Highly stable solution and efficiently pinpoints specific areas with issues, which has saved us time troubleshooting.

Pros

"The schema browser is the most valuable feature. The way it presents the objects in our database."

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."

Seamless database management with efficient session handling and query optimization

Pros

"One of the most valuable features of Toad for Oracle is its ability to manage sessions by killing those that are hung or blocking other sessions. "

Cons

"It would be beneficial if Toad for Oracle could incorporate OEM features, as having monitoring capabilities in the same interface would simplify workload and management tasks."

A reasonably priced solution that can be useful for individuals who are looking to start learning SQL queries

Pros

"Toad for Oracle has proven to be better than other tools since we have never experienced any crashes. "

Cons

"An area where the solution could use some improvement is in terms of user-friendliness. During the initial setup phase, the solution was not very intuitive when attempting to establish connections."

Is stable and has no issues with regard to scalability

Pros

"I haven't seen any issues with scalability. We have about 1000 people on our IT team who use the solution."

Cons

"Improvement wise, for the user it should show the minimum features on the screen and not all the features. Toad has a lot of features, but most users will use only 5 or 10 based on their role. Nobody needs all the features, and they should provide the option to choose only the required features. Only minimum requirements should be enabled by default. When all the features are shown, the performance is not good; it loads slowly and has hundreds of popups and unnecessary questions."

The fashion browser and the Schema browser are valuable features, it is a complete solution

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Toad for Oracle is the fashion browser and the Schema browser. It is very complete. "

Product version discussed: 12.2
An Oracle developer and database administration software tool that is very flexible and helpful in query accuracy, analysis, and data visualization

Pros

"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."

Cons

"It would be better if they had an online option allowing me to connect from anywhere on any device. Sometimes I face some errors, depending on the network and setup. It's not a big issue."
