I usually offer a pretty simple method of choosing Oracle CASE vs some other product.

If you are going to be developing using Oracle Forms, Reports and Menus, then Oracle CASE is the only choice. The productivity from using the generators will more than pay for the investment in software and training.

If all you are interested in is data modelling and generating a database schema, there are lots of choices.
