What do you like best about SQL Toolbelt Essentials?

I've been using Red-Gate Toolbelt for about 15 years. They changed how I develop. Between syncing structures from environment to environment (SQL Compare), to syncing metadata between environments (SQL Data Compare)... to writing good, nicely formatted SQL quickly (SQL Prompt).... I don't do SQL work without out. Working with other relational databases (like PostGres) just isn't as fast without these incredible tools I have in the SQL Server space. I also like how your license "follows the person," so I can install the tools in all the places I work without licensing noise. Very nice move. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Toolbelt Essentials?

You get what you pay for. Red-Gate isn't cheap, and you end up giving Red-Gate tools to your best and most productive people (because they'll get the most value). Ironically, this only increased the gap between your best and least productive people and something to be mindful of when buying tools for your staff! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
