    Chose dbForge SQL Tools
    dbForge SQL complete stacks up nicely against the competitors I listed based on a number of factors including, but not limited too, speed, price, scalability. On the speed side, I'm specifically referencing the ability to write large chunks of code very fast which ends up …

    Chose dbForge SQL Tools
    SQL Complete appeared to do what was required. It has a very short evaluation period. We still have our day jobs to do, and hence can not dedicate the time necessary to understand and work with the product. You get bombarded by the salespeople (until they get your money!) who …

    Redgate SQL Toolbelt is 10 times the price for similar functionality. ApexSQL Complete is not as user-friendly as dbForge.

    Chose dbForge SQL Tools
    I still use the Redgate products, but only because I was using them before I invested in SQL Complete. I have not reviewed the dbForge versions.

    Chose dbForge SQL Tools
    Redgate has some great tools for database work, but ultimately what fit best for my needs and use case scenarios was dbForge SQL Complete. I felt like I had to have multiple Redgate tools installed to achieve the same thing as having dbForge SQL Complete installed. They're not …

    dbForge SQL Complete is well suited for professionals that have to write code all day. In my role in the business intelligence department we are writing SQL pretty much all day. Having a tool that helps us do that faster, in a cleaner way is pretty awesome and something that pays for itself quickly.

    Pros
    Devart
    • 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!

    Cons
    Devart
    • Sometimes it can be slow to retrieve the database metadata.
    • Updating the software with the activation/deactivation of licenses could be further streamlined.
