"Essential driver for Mysql connections"
What do you like best about dotConnect Universal?

Very easy to use once installed. All your database clients as well as Microsoft Access will connect directly to mysql databases with this driver.

Just create an ODBC connection and use it from your applications. Driver is working fine and did not cause any problem till now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about dotConnect Universal?

I did not manage to install the driver without Administrator Rights even if it seemed to be possible. Maybe it is a Windows 10 issue, because with previous versions I do not remember having same problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"This tool is practical to extract information quickly"
What do you like best about dotConnect Universal?

You can create reports, insert data in bulk in the tables in a quick way, at least for Campaigns it saves a lot of time when you have to create the records in SugarCRM.

When you have to upload a list of leads it is quite practical because we can put the load with sql instructions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about dotConnect Universal?

You have to have a strong knowledge of sql, additional you must know the tables and their relationships to be able to perform the queries, insert, update in a more effective way.

The response times once you create the sql statement and execute it are a bit high, the tool is very often does not have many options like statistics, connection log. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gets the job done, but improvements NEEDED."
What do you like best about dotConnect Universal?

Easy to make multiple connections between a variety of different sources. The software is very easy to utilize when tying to another SQL server like TOAD Data point, Microsoft SQL, etc. The best part of the software is the sharing feature. Allowing others using dotConnect to work within the workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about dotConnect Universal?

Very slow, multiple lagging moments. Software could use a revamp. The overall look of the software is where the revamp would be needed. The display is sort of out-of-date. Another additional remark I would make is try to simply the software. Someone new to dotConnect would have a very hard time getting started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jordan Sanders of dotConnect Universal

Thank you for letting us know about your experience. We’ll work on improving to meet our customers’ expectations in the future.

"Great connection to so many powerful tools."
What do you like best about dotConnect Universal?

I have used the NetSuite ODBC driver to import data into many different applications that in return has saved countless amount of hours and human errors. The most recent use of this ODBC connector was with a label designer NiceLabel. The setup process was very simple and now I have the ability to live print labels using information being pulled directly from NetSuite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about dotConnect Universal?

Very slow on NiceLabels end, I don't know if that is the actual ODBC driver of if the application is slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
