More Table Design To Consider
So, looking at the comments I see mostly a tilt towards get it done. I certainly understand a desire for designers, if done correctly, they can be a great boon to productivity. It is the getting them right part that is tricky.
One of the comments talked about this being the best value of Erwin. There has been discussion before about us and modeling and one thing to recognize is that we will have a script import capability. So, you use Erwin, it generates a DDL script, import that to your project and we are ready to go. Not a great round-trip, always synchronized experience but if you have favorite tools you can share information back and forth. This is one of the great values of our product focusing on SQL scripts as the foundation of the truth.
Thanks for all the input so far.
