new way of working. I have found the extension's interface to be straightforward, although perhaps due to the massive range of features, navigating the menus is a little time-consuming until your muscle memory kicks in. Maybe a feature search tool would help make usability a 10 out of 10?
Oracle SQL Developer is very easy to use and there are a wide range of courses available which can help you get started just within a day. Data can be exported in multiple formats based on user requirements. Organizational data can be stored and management effectively using Oracle SQL Developer. All the data, tables, sequences, indexes can be easily created and updated in Oracle SQL Developer.
ReSharper does what it does very well because it operates inside the IDE you are already using. It provides advanced features that function far above and beyond what Visual Studio Professional offers and does not require you to learn another IDE like JetBrain's excellent IDE Rider. My only wish is that ReSharper had a Visual Studio Code plugin!
I have started to use Toad for Oracle recently because it is easier to sort and filter results, due to their memory sort feature that puts the results from your query in memory so that you don't have to rerun your query. I have used SQL Developer to easily update records in tables that I need to fix. I haven't found an easy way to do this in Toad other than writing SQL insert statements.
ReSharper is our go-to tool for file formatting. All of our code process must be formatted correctly, and ReSharper makes that an easy to access keyboard shortcut.
