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.

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.

We have raised issues with Devart but they appear to have no interest in maintaining bread & butter functionality. Guess they are focused on the next bright shiny ball in the room, and not the day-to-day stuff that most teams have to deal with. Upgrades cause activation errors, the company blames the customers.

It is well suited to DBAs or database engineers who work with databases daily, however, it is also a good aid to those who occasionally work with a database as it will aid their interactions through suggestions/code completion, etc if they are forgetful around how to form SQL syntax.

I work as a Data Analyst within SSMS daily. SQL complete greatly increases my productivity and honestly just makes writing SQL code more fun! The days of manually typing field names, frequently used queries, alias, etc. are over for me. The things I love the most are the custom snippets. I have a whole slew of them I use daily which prevents me from having to type the same thing over and over. SQL complete is great for any repetitive tasks you do!

If you're not in a database management app every day, dbForge SQL Complete might be overkill for you. I know some of my team members are just as happy with Azure Data Studio and a few extensions. I walk through a lot of production support issues, so being able to clearly tell which environment I'm working in, at a glance (QA, dev, staging, prod backup, etc), is a huge help for me. I also pick through generated SQL from an ORM, and dbForge SQL Complete makes it easy to comb through that. SQL Complete is also excellent for finding where (or if) a certain column or table or view is referenced within the database(s) on a given server. This is immensely helpful when I'm working in an area I'm not very familiar with.
