We've owned the Diag & Tuning for 3+ years. Diag is useful for the
Performance manager (1.5 version is better than the Java-based crap in 1.6 &
>). Never have used Trace or Expert. Evaluated 1.0 version of Change
Management pack. Cost was way too high because it was based on your user
license count, not the number of DBAs. Also, it was Java-based and
sssslllllooooowwww. There are other, cheaper tools running around. Take a
look at HORA (www.keeptool.com) and at Embarcadero's suite of products for
alternatives to OEM.
