Toad is the best query building tool

  • December 12, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
-can handle many many records
-can export in different formats
-great editor
-ease of use
-replaces our archaic query building program
What do you dislike about the product?
-didnt figure out how to edit data within query. archaic program (with obvious security flaws) allows for direct editing in simple queries and committing.
-you still need to be knowledgeable in PL/SQL language. although there is a community, i would like a one stop shop for PL/SQL theory in all levels, maybe more intermediate, like running triggers and loops.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pulling data for various reasons from a robust database for a short timeline.
The ability to pull data and export fast has saved us literally weeks of worktime.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Customized training on software based on needs.

Best Oracle Database Tool Ever

  • December 12, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Back in the late 1990s, I went to an Oracle User's Group meeting. They passed around a floppy disk with a copy of TOAD. At that point it was a shareware product. I loved it from the beginning. It is easy and intuitive to use. The Editor has many formatting features including color-coding of KEY words, all of which can be customized. Code Snippets, Explain Plans, and other helps are all built into the product. The Schema Browser is helpful in reviewing objects in a Schema quickly as well as being able to view and/or manipulate data. Whether writing ad-hoc SQL statements, creating functions, or writing procedures, TOAD can do it all.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really have no dislikes about the product as I have used it for many, many years. It has been a great journey seeing this product move from a shareware state to a full blown commercial product. My only issue has been the slowness of the Schema Browser on schemas with over 65,000 objects. This has been improved other the years. Since most schemas I am working with contain no where near that many objects, this is usually not an issue for me on a regular basis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Database and web application development have been the primary uses. Speed of development and quick access to data have been the primary benefits realized.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I always encourage develpers to compare TOAD to Oracle's SQL Developer. I have utilized both, but still always come back to TOAD.
