 Message from: R Squires a certain group of consultants are pushing for SQL Developer

Easy answer: so let them while leaving everyone else alone!

I know, that doesn&#8217;t help. Unfortunately I can&#8217;t help much.
We&#8217;ve had Toad removed from our use and are on SQL Developer now as well.
With the little work I&#8217;ve actually done in coding (lots of work elsewhere
the last 2 years) I&#8217;ve had little exposure to SQL Developer.

I can tell you that with the time it takes to start up, I&#8217;ve defaulted
back to the SQL Plus &#43; Text Editor method. Mainly I&#8217;ve had to do quick
lookups in the database and I&#8217;ve got what I need done in SQL Plus before
SQL Developer loads.

I have a client site where the customer is thinking of switching from Toad for Oracle Suite to SQL Developer because SQL Developer has all the tools needed. Before I&nbsp; could argue that schema diff were one reason to stay with TOAD but now SQL Developer has it and the tool is free. What are some of the strongest cases to use to persuade my client to stay with TOAD. I am partial too, I love the tools but a certain group of consultants are pushing for SQL Developer.
