Try this one: [https://www.toadworld.com/products/toad-data-point](https://www.toadworld.com/products/toad-data-point)

If you need more oracle and sql server specific features you may need these instead:

> **[Toad for Oracle](https://www.toadworld.com/products/toad-for-oracle)**
>
> Toad for Oracle Improve your productivity when working with Oracle.

> **[Toad for SQL Server](https://www.toadworld.com/products/toad-for-sql-server)**
>
> Toad for SQL Server product page. Increased productivity for SQL Server development and administration

They all have free trials.

Hi John

Is Toad Data Point fully featured, so that it allow for the creation and execution of stored procedures for instance?

I am a developer for Toad for Oracle. I don't know much about the other products.

Creating and executing a stored procedure seems pretty basic, so I would think you can do that in TDP but I don't really know.

Download a trial and see for yourself.

Hi John.

I cant download the free trial here because the IT estate is very tightly controlled.  
Would you know if accessing a database hosted in the cloud would be problem for Toad DP ?

I really know nothing about that product, sorry.

They have their own forum, you can probably get some answers there...
