After connecting, the first thing I noticed was the clean UI. It’s easy to create a connection in PL/SQL Developer. In my opinion, it’s a great tool and will really help you work with SQL. It’s often mentioned as being “almost as good” as Toad. It’s often mentioned in reviews and questions about Oracle IDEs as being a good choice if you’re willing to pay the money for the license. I haven’t used it a lot since, but it’s among the three most recommended IDEs when browsing the Internet (along with Toad and SQL Developer). I was very impressed with it back in 2007. I came from university where we used SQL Developer (version 1) and moving into PL/SQL Developer at the time was a big move. PL/SQL Developer was the first IDE that I used when I started my career. So, if you’re a vendor of one of these tools, and I’ve gotten something wrong, please let me know via the comments or the contact page.
Some features may actually exist where I’ve said they don’t, or I might have done something wrong that causes the error. Some were good, and some not so good.Īlso, I didn’t spend a great deal of time with each IDE as that would take too long. The user interfaces were quite different between them.

Many other standard features were implemented in a similar way, such as code complete or exporting data.
Many features seem standard and were implemented in different ways, such as explain plans. The easier a tool is to create a connection, the better.
#CONNECTING TO POSTGRESQL FROM SEQUEL PRO DRIVERS#
Others involved setting up a System DSN on your computer and connecting via that, and others involved installing other drivers and tools just to connect. Some were simple and just involved entering a database, service name, username, and password. This excludes tools like SQL*Plus and SQLcl.īefore we get into my recommendations and more details about each IDE, there were a few things I noticed when testing and analysing these SQL editors.įirst, the connection process was different for many of them. It also excludes data modelling tools and data visualisation tools. While Notepad++ is a great tool and has SQL syntax highlighting, it doesn’t let you run SQL queries. This excludes text editors such as Notepad++.
