I have not heard that SQL Navigator is being phased out. However, I have heard that Quest Software is more actively developing TOAD than SQL Nav.

There is a related thread on the oradev mailing list, read it here. If you have not done so, I also suggest you subscribe to the oradev mailing list, you can do so here.

TOAD's tab interface seems quicker to get to what I want. Command line SQL Plus for long running scripts and iSQLplus in a pinch. I've even used SQLPal on a keychain drive In places where installing an Oracle client is a problem (uses Java).</p> I’m mostly a TOAD person – SQL Navigator’s endless drill downs to get to object info is maddening.

I’m a DBA, not a developer, but it handles many of the things I need to do with ease. Another plus is that it runs stand-alone without installing (provided you have an oracle client of course).

The latest version on the website is listed as “beta”, but has been stable for me.

It's no longer supported, though. The guy who wrote it was hired by Quest. Eventually, I'll have to switch to TOAD.</p> EZ SQL was a slick little interface to Oracle.
