    Oracle
    Almost all development activities (the tool is called "SQL Developer", not "DBA Toolset") can be done easily and quick with [Oracle] SQL Developer. From data model creation (tables, views) to development (creation of procedures, functions, packages) and then testing (SQL Developer includes an easy to use debugger), all tasks can be performed in a single tool.
    It may not be as complete as other solutions for DBA tasks like instance monitoring, but it is usually OK for development and testing environments if you want to do some basic troubleshooting.

    Oracle
    • Object Browser in SQL Developer allows you to explore the contents of your database using the connection tree.
    • The SQL Worksheet is an editor that allows for execution of SQL statements, scripts, and PL/SQL anonymous blocks. SELECT statements can be executed to return results in a spreadsheet-like 'grid' or can be executed as a script such to emulate SQL*Plus behavior and output
    • DBA Console allows users with administrative privileges to access DBA features such as database init file configuration, RMAN backup, storage, etc.

    Oracle
    • Inability to run multiple queries on the same database. You can only run one query on a given database.
    • Analytical models created from complex tables isn't accurate, and needs work.
    • Inability to view multiple tables of a database side-by-side. When trying to find correlations between tables, it would help to be able to see them at once on the same page.

    We had already thought of changing to TOAD, but we decided to stick with Oracle SQL Developer until the end.

    I have started to use Toad for Oracle recently because it is easier to sort and filter results, due to their memory sort feature that puts the results from your query in memory so that you don't have to rerun your query. I have used SQL Developer to easily update records in tables that I need to fix. I haven't found an easy way to do this in Toad other than writing SQL insert statements.

    • It gives 100% return on investment as it is free of cost.
    • No need to have multiple tools for each database
    • Considering the employee training, so one can save money on training, as it is not very hard to use so still savings.
