Chose erwin Data Modeler
I was unable to find embarcadero or Datanamic DeZign in the list of other products, but those are two others I have used, along with Visio over the years for data modeling. Erwin is one of the premier tools in the space. I would rate it as a top tool, comparable to …
Chose erwin Data Modeler
Not listed, but I've only used alternatives built into something like the Squirrel SQL editor. That one is semi-functional but lacking many features and, in some instances, just plain wrong. The only pro there is that it's freely available and works over ODBC. I've tried some …
Chose erwin Data Modeler
We, actually, previously used WebSphere Data Architect. Erwin's product is more flexible and has many more interfaces. It integrated well with Oracle, SQL Server and MySQL environments. It also has a better visual representation and better reverse-engineering capabilities.
Chose erwin Data Modeler
erwin was the only option available when I joined the company. I am unaware of any alternatives.
Chose erwin Data Modeler
I have used few other data modeling tools like Toad Data Modeler and SQL Developer Data Modeler. erwin Data Modeler is easy to use and has additional features that make overall data modeling productive and easy to manage.
Chose erwin Data Modeler
Toad is usually a great suite of products. I am a fan of Toad for Oracle particularly. But for data modeling, the ease and features that erwin Data Modeler offers are unbeatable.

Cons
  • erwin Data Modeler allows only 25 entities in a trial version. It really limits you when you want to try out the product before actually deciding to pay for licensing cost. It would be rather helpful if they limit the trial period by days instead.
  • The UI is pretty good but sometimes the large diagrams are hard to manage. A little improvement in that area would be helpful.
