"The initial setup was very easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution are it's built very well, easy to use, and simple to describe freely what is needed in logical and physical data models."
"It's a stable system. It never crashes."
"It can automate many routine tasks and save human resources to focus on real problems."
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"Pricing for small consultancies needs improvement. They sustain prices to competing tools. The competing tools tend to do special offers. PowerDesigner SAP doesn't pay much attention to the pricing of it and there are no special offers."
"It would be helpful if there were glossary, catalog and governance tools. It would help make it a true end-to-end product."
"Not very intuitive or user-friendly."

"In the future, I would like to see data manipulation capability where you can actually write SQL queries and manipulate data from directly within the tool."
"There should be a better usage of current hardware including multicore CPUs, higher resolutions, and multiple displays."
"The focus is more on mainstream development environments, and I see a lack of focus on the open source world. I think SAP PowerDesigner probably interfaces better with SQL Server and Db2 but not with open source databases like PostgreSQL and MySQL."
"I have found the solution not easy to use. When publishing you have to download the HTML, make adjustments against the updated HTML, convert it to HTML, then finally paste the HTML. There is not an on-the-fly function available to bypass the step-by-step converting process that other solutions have."
