"SQL Developer as everyday tool"

Instability and plenty of annoying bugs, which leads to restarting SQL developer at least twice a day (and I'm not counting that it at least twice a day dies spontaneously) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Database Tool that grows with you"

4.5/5

What do you like best about SQL Developer?

I've been able to connect to several variants of databases with a single installation of Oracle SQL Developer.

By utilizing the External Plugins DLL extension, I've successfully used this tool to interface with IBM DB2, PostgreSQL, Oracle DBs, MySQL, Sybase, SQLServer, and Access.

Whatever you throw at this thing, you can find a way to connect to your database.

The UI is easy to walk through and once you learn how to pin tables, it is an easy tool to compare tables side by side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Developer?

Installation was not as straight forward or out-of-the-box.

Plugins can be a little tricky at first and may take a few tries to get configured correctly.

It would be great if there was an easier way of sharing connections with colleagues to allow for quicker team set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
