Compairson between UniDac and the other DAC products

Post by kurtbilde » Sat 15 Mar 2008 16:12

Hi,

I don't get it... Please explain the differens between UniDAC and the other DAC's. I have ODAC and SDAC - why should I still use them and not change to UniDac?

Is there something I should take into considaration - speed, support for client / no client ect.?

Why is standard the right version for users with other DAC's?

Is there going to be a "special" deal for folks with more than one DAC product?

UniDAC will not support some specific server functionality that is supported by ODAC, SDAC, etc. If the functionality supported in UniDAC suits your needs, you can use UniDAC.

UniDAC is based on other DACs, therefore there should not be significant difference.

UniDAC Standard Edition includes no providers. Each installed xDAC adds support for the corresponding provider (e.g. ODAC installs the Oracle provider).

As you are finished with both MS SQL and Oracle support please specify...

You can get this information by comparing features list of UniDAC, ODAC and SDAC.

Yes, the speed should be the same. More exact results we will provide with/after the release.
