Overall Satisfaction with Toad for Oracle

Toad for Oracle is widely used across our application developers and analysts. Our main focus is understanding data structures, information within those structures, troubleshooting data quality issues and development of local processes and integration packages.
  • Toad works particularly well for analyzing data structures and the information enclosed within them. When users are having difficulties, Toad makes it easy to review what data resides in the tables and are there unexpected values within fields.
  • When we are experiencing performance issues, Toad shows us currently indexes on a table, and makes it easy to add additional indexes if required.
  • We utilize Oracles packages/procedures and functions. Toad provides an easy way to create and maintain those objects
  • When working with Oracle packages, and there are errors in your code, Toad could use better tools to track down and help correct the issue
  • Toad does not have an option for versioning control of database objects.
  • Toad is a solid tool that assist us in performing the tasks we need to complete.
  • When experiencing any difficulties with Toad, support has be quick and extremely helpful
SQL Developer is a good product but seems more difficult to use.
We use an off the shelf ERP solution; Toad is a perfect tool for analyzing data structures, data within those structures, and development of local changes to business processes. It is perfect for a deeper understanding of baseline code, and how the data is stored and manipulated.
