Since we are plugging our favorite DB tools I swear by Database Workbench Pro (http://www.upscene.com/). The author is extremely responsive (he'll give you a custom build, usually in 48 hours, when you find a bug), it supports a nice variety of databases and has some killer tools like cross-database data migration, schema migration, schema differentiation, ERD generation etc etc.
Check it out, well worth the money but Windows only so I find myself in VMWare with it these days.
