Challenges faced

Hexagon is a big, multifaceted player in the tech market—and while database management is not the heart of their operations, it's still a vital part of Hexagon's clockwork internal functioning, handled by the IT department. And, as it always happens, when the mechanism of a company grows both in scope and complexity, there is always room for optimization and adoption of new tools. That's the story of the Israel branch of Hexagon, where Vladimir Gorscov, IT Manager, sought for a way to overcome a few issues that accumulated over time.

01
Insufficient toolset for internal database management
02
Time-consuming routine operations with data
03
The growing need to handle all tasks with one solution

In other words, there was a need to find a single feature-rich IDE for Oracle Database that could help the company's IT staff get their daily tasks done much faster. A search led Vladimir to dbForge Studio for Oracle, which promised a few notable advantages over the previously adopted products. The interface was clean and simple. The feature set was hefty enough to meet his demands. The detailed documentation was a nice addition that would help master the Studio's key capabilities in virtually no time.

"dbForge Studio for Oracle is the easiest tool to work with, it provides everything we require with efficiency and high performance. It saves us lots of time and makes the work with our Oracle databases very easy. The first month of use was enough to prove that it was a cost-effective choice."
Vladimir Gorscov
Information Technology Manager at Hexagon

Results achieved

+20%
productivity boost
over the first month

It was no surprise that the Studio easily lived up to its promise. The first month gave a nice 20% growth in overall productivity. Considering that the database management process had already been set up quite well, despite the issues mentioned above, it was a solid achievement. Most of all, Vladimir noted the simplicity of the UI and the functional power under the hood.

Now, let's take a look at the top three features singled out by Vladimir.

Key features Vladimir is excited about

Context-aware code completion, formatting, and debugging

dbForge Studio for Oracle boasts a wide range of coding assistance tools, including context-aware code completion and relevant object suggestions, smart code formatting, an expandable library of code snippets, a PL/SQL debugger, and a query profiler. All of these tools make daily work with queries a breeze.

Database management

There's just too much to explore here that we'll have to limit ourselves to a list of essentials. These include visualization of database structures on diagrams, quick and versatile editing of database objects and table data, and, finally, export and import of Oracle schemas and data with 14 most popular formats at hand.

Database administration

The administration capabilities of the Studio comprise three key features. Security Manager offers convenient management of user accounts, roles, and privileges. Session Manager tracks session statistics in order to minimize delays and downtime in database performance. Event Monitor helps keep an eye on server events, sending and receiving alerts and pipe messages in case of need.
