  Rock solid, true multi-tasking, with easy profiling

  by: Joe K on 31-Oct-2005 10:28:39 AM

  Pros: Kicks TOAD's butt in SQL queries, PL/SQL development.

  Cons: TOAD's tabbing is still superb for rapid browsing of DB objects.

  Very Good IDE for PL/SQL Development.

  by: oracleguy on 08-Aug-2007 09:15:34 AM

  Pros: I like this product the best of all the PL/SQL Development IDE's out there. Sure, every IDE has it's own pros and cons, but, of all of them, this has the most pros as far as I am concerned.

  Couple of them that caught my eye are:

  1) It's NICE integration with Visual SourceSafe(source control).

  2) It opens different sessions for different windows by default. That is not always a good thing(like when you are using VPD's), but, here is the kicker. It is a changeable setting. I haven't known any other IDE to be doing that. This way you get the best of both worlds.

  Also, I like the new icon that they have (the pinkish colored database icon) rather than their old green and yellow.

  God has smiled upon Oracle Developers.

  by: KevinTheDBA on 28-Feb-2005 11:30:28 AM

  Pros: This product is intuitive, full featured, FAST, STABLE and easy to use. I wouldn't be surprised if ORACLE corp tries to buy these guys out and make this thier standard. They're already a customer (seriously, check it out on thier client list).. If you know what you're doing, you will really like this thing.

  Cons: No cons. Really. I have tried to find them, they don't exist.
