Oracle Database Discussions

Hi Guys,

Is there a consensus view on a decent GUI interface for managing Oracle instances. In particular something equivalent to SQL Server Management Studio - something that allows you to do DBA tasks and write ad hoc queries against the database?

The reason I ask is that I'm just having a play with Enterprise Manager (the web based version) and I've got to be honest - it's pretty hard going. Even something as simple as adding a table is very tedious when compared to SQL Server Management Studio.

I'm just downloading SQL Server Developer to see how that looks but was wondering if there was a de facto standard that lots of people like and use.

Many thanks in advance

Simon

PS - Typing the SQL in by hand is not an option for me
