What differentiates Oracle Database from other similar products?
The point features are superior because they were created as standard tools; there is no need to add third-party products; you can do - Verification of PL / SQL procedures that render the tool useless for the database server, and so on. It is not necessary to install it. When an issue emerges after installing the tool on the database server, the tool may be used to troubleshoot it. It includes the standard Oracle development tools for free, so if you don't have access to other paid tools like ObjectBrowser, you'll have to rely on this one. Without having to execute a program, I was able to check for PL / SQL problem symptoms.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
As it is a widely used Oracle database development and maintenance tool, even customers with security restrictions on what software may be used can quickly gain permission to install it on a customer-rented PC. You may use this tool by itself to refer to different entries in the database, run SQL, and create PL/SQL. The SQL Developer can be used to troubleshoot database server issues. Even if you want someone else to manage the database, you may utilize the GUI to make it easier to explain.
What do you dislike most about this product?
As a GUI tool, I'd want to make it a bit easier to use; it's difficult to understand, and the operation is probably a little inconsistent because I'm using Java. The procedure looks to be slow, most likely as a result of the use of java.exe to execute SQL Developer.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
There are various high-performance third-party solutions available; but, due to security requirements, they may not be deployable on the server. In this case, it is useful as a standard tool that can do a range of jobs. The development tool has a significant cost-cutting benefit since it can completely handle basic database maintenance and development.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Unique Features

What differentiates Oracle Database from other similar products?
Unique Database Services That Make Oracle the Best Choice for Your Company’s Success.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It is the most powerful database available. Oracle is used as a database by almost the entire financial industry. Oracle's most likely feature is security. Their security is extremely strong, and their encryption is both protective and unbreakable.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The most common arguments we get to hear from an Oracle competitor or an Oracle-hater include the following: Oracle is expensive – yes, we agree that Oracle can be more expensive than quite a few DBMS products. But it is definitely worth the money. In addition to being the best in its domain, Oracle now offers free Oracle XE to give MySQL a run for its money. Oracle is complex – well, Oracle is flexible yet strong too. People who have trained for years as an OracleDBA reap tantalizing rewards in terms of paychecks and perks.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Oracle Database is very powerful and enriched tool with unrivaled scripting for creating databases at various scales and segments.
