ERBuilder is a Great tool that offers more value for the price

My experience with ERBuilder was exceptional. From the very beginning, I was impressed with their professional and courteous customer support. They were quick to respond to any questions I had and always went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. Not only was their support team top-notch, but their product was also of great quality. As someone who has worked with various data modeling tools in the past, I found ERBuilder to be intuitive and user-friendly. It made the entire process much smoother and more efficient. Overall, I would highly recommend ERBuilder to anyone in need of a reliable and effective data modeling tool. Their exceptional customer service and great product make them a standout organization to work with.

PROS

I have been using ER Builder for a while now, and it provides all the features and functionality offered by other competitive tools available in the market. However, this tool is available at a much lower price than its counterparts. I am the only user of this tool in my small company, but it has brought Enterprise-Class tools to my doorstep. This has enabled me to implement the same modeling processes that large companies with Enterprise Architecture groups have set up. The tool has proven to be a game-changer for my company as it has allowed me to model our architecture and infrastructure in a more organized and streamlined manner. The implementation of this tool has brought a significant improvement in our company's overall efficiency and productivity. Furthermore, the tool has also provided me with the opportunity to collaborate with other team members on different projects, which has further streamlined the modeling process and saved us a lot of time. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the tool I am using and would highly recommend it to other small companies looking to improve their modeling processes while staying within their budget.

CONS

Would like the Git feature throughout all options. It is normal for source control to be in all editions.

Reason for choosing ERBuilder

The software offers great value for its price. Its features are hard to beat.

Great Tool for the Money

PROS

For me this product is much easier to use and has a lot of feature than other products costing twice as much. We are not a large company to cost is important.

CONS

Although I work with ERBuilder almost everyday, I have not rally found any cons that would make me second guess my purchase.

Reasons for switching to ERBuilder

Tired of using multiple tools for the same purpose.

Vendor Response

Support for using generated CRUD screens is very poor

I was excited about the potential of generating CRUD screens for simple tables. The tool does generate HTML screens but they are not usable. They do not provide any direction on how to connect to the database, except that "you must do it manually"

PROS

reverse engineering of schema to create ER diagram worked well. However, that is not the feature I was interested in when purchasing.

CONS

There should be a user support forum where users can help each other, but I have not found anything like that. Support from the company on how to do things is very poor.

Reason for choosing ERBuilder

I am only in the evaluation stage, but we will not be using the product due to the lack of support. Since I have a one year enterprise license, I will keep looking at the problem now and then. Especially if ERBUILDER notices this review and addresses my support question

Vendor Response

First, let me thank you for your review. As explained before by our support team, our tool does not allow you to generate an entire web application (backend and frontend). With ERBuilder you can generate only CRUD UI as mentioned on our website. It generates only the front-end source code. It does not generate backend source code. You have to develop the backend yourself outside our tool. Our support team answered to your different emails on time. We are very disappointed by reading your negative review. We don't understand why you're rating us on a feature our software doesn't offer (and no other competitive data modeling tool does).

Great tool!

PROS

It is an inexpensive tool that helps the data engineer to build relational databases. As a freelancer, generating DDL files and HTML documentation for my clients is critical, and ERBuilder allows me to do it perfectly.

CONS

Something I miss is a function in other tools that mirrors a table in your diagram. Depending on how your data is structured, having duplicated images of the tables in the data model avoids crossing relationships and makes it clearer to read and understand the database logic.It would also be great to have volumetry calculations for large databases; it is handy.

Vendor Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with ERBuilder. We appreciate your feedback regarding the feature you miss, and we will take it into consideration for future updates.
