    Management Studio 2005 is awesome, but 2008 is much better with its built-in intellisense, which saves me a lot of time over manually typing goofy table names. Overall a really useful tool. I can't say much about the price because I've never had to pay for it.

    Being able to see the query execution plan has made performance tuning much easier for me. I don't have enough experience with other SQL management tools so I cannot speak much in terms of comparison but I'm definitely happy with SQL Server.

    While probably not the most user friendly Database management software there is, for the price (free on www.microsoft.com) I can hardly complain about how well the express version of SQL manager works.

  • st3v3n expert

    Does anybody know a good tool to compare databases?

    So I'm able to see which tables are different, which stored procedures are different (or missing), and in the tables, which data is different.

    some features I have observed SSMS 2008:-

    1) with the use of registered servers and Server Groups, the query editor can now send T-SQL statements to multiple servers with a single execute statement.

    2) T-SQL debugger. This helps us to understad the flow of the code.

    3)customizable tabs. we can now even see the process id in tab name.

    Must be installed before Visual Studio or you will get errors. That's probably the most annoying thing about getting this program.
