Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, Quest Software, SolarWinds and others in Database Development and Management."The tool is simple to use."
"The interface is really simple to use and it allows me to pick and choose which tables I want to reverse engineer."
"The reverse engineering is the most important feature."
"Modeling with Data Architect: We can quickly reverse-engineer a database from an existing database or create a model from scratch."
"We have been able to quickly create models for our enterprise-wide databases, even when some of them are third-party databases."
"Straightforward setup."
"The most valuable features are... those that enable me to represent the database to the development community and the business users."
"Data lineage tracking: It allows us to identify upstream and downstream systems using data."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It's very easy to implement the solution. Deployment took about one hour. You only need one person for deployment and maintenance, so long as that person has a good background of administration and operation."
"The solution could be sped up, as it is a little slow (e.g., when it's doing its database compare)."
"What needs the most improvement are semantic lineage and usability."
"We did have a big issue when we upgraded to the 2016 version. The Team Server portion never did quite install correctly, and/or the database was corrupted, and we never figured it out."
"Tech support is a sticking point with me. I am really disappointed in the tech support. We pay for the Platinum level. It takes hours to get a response."
"It would be helpful if they could create a generic JSON database type, as a target database, rather than a specific one like Mongo."
"I would like to upload, a database with about 3,000 tables. It takes so much time and, finally, it freezes the whole solution so that I actually cannot work with that environment. For the data warehouse, it's fine because I have 20 or 30 tables. It works fine. But, when I reverse-engineer the database with 3,000 tables, it freezes and it's hard to upload and reverse-engineer such environments in ER/Studio."
"The screens are a bit outdated. They could use a new look and feel."
"The model diagram because very clumsy when you save it on the team server and the models are very big."
"The solution could use better dashboards for new users. They can look complicated until you get used to using the solution."
