What do you like best about Toad For Oracle?

It helps to connect to oracle databases as many as we required.

It gives a proper view of a SQL query, unlike other DB tools which does not provide a view, toad helps in searching, substituting a field in where block and so on.

It also helps in extracting of records in large numbers to XML files and other supported formats.

The view and the time taken to execute helps us to improve the performances and it also shows the error as and when the format/syntax becomes incorrect, which helps us as software developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Toad For Oracle?

User experience can be improved as other types of databases such as PLSQL have their user interfaces maintained well.

Importing data into tables is time consuming, i think it can also be improved.

While in citrix, application connecting to database requires lot of study in order to connect via firwall and so on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Toad For Oracle solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Toad to connect, analyse, debug, construct SQL and other db operations towards databases as part of our application used in our organization.

It helps us to export tables data, while running a native query it allows to substitute parameters in flower brackets inside query that helps to test query without much changes to sql. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
