What do you like best about SQL Developer?

It iIt can feel slow or laggy at times, especially with large queries or connections.

Some features are a bit outdated compared to modern database tools, making the UI feel less polished.s intuitive and easy to navigate, so even complex tasks feel simple.

I also love how it integrates everything queries, tuning, and DB management in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Drastic improvements over newer iterations, has become a better tool than TOAD"
What do you like best about SQL Developer?

It has many options, easy to us UI. The tab system is done well and there are many DBA functions that can be used through the tool like checking tablespaces, currently running jobs and running execution plans for queries.

There is a DBA window that you can attach a connection to and if you have full DBA rights, then you can perform your functions via a UI instead of having to type them in a command prompt Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Developer?

It uses a lot of resources and it can sometimes just crash. When I try to remote into my work computer from home, sometimes the SQL Developer just closes itself. It gives no warning. Never had that issue using Toad.

I also havent been able to locate the table locks and which sessions are causing those locks at the moment. I hope to be able to find that functionality soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User Friendly Interface"
What do you like best about SQL Developer?

SQL Developer is very easy to install, setup and integrate with existing databases. I use it almost everyday. I really like the play button that is used to execute the procedures and packages without having to write additional blocks of code. There are buttons to clear your query screen and your output screen that are very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Multiple settings are needed to configure Format option. It would be better if they provided few templates to choose with preview rather than these settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
