Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction. This could help someone who's not the strongest programmer. If the software could help them write queries correctly it would be very helpful, especially for small development teams or teams that lack the input skills necessary to write and program efficiently.

This product would benefit from a better "join" function that is more intuitive. The "Group By" should be defaulted to "group" when a field is added. When there is a calculated field, the automatic "group by" doesn’t work. Instead, it needs to be done manually for that field. Occasionally, it has some odd issues after a Windows update, although support is pretty good at offering short-term solutions and fixing them in future releases. Table joins are not working properly the whole time. We have experienced query breaking when visualized, after editing in the script. You can’t use the visual to add two calculations on one field. Rather, it has to be scripted. On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues.
