Watch this video to learn about the many tools available in ER/Studio Enterprise including:

• ER/Studio Data Architect: The heart of the Enterprise suite, this product supports all the popular DBMS platforms, contains a data dictionary system to share components across models and can help you do more than just logical and physical modeling.
• ER/Studio Business Architect: Business users and data architects can improve alignment and productivity through conceptual and business process modeling. Based on the BPMN standard and fully integrated into the ER/Studio Repository, this tool is great for linking data to process and people.
  
• ER/Studio Software Architect: Completely NEW to the ER/Studio family, this rich application modeling tool supports UML 2.0 to assist software architects in visually analyzing, designing and implementing complex application and data structures.
• ER/Studio Repository: This server-side model management system helps modeling teams improve collaboration and reuse of data through a repository for versioning, security and component sharing.
  
• ER/Studio Portal: This “Google” like search and reporting engine provides a centralized self-service portal to search, browse and report on the repository metadata in near real time. It practically eliminates the need for one-off reports and spreadsheets needed to communicate with non-modelers.
• ER/Studio Add-Ons: A number of other tools are available to complement your ER/Studio investment. Industry standard models and patterns can jumpstart any project with Universal Data Models and schemas can be validated with Schema Examiner.

Watch this video to learn how you can:

• Centralize reporting and processes: Browse, search and report on metadata in the ER/Studio Repository.
• Reduce metadata redundancy: Check in your changes to the repository to ensure that metadata is accurate and relevant.
• Eliminate stand-alone spreadsheets and documents: Save tons of time that you can use to do “real” work, because there’s no more need for manual generation of reports when the models are changed.

Watch this video to learn how you can:

• Use object commenting to streamline communication and workflow status with other users.
• Place workflow comments on objects, making it easier to work with models that are in “draft” status and have drawing shapes, workflow notes in the definitions or even prefix/suffixes on object names.
• Prevent model metadata from being “polluted.” Since modelers can place comments on objects with ER/Studio Enterprise, those comments can be synched to the portal to clearly communicate with non modelers.
