Clear & Simple Modeling. Great Support. Flexible Licensing. Easy Migrations

Evaluating data modeling tools? Open PowerDesigner and you’ll quickly see it wasn’t built for the data modeler or data architect. Sure it has lots of features, but how easily are those accessed and how much time will it cost you? When compared to ER/Studio, PowerDesigner just doesn’t stack up.

ER/Studio enables users to complete tasks faster and be more productive with:

Clear & simple interface for improved usability
Extensible automation interface and wizards to speed up routine modeling tasks
Improved formatting with auto-layout of diagrams and diagram navigation
Superior model publishing and communication

With automated wizards and layout capabilities, ER/Studio takes substantially less time to complete the same tasks. In a comparative study, 83% of the users found PowerDesigner to be difficult to model in, understand terminology and even generate a report.

Switching to ER/Studio is now easier and less expensive than ever. Embarcadero is offering generous trade-in incentives and migration assistance for ERwin or PowerDesigner users. Plus, our flexible licensing options include concurrent licensing and AppWave, which provides a mobile-like experience for PC software. And Embarcadero provides you with a responsive, expert support team to help you with tough questions and to make the transition easier.
