Pros	Quest Software Reverse Engineering: I love the way we can import an SQL file containing schema meta data and generate ER diagram out of it. This is specifically useful if you are implementing erwin Data Modeler for an existing database. Forward Engineering: We use this feature very frequently. Where we do database changes in our physical and logical data models and then generate deployment scripts for the changes made. Physical vs Logical Models: I like to have my database model split into physical and logical models and at the same time still linked to each other. Any changes you make to logical model or physical model shows up in the other. Incentivized Ravinder Gupta Senior Oracle Database Administrator Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic

Alternatives Considered	Quest Software Not listed, but I've only used alternatives built into something like the Squirrel SQL editor. That one is semi-functional but lacking many features and, in some instances, just plain wrong. The only pro there is that it's freely available and works over ODBC. I've tried some of the other free ones like Creately but didn't have much success. Incentivized Sean Zef Data Admin Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Quest Software It is difficult to assign a monetary value to it. The initial learning curve was fairly long. It allows us to have better support documentation. It allows ease of communications between functional units. Incentivized Rina Falkovich Data Architect Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic
