"Good Tool. Does the Job. Prefer PLSQL Developer "
What do you like best about SQL Developer?

Has a nice export query result functionality which supports exporting results to csv, xls, as well as a loader script. Easy to use UI. Provides nice to have interface for accessing DBA objects if you have DBA privileges. Has easy integration with version control tools such as GIT and SVN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Developer?

Not so stable and lags if the query is taking a long time to execute. Hangs if query execution is stopped before completion of a time-consuming query. Cannot keep the application window open for a longer time as the application will stop responding and you will have to restart the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome Database Tool!"
What do you like best about SQL Developer?

I find SQL Developer to be just as powerful / robust as Toad, but SQL Developer is FREE! I've used SQL Developer for many years to interact with Oracle databases. It is very handy for writing queries, reporting, and drilling down into database tables for additional stats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Developer?

The update process of SQL Developer is lacking. You generally have to proactively seek out new updates and manually install them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
