Devart Excel Add-ins is being used at my organization to help manage a few different SQL server management tasks including but not limited to - source control, unit testing, schema comparisons, event profiling, dev ops automation, index management analysis and query builder. There are more use cases for the Devart Excel Add-ins above and beyond what we are using it for.
- Source control
- Unit testing
- Schema comparisons
Cons
- The data pump feature breaks sometimes
- The profile usage monitoring is slow
- The event profiler is delayed

Microsoft Excel is the most used tool in the software universe. As such, asking Microsoft Excel to be the tool used post data acquisition makes a ton of sense. Almost everyone we hire has some idea on how to use this tool, which decreases the time spend training new employees.
