Only road-tested product available in this category that I\'ve seen

I used Persistence several years ago on another project. They have a quality OR mapping tool, and the caching support is valuable for performance. I am glad to see they have embraced the Eclipse platform and are offering not just a J2EE solution but also a POJO product.

Solid product, broad feature set which includes O/R mapping and caching - don\'t know of any other products with such a complete story for high transaction systems

Very nice plug-in for model-driven development. I would like to see this integrated with one of the UML modelling tools!

A very nice plug-in for managing the data tier of an application. Has some very nice features that integrates the tool in to the normal flow of development. For instance, the code is generated automatically when it is changed (unlike other such tools that I have looked at that require a developer to initiate a build). The tutorial is well written and very thorough and installation couldn't be any easier. The GUI is intuitive if you are familiar with using Persistence's product but even without that experience their tutorial does a good job walking you through it.

I really o­nly had o­ne complaint after using this - when defining the attributes (or State as it is called in the UI) I could not tab between the columns in the table, so you would enter the name hit tab thinking you are going to the data type field but would instead be moved to the buttons. This means you have to use the mouse to move between the fields. This simply makes enter the attributes a more tedious process.

Overall I was very pleased with the plug-in and think they have done a nice job simplifying the development of the data access  layer of an application.
