How Database Documentation Helped Database Development at RedBook Solutions [Video Testimonial]

Listen to Jay Michael Heidbreder talk how Dataedeo helped further update Redbook Solutions' main business ERP software that has been developed for decades:

Key points made by Jay:

  1. There was a need for comprehensive documentation of primary database to be able to further develop it
  2. Existing original documentation was decades old and did not reflect changes made since then
  3. Other tools (SSMS, Visio) don't have enough documentation capabilities
  4. Documentation project took third of the expected time
  5. Collaborate more efficiently within internal development teams
  6. Design is not obvious to newcomers and outside vendors
  7. Dataedo helped document and share "tribal knowledge" and bridge that gap
  8. Online documentation made it easy to navigate and search for items
  9. Dataedo is fun and made the entire team's job easier
