"Great driver but requires specific licenses"

What do you like best about ODBC driver for Salesforce?

Like with most other database connection drivers, this allows me to remotely connect using a third-party tool to extract data from Salesforce tables for the entire organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ODBC driver for Salesforce?

My only qualm about the driver (and it's not a deal-breaker) is that it requires certain developer permissions to use. If we want some users to be able to extract data themselves that can be troublesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ODBC driver for Salesforce solving and how is that benefiting you?

A database connector is pretty standard. So like other connectors, it allows me to connect directly to the underlying database in SalesForce. When the user has the correct permissions it allows us to use external tools to extract data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
