It's a fine line. Change the phrasing a bit and you _can_ talk about your own product. For example, the original response could have been something like:

There are a number of tools designed to do this. A list can be found at http://www.databaseanswers.com/modelling_tools.htm

btw: One tool, DeZign for Databases, is available from the organization with which I work. Contact me offline or get more information at http://www.datanamic.com/dezign/index.html

In this group, we have become hyper-sensitive about self-promotion and spam. We have had a few people who have been absurdly persistant.

The above might get an "it's spam" reaction which could be easily ignored as it provides alternatives up front AND puts the 'advertisment' after the signature as a footnote.

Probably most important when being accused of spam here (which you did) - apologize and don't argue. Thank you!
