History[edit]
Jim McDaniel (aka 'TOADman'), a practicing Oracle DBA, originally designed Toad for his own use in the mid-1990s.[1] He called it Tool for Oracle Application Developers: 'TOAD' for short. McDaniel made the tool available to others first as shareware and later as freeware, distributing it freely over the Internet.
As the user base grew, so did the effort of maintenance and development. Finally, McDaniel realized that he could no longer dedicate substantial amounts of time to the growing quantity of software enhancement requests.
Quest Software, established in 1987, acquired TOAD in October 1998.[2] Quest Software was acquired by Dell in 2012 to form Dell Software.[3][4] In June 2016, Dell announced the sale of their software division, including the Quest business, to Francisco Partners and Elliott Management Corporation.[5] On October 31, 2016, the sale was finalized. On November 1, 2016, the sale of Dell Software to Francisco Partners and Elliott Management was completed, and the company re-launched as Quest Software.[6] Toad products are currently part of the Quest Software portfolio.
