RE: Re:Anyone using CA products?

Ruth,

It's probably because you work for a government agency. I used to work for the federal government, and have found that a lot of things have changed since I went to private industry. Support and dealings with some vendors (not to mention any names) have changed dramatically. That's still not enough to make me want to go back to that sweatshop.

By the way, CA is less than helpful here, on the Oracle or the DB2 side of the house.

I am using Platinum DesktopDBA. I got an upgrade with no problem and the sales team even came over here to visit and make sure I was satisfied.
