Regarding enterprise level data modelling, I believe PowerDesigner is obvious the Top one.
We used Power Designer in our data warehouse project to migrate from SAS to Hadoop.
Power Designer provided huge benefit on the metadata design, data modelling and data lineage. We also used power designer to generate customized model related reports. We are really happy about the robust data modelling and forward-engineer capability of Power Designer. We had about 4 major designers and one architect to support modelling of different LOB with multiple phases covering concept modelling, logical modelling and physical modelling. Power Designer really handled the work pretty cool.
