VERDICT
Data catalog and database documentation tool - dataedo.com
Depends. Buy it if you manage many databases and need a shared, searchable catalog of tables, columns, and business terms. Skip it if you only need to document a handful of schemas — a wiki or spreadsheet does that job.
Medium. Based on 40+ public sources; many snippets truncated, so exact ratings and prices were unverified.
