Hi all,

Would really like to hear any feedback regarding anyone comparing these two .Net data providers (or even some of the others out there - Datadirect, etc.).

We're at decision making time, and things like the differences in calling stored procs, returning Ref Cursors, are starting to mean we need to pick one. My gut says go with the Oracle one (keep the technology stack based on the one vendor), but they kludge too many things. (just like in ADO, where they ignored the standard for stored proc calling).

Anyway, any comments about your use, likes and dislikes of either would be much appreciated.

Ciao
