What do you like best about DB Amp?

DBAmp turns Salesforce into a Linked Server and provides built-in tools for creating and refreshing a copy of your data in SQL Server. This simple tool has allowed us to fill the reporting gap created by the Salesforce object structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DB Amp?

My only concern is how to port this to SQL as a service because linked servers are not supported. I have faith that this will continue to be an integral part of our repertoire. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DB Amp:

This is a technical tool and you will need some technical assistance setting it up. Make sure to involve your SQL DBA or tech architect. However, you will receive superb support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DB Amp solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reporting! Before DBAmp we had licensed an expensive solution to keep a copy of the database in MYSQL. The performance was terrible, table names were truncated, and the tool used a large amount of Salesforce resources. Now we can do reporting directly from SQL tables via Power BI.
