Yeah, SAT (Standalone Analysis Tool) is an option. The problem is that it
has a very minimal set of features, compared to DAT. So you could spend a
while trying to figure out what happened with SAT, while with DAT you could
do the same in minutes, if not less.

Bottom line : SAT exists ... as a last resort.
