tool for comparing databases

[Bart Horn]

I am looking for a tool to compare databases.
I tried Embarcadero Change Manager.
Does anyone know an other good tool to analyse differences
between databases.

Thanks Bart Horn

Bart,

I've never used them, but a number of people have recommended the products
available at www.red-gate.com.

Please reply only to the newsgroups.
When posting, inclusion of SQL (CREATE TABLE ..., INSERT ..., etc.) which
can be cut and pasted into Query Analyzer is appreciated.

BP,

I've used them and they are very good (and cheap to buy).

Hi Bart,

Take a look at our schema comparison and synchronization tool:
http://www.berryware.com/sqlmatcher/

It allows you to compare SQL scripts to live databases. It is also
relatively inexpensive and there is a 30 day trial version available.

We use the tools from www.red-gate.com and in addition to working well, they
have great customer service.

I had an upgrade issue and they replied via e-mail within an hour. When I
questioned their answer, they called me 30 minutes after my second e-mail to
clarify my understanding.

In other words, they care about their customers. (BTW - I only spent $290
with them... and they still made a great effort to be sure I was happy with
their product.)

Highly recommended.
