Entity Developer Pros and Cons

What I liked best is its ability to generate entity classes & mapping code automatically, which has saved me countless hours of manual coding, allowing me to focus on the critical aspects of my projects. Plus, the flexibility it offers in customizing generated code allowed me to adhere to my project's specific requirements without compromising on the quality. Also, the visual designer was amazing. Being able to visually design my database schema, entities, & relationships greatly enhanced my productivity & gave exceptional results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is amazing, no doubt, and I am not complaining, but there's always room for improvement. So,I think some additional documentation & tutorials on its advanced features would have been great for users like me who would like to explore the tool's full potential.

A major drawback of Entity Developer is its limited availability for non-Windows platforms, which may be a limitation for developers working on Mac or Linux. Additionally, the pricing structure of Entity Developer, particularly for enterprise editions, can be considered on the higher side for smaller organizations or individual developers with budget constraints.

It's a bit complicated in the initial phase, its loading time is way too much and the syntax is difficult to apprehend in short a bit complicated. It is in fact in a developing phase and will hopefully be fixed / improved in the long run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Entity Developer is a tremendous time-saver and is very flexible. Unlike other tools for generating EF code it is possible to setup Entity Developer to do anything from simple model generation to much more complex mapping and transformations. It has replaced several different in-house tools for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Entity Developer is a capable product and extensive configuration options are available. It can be a little overwhelming at first to find exactly what you need, and while the documentation is well-done it would be helpful to have more samples/examples. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Entity Developer makes it easy for me to generate Data Access Layer EF/EF Core code for my web applications. I can even modify the templates and have my own custom changes reflected in the generated code. A really great product!
