RE: Toad vs SQL Navigator

We have sqlnav here at my site, it's cool and all but pretty expensive.  I really liked ezsql and am sad to see it go away (damn shame).  I have a question, since it's no longer available for sale how illegal would it be for me to obtain a key from someone to use it?  I mean I'd love to pay the 100 bucks for it, but there seems no way to get it and I don't want to pay for toad.

Lets say some independent record company/band makes a great album and then 2 years later the band breaks up and the company dissolves.  Since there are no means for me to purchase the album anymore,  is it illegal to get a copy from a friend to enjoy it?

Instead of sqlnav I'd recommend getting pl/sql developer from Allround Automations www.allroundautomations.nl.  I first heard about it from Christopher Spence and when I checked it out myself it does everything that sqlnav will do.  The great thing is that it's only 150 bucks!  I'm sure there might be a couple of features in SQLNav that pl/sql developer lacks but IMHO it definitely wouldn't justify the price difference. Later, Ivan

Hi All,

We are looking at purchasing TOAD or SQL Navigator from Quest. I think they have purchase EZSQL also which I liked(good and cheap). I guess there goal is to
eliminate the competition.  I have some experience with free version of TOAD but not with SQL Navigator.
Can someone share there pros/cons,why purchase one over the other, etc. if they have used both of these products?

Thanks
Rick
