dbForge SQL Complete has proven to be an invaluable tool for SQL developers across a wide range of use cases. Users have found that the intellisense feature significantly speeds up the process of writing SQL code, allowing them to write queries more efficiently and with fewer errors. The SQL Formatter, Intelligent SQL completion, and Tab Coloring features are particularly well-liked by users, as they assist in maintaining consistent code formatting and avoid accidental errors. Additionally, the Generate Script As feature has received high praise for its ability to quickly turn query results into IN or SELECT clauses.
The tool is not limited to a single project but is utilized by all developers in the IT department who work with databases. It has greatly improved productivity by speeding up database development and query time through autocomplete and code snippets. Users appreciate the real-time formatting suggestions, correct keyword and database suggestions, spell-checking capabilities, and execution history tracking. With the ability to customize formatting rules and store templates for reuse, dbForge SQL Complete allows developers to work with their personal style while adhering to a consistent CICD style.
Overall, dbForge SQL Complete has become an essential tool for many users who rely on it daily to simplify their work within SQL Server Management Studio. By reducing manual efforts, improving code accuracy, and enhancing programmer efficiency, this tool has made a significant impact on the productivity of SQL developers throughout the organization.
SQL Formatter: Improves Coding Process and Code Readability Several users have found that the SQL formatter in the product speeds up their coding process and improves code readability. It provides out-of-the-box formatting capabilities and allows for detailed customization of formatting options. Seamless Integration with Existing Tools: Convenient to Use Reviewers appreciate that the product can be seamlessly integrated into existing tools, making it convenient to use. This feature enhances productivity by eliminating the need for switching between different software. Intelligent Code Suggestions with SQL Completion and Suggestion Feature The SQL Completion and Suggestion feature has been praised by many users for providing intelligent code suggestions, including foreign key navigation. This simplifies the process of writing JOIN statements and enhances development speed.
Intellisense and phrase completion lag: Some users have experienced occasional delays in the intellisense and phrase completion features, resulting in a less smooth coding experience. These lags can disrupt the workflow and hinder productivity.
Incorrect JOIN clause auto generation: Several reviewers have reported that the automatic generation of JOIN clauses is not always accurate. This can lead to errors or inefficiencies when writing queries, requiring manual intervention to correct them. It adds an extra step in the query writing process and can be time-consuming for users.
Limited support for Azure Data Studio and Azure Synapse Analytics: Customers have expressed their desire for better support and integration with Azure Data Studio and Azure Synapse Analytics. They feel that improvements are needed to enhance compatibility and functionality between these platforms. The lack of seamless integration impacts their ability to effectively work with these tools, limiting their overall efficiency and effectiveness in managing databases.

Good value for the cost
- Speeds up coding process
- SQL formatter cleans up code for readability
- Works nicely inside of tools you already own.

- The JOIN clause auto generation isn't correct all the time
There are better alternatives, including nothing

- Sometimes it can be slow to retrieve the database metadata.
- Updating the software with the activation/deactivation of licenses could be further streamlined.
dbForge SQL Complete saves me so much time so much that I even purchased it for my own use on side projects
- SQL Formatter
- Generate Script As
- SQL Completion and Suggestion
- Better support for Azure Data Studio would be nice
- Integration with Azure Synapse Analytics would also be cool
Great Product. Can't say enough about it.
- Development templates provide a consistent framework
- Srores execution history
- Sometimes crashes. I suspect memory issues. But it is rare
Sql Complete Review
- SQL Complete is used across the entire organization
- It adds value to the IntelliSense and scripting tasks within SQL Server Management Studio. It increases productivity by expanding upon that feature.
- Object Model browsing
- Table Hint and Object suggestions
- Code Formatting
- Cache Refresh could be faster and more accurate
- For each version update, I'd like to not bring back the default snippets. Each time I update Sql Complete the default snippets are added back. This is a bit of a nuisance
SQL Complete = Productivity
- SQL complete allows you to create custom snippets that allow you to store frequently ran queries in shortcuts. The code can be populated within seconds!
- Another great benefit is custom aliases. If you frequently reference the same tables over and over again it gets tiresome to retype the aliases. Storing these can make your code more consistent and save time.
- SQL complete will also highlight the metadata within your database. For example, if you start typing an insert statement you populate code for all the field names by pressing the tab. This is a real-time saver for wide tables!
- I think the default code formatting could be a little more consistent with other platforms I've seen.
- The ability to uncomment/comment a large chunk of code at once would be pretty cool. I am sure SQL complete could make provide this in a very clean and functional way.
An excellent and "complete" integration for SSMS
- Intellisense - it's not just what columns are on what tables, but foreign key navigation as well, which makes writing JOIN statements a breeze.
- Formatting - I think most developers doing any kind of database querying like to see cleanly formatted statements, and dbForge SQL Complete formats well out of the box but also allows you to customize the formatting options to a really detailed degree.
- Tab colors - this sounds like a small thing, but when I'm opening multiple database server connections, being able to tell at a glance which open tabs are for which connection is great. You can manage this to a degree in SSMS without dbForge SQL Complete, but it's a nice touch.
- Every now and then the intellisense isn't current with database changes, but that's easy to fix and happens with SSMS vanilla anyway.
