Overall Satisfaction with SQL Developer

SQL Developer is used for querying Oracle databases. It provides an easy way to get data from Oracle databases and also help monitor any issues within our IT department.
  • Query Oracle Database and export data
  • Provide quick overview of Database
  • Use it to Run SQL Tuning advisor and custom reports for performance troubleshooting
  • Quick to load and faster performance
  • Ability to support setting of default schema on logon automatically
  • Use thin JDBC LDAP URL instead of hard-coding server names in connection.xml. Currently, we need to use advanced and specify URL our selves.
  • Positive as it is free and does the job.
It basically is a free tool and provided by Oracle and therefore continuously updated and supported and does not cost any money. That is why we selected SQL Developer.
