Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Developing new dimensional models; for the data we're hosting, dimensional modeling is more useful.""The data modeling module is important to me because I am a database developer and designer... It's very fast, reliable, up-to-date, so easy to use, smooth.""We can track changes to our data models and tie those changes back to specific tasks or efforts that we identify.""Straightforward setup.""When validating the model, the ability to provide sub-models to developers, and generate a physical model from the logical, makes it easier to review a logical model with stakeholders.""This application does a lot of things, as do competitor products, but the main reason to go with this product was the ability to create many automations, where we can improve our work and our process.""We use the solution to create data models which describe our company's data architecture""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."

"SQL Server​ Configuration: This allows admins to compare and edit server configurations for one or more SQL servers saving a lot of time when managing large numbers of instances.""This product allows for much easier cross server monitoring and administration."

More IDERA SQL Admin Toolset Pros →

"Its technical support team is helpful.""The product is stable.""The most valuable feature of Protegrity Data Security is the reduction of information being exposed.""The solution’s pricing is moderate."

Cons
"It would be helpful if they could create a generic JSON database type, as a target database, rather than a specific one like Mongo.""The screens are a bit outdated. They could use a new look and feel.""What needs the most improvement are semantic lineage and usability.""I'd like the ability to debug the errors ourselves instead of having to call them. There are certain types of errors that, I wouldn't say they come up regularly, but when you have an error it is very often the same type of error. Knowing that it's a Type III or Type I, it would be nice to have some kind of debugging facility for us to use to find out where the problem that threw that error occurs. That would be a really cool feature.""They allow functionalities to be released before the full tests for catching and correcting errors are completed.""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.""Sometimes our version is a little unstable. But I think this problem occurs because our version is old.""What I would like to see improved is the reliability of the releases, releases that are a little less buggy."

More IDERA ER/Studio Cons →

"A set of T-SQL admin snippets might be useful, e.g., code to create users, databases, indexes, etc. It would definitely be welcomed in the bundle."

More IDERA SQL Admin Toolset Cons →

"Protegrity is using a different OS which has some bugs. Sometimes it's causing an initialization error.""Protegrity Data Security could improve by having more integration.""The solution's UI could be better."

    Overview

    IDERA ER/Studio is a powerful suite for business-driven data modeling that enables companies to create an enterprise architecture foundation for data governance. With round-trip support for multiple database platforms, data architects have the power to reverse-engineer, analyze, and optimize existing databases easily from diverse platforms. Data professionals can easily capture and share models, metadata, data sources, and glossaries across the organization for improved alignment between the organization and Information Technology. Organizational stakeholders can take part in the metadata definition workflow and access information on models and metadata at the right level for their needs.

    Unlike its competition, it provides the broadest range of data platform support, industry-leading enterprise-level capabilities, visual data lineage and flow modeling, full dimensional modeling for data warehousing and business intelligence, and business data objects to bridge the gap between developers and data architects. It also provides a complete solution for enterprise architecture and data governance, extensive model change management, unique incorporation of true enterprise data dictionaries, unique linking of constructs across models, integrated visual data lineage import, and integrated data and business process modeling.

    Database administrators need simple and quick ways to manage their SQL Server environment. SQL Admin Toolset provides 24 essential desktop tools for SQL Server to save time by simplifying routine administrative and troubleshooting tasks. Reduce time spent on daily SQL Server administration. Easily run daily admin tasks across multiple SQL Server instances. Simplify migrating, consolidating, and creating SQL Server instances. Eliminate manual, time-consuming, and error-prone admin tasks.

    Organizations leveraging networked applications and services benefit from the flexibility and convenience of being able to create and access data across multiple devices and users. At the same time, sensitive data, including health and personally identifiable information, may need to be protected or de-identified to satisfy regulations or internal privacy policies.

    Protegrity Data Security Gateway addresses these security, privacy, and compliance risks with advanced encryption and tokenization to transparently protect sensitive data as it moves across the network. By securing data in real-time as it is transmitted, enterprises are assured that data automatically adhere to rules governing sensitive data at all times.

    Transparently protect sensitive data across the network without modifying applications or database calls. Protect applications and API’s quickly without impacting your business.
