Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, Quest Software, SolarWinds and others in Database Development and Management."Developing new dimensional models; for the data we're hosting, dimensional modeling is more useful."
"We have a database design group of about 15 people. The Repository enables multiple people to work on the same model at the same time. We have fully integrated models, so we have one model for the enterprise data warehouse, one model for MDM, with a lot of sub-models in these things. People work on different parts of the model at different times. So the repository enables us to share the models, and keep track of what everybody is working on."
"Using this product has improved the way we maintain our models because they have a place where we can keep all of them, and they can be viewed using the web interface."
"We found a lot of duplication, a lot of non-conformity in the way our databases were designed. By identifying these situations, we're able to go back in and try to create a more standardized solution."
"We are able to document the data lineage and data flows of our data from one system to another."
"The interface is really simple to use and it allows me to pick and choose which tables I want to reverse engineer."
"Valuable features include the ability to visually represent what the database tables are going to look like and their relationships. Also, the ability to document the definitions of the tables and the columns that are in a table so that we can communicate what the data is and how it should be used."
"It's easy to model and has a user-friendly interface. I like the team portal because, once we upload, the entire team can see the model."
"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."
"They allow functionalities to be released before the full tests for catching and correcting errors are completed."
"The model diagram because very clumsy when you save it on the team server and the models are very big."
"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."
"I would like to see better documentation/help for the Data Architect tool. Creation of tutorials would be nice, as there are some features which are not as clearly defined as they should be."
"The screens are a bit outdated. They could use a new look and feel."
"This solution needs more precise documentation."
"What I would like to see improved is the reliability of the releases, releases that are a little less buggy."
"It isn't easy to compare the thousands of tables in the model against the database. The tool should improve the synchronization within the large organization"
"The solution could use better dashboards for new users. They can look complicated until you get used to using the solution."
