57 Dataedo Testimonials

"Dataedo is improving my work a lot. With documentation, the learning curve is smaller and I can have more time to work."

"I had two requirements for an ERD Tool. Pull live objects from SQL, and allow editing relationships without modifying any live constraints. Dataedo does this perfectly. And I really like the export utility, as the PDFs fit right into our document libraries."

"Dataedo is simply the best database documentation tool out there. It generates super neat and beautiful document with simple but sophisticated ERD. We were able to set up a process to keep the documentation up-to-date using the command line utility. Everything just works. The reception has been incredible - after seeing the documentation for one database, everyone is requesting one for theirs."

"I could not do work without Dataedo - it is a wonderful tool. I'm a data specialist with a background in data architecture. When I started here, there was no source document of reference for the data environment. It would have taken me a couple of years to complete a task of putting together source documents, this allows me to complete database documentation within two days."

"Dataedo helped us document a third-party database that did not follow DB best practices. It didn't have any foreign keys, and Dataedo helped us track relationships and made data easier to find. The tool is helping us be more consistent with our integration, and it's helping developers with less experience find the data that they are looking for. It is regularly used by all our developers for all our own and third-party databases. I would recommend the tool to anyone with a similar issue to solve."

"Modules are really helpful. We can group different database objects together to present different aspects of functionality. The ER diagrams are invaluable when it comes to this. This is a very well thought out feature. I also love the progress bar feature! It’s a very useful way to track how much we’ve done over time. I know it’s a simple feature, but so happy to have it! Above all, we use the export to HTML all the time. I’m extremely passionate about properly documenting our databases and managing our information effectively, and it is done thanks to Dataedo."

"I am finding Dataedo to be a great product! Having used many database documentation tools over the years, I am glad to have found a product that is so powerful and easy to use. The ability to customize documentation according to individual requirements, while highlighting areas for improvement, helps to deliver true customer value. I believe that this tool could help many companies solve their database documentation problems."

"I used Dataedo to document a project in which we had used some over-seas development. Not only it was helpful in creating documentation, but it proved essential when it came time to bug fix and troubleshoot. The fact it enabled us to update and provide consistent documentation paid for itself. Thanks to Dataedo I spent more time figuring out the connection string to the instance than I did running the report. It was a great experience. I'm continuing to use it with no expectation of stopping anytime soon."

"We use Dataedo to document multiple databases and our data warehouse in Dev, QA and Prod environments (MySQL and SQL Server). We generate output daily as a scheduled task and publish it on our internal website for technical and business users. Dataedo helped us save a lot of precious time. We are looking to use it for more databases in the future. Dataedo is more than we expected and I would definitely recommend it to others."

"Dataedo makes it easy for our team to provide documentation about our data warehouse tables in an attractive and professional looking format. It is easy to use and the documents look great. I can recommend it to anyone who needs to document their database."

"At Dovel, we use Dataedo to generate searchable documentation of our extensive database. Dataedo provides web-based documentation that the entire team can access as well as the ability to generate Excel sheets so we can work with stakeholders to map new data to our database. Dataedo has simplified the process of creating this documentation, making it easy to distribute the entire database documentation or just sections to our various user communities."

"I use Dataedo to assist me in documenting a complex enterprise application database. It has saved me a lot of time and proved to be great value for the amount of time it saved me. Dataedo is very easy to use but powerful, works well with SQL Server and produces nice output in all formats. Ideally I would like our team to use Dataedo for all database documentation."

"We documented our databases in Dataedo to outline the rules, standards, and logic for BA's, business owners as well as data analytics. As I am using the tool weekly it's nice it is so easy to use. We might use Dataedo for other projects in the future. I would recommend it to other people."

"Dataedo is an easy tool to make a functional and elegant documentation. I like the fact that it stores documentation in a Dataedo repository, outside the documented database. I would recommend it to others."

"We use Dataedo for documenting the database of our main software. It's a central reference for the developers and the analysts and we share Data Dictionary with third parties who develop BI system. What I like about it is that it's easy to find out what's not documented and a well-done Data-Dictionary in PDF. I would definitely recommend it to others."
