We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is easy to track the reports, this is what is most valuable for me.""The most valuable feature is SQL Search."

More Redgate SQL Toolbelt Pros →

"The schema browser is the most valuable feature. The way it presents the objects in our database.""It is very easy to manage all of the objects.""The tool evaluates non-optimized queries and generates the queries in a way that is more optimal - in addition to giving us some good practices for code development.""I like that it's very flexible and helpful in query accuracy, analysis, and data visualization. I also like the move facilities available in Toad for Oracle. Overall, I think it's a fantastic product for analyzing SQL queries and managing all kinds of queries.""The most valuable feature of Toad for Oracle is the fashion browser and the Schema browser. It is very complete.""Toad has a lot of features that are very useful, fast, and well developed.""The best product for working with Oracle databases for support, checking and loading data.""Toad for Oracle has proven to be better than other tools since we have never experienced any crashes."

Cons
"I would like to see the bandwidth increase allowing me to easily analyze more data.""The biggest problem with the Redgate SQL Toolbelt is just how heavy it is; it seems to take a lot of resources."

More Redgate SQL Toolbelt Cons →

"Sometimes it works in some areas, but in others, it doesn't. Like when you copy, you find that it's blank and doesn't copy anything. So, there are some objects that do copy, and sometimes they don't.""Once in a while, I may encounter a memory exception and have to abort the application. On a few occasions, the file that stores the saved connections for the New Connection window will become corrupt and I will lose all of my saved connections. I am not sure if that is a Windows or TOAD issue, but it has happened to all of my developers at some point or another.""There should also be a better "cancel query" option as sometimes one cancels a query, but then it still might run for a long time, and then one has to crash Toad in order to cancel the query.""I'd like reporting to be more available. If it was a feature that was already installed, more people would take advantage of it.""The way the dialog boxes appear can be improved.""Toad for Oracle does not have a particular resolution within the application.""I would like to see an improvement in the performance because opening the browser and the editor should be faster.""In future releases, the product can be more intuitive. It has to be lighter than what it is because sometimes it is not responding quickly. If I do some features at the same time, it's not supporting. I have to wait sometimes to get the action. It's dependent on the resources of the workstation, but it has to be improved in this area. The faster processing is needed."
