Besides all other comments --

Make sure to take a look at the latest release: 2.1.5 - it has quite
some bugfixes and some additional features.

And as a potential customer recently said:
"As I mentioned I'm overall pleased with my experience with DBW
and indeed my impression was that you've focused on the "real" rather
than the "visual" stuff."

I can tell you that DBW is packed with small features like keyword
warnings for object names, auto-upper triggers or simple ASC/DESC
indices from the Table Editor (see the toolbar button "Field Specials"
on the Table Editor) that simply increase your productivity and
shorten your development time.

As for the database-compare, expect this to be included in version
2.2 or 2.3...
