"Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Management Studio"
What do you like best about Microsoft SQL Server?

The best feature I like best about MS SQL Server 2014 is that it stores and retrieves data as requested by our main software application Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The Linux platform is new to MS SQL Server 2014 and I'm glad Linux compatibility is now included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft SQL Server?

What's there to dislike about Microsoft? They're the second most valuable company after Amazon. The price of the product could be less. Even the upgrade price is an arm and a leg! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
