What are the pros & cons of these two products?
Can Erwin handle large database? What I mean is the limitation on number of objects such as tables, indexes, constaints, etc.
We are currently using Oracle Designer. Looks like Erwin is more user-friendly... but we are not sure if Erwin is designed to handle large database. Our database grows quite a bit in terms of both data and physical objects.
Any thougths on that would be appreciated. Thanks!

yes ERwin can handle large database I reverse engineer 5000 tables in ERWIn within 5 min.
I prefer ERWIN then designer. Desginer will work with oracle ...
what about other database ???

I use Designer and I like it, but there are many limitations.
Among them are:
1. lack of books available for self training
2. a huge learning curve
If a group of developers and admins know the tool well, it can greatly benefit a project.

Both of these products are very capable, we have both. We also have some DBA's that use one, some the other, some both. I think some of the features of Designer have been over-sold and under-delivered. I prefer Erwin over Designer for 4 simple reasons:
Erwin is less expensive
Erwin doesn't require a repository
Erwin is easier to learn and use
Erwin works well with many databases

Thanks for your inputs! They are very helpful.
How do you perform backup & recovery on Erwin?
In Designer there are import/export utilities. Does Erwin have similar utilities for backup & recovery?
