Great tool if you have good developers available. Read full review Cons Debugging is not very easy. When one wants to see the flow of data from one Query to another, the process is not very smooth and efficient. A lot of functions do not behave the way they should. I have faced problems with the count() function. I have faced problems while loading Excel files. The same set of options will work in one case but not in the other.
