What is a good alternative to Toad for Mac OSX?

I am looking for an alternative to Oracle's Toad for Mac OS X. I currently use this for work on a Windows machine, but I would like to use it natively in OSX.

I am looking for something that specifically handles XMLTYPEs well.

  • No love for SQL Developer by Oracle?(Oops sorry didn't see it was mentioned earlier so I'll just second it.) We used to use TOAD exclusively but due to budgetary issues we reluctantly moved to SQL Developer. It was painful but after an adjustment period it is not bad. Does 95% of the functionality we used in TOAD. They do have a certified MacOS version :

    good luck!

    P.S. it's free! it's not bad for a free product really...
