But what about developers? Which ER tools can we use for database design? I'm not talking about the databases with 5 tables, I mean more complex designs.
- MySQL Workbench: a tool developed by Sun. It exports design into the MySQL-specific code, thus you have to modify it by hand in the text editor. Pros: you can show the graphic database design to the customer. Contras: MySQL-specific SQL and ... BUGGY !! (at least - the latest version. Just click the "Not NULL" checkbox in the fields list ... and the program dies).
- Database Designer for PostgreSQL from MicroOLAP. Never used but look at the prices: starting from 124.95 USD for personal use. I think the tool is good, but the price...
Any more ideas guys?
