What I like best about dbForge Studio for SQL Server is how it dramatically enhances productivity and code quality in day-to-day database development. The intelligent code completion and smart suggestions are fast, context-aware, and help reduce syntax errors, especially when working in complex schemas.
I also really appreciate the visual query builder, which makes constructing and optimizing queries much easier — particularly for complex joins or when collaborating with less experienced team members. The built-in SQL formatter and code snippets help enforce consistent standards across the team and speed up development.
Another highlight is the comprehensive database management tools — schema compare, data compare/sync, and backup/restore utilities are all integrated into one interface, which saves time and reduces the need to switch between different tools.
Overall, dbForge Studio feels like an all-in-one environment that makes SQL Server development faster, cleaner, and more enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
