"You do not have to install it, just dump it on the OS, then use it."
"You can install it on every platform. It just works. The other thing is that it's free. And Oracle is committed to the development of the tool, so it has been improving."
"The most valuable features of Oracle SQL Developer that I use. However, I do not use all of them"
"It allows us to implement a form of test driven development (TDD) for database-resident code."

"The development of the product needs improvement."
"I would like to see it extend native support for functional languages like Scala."
"The stability depends on what version you're using. There are more successful versions and are less successful versions. For example, 17.3 is less successful. There were many bugs. Now, we are trying to pull all the developers to upgrade to 17.4."
"There is room for improvement in the Real Time SQL Monitoring."
"It's more stable sometimes and less stable other times. I have used it in Windows, Mac, and Linux. It's variable, it's not the same stability. I think that can be improved on."
"Oracle SQL Developer could improve the speed, it is a bit slow."
"I would like it to support background processes better."
"It would be nice to have the ability to access DBs than Oracle."
"I think it would be great to have an overview over the sessions it opens so that we could easily see and control which connections to the database we want to keep open, which ones are hanging; and it would be great to make them independent from each other."
"If they had something on the Web then you wouldn't need to install it, just query, like Enterprise Manager."
