Microsoft Great Plains is a database that has over 1,000 tables and 11,000 stored procedures and a large amount of other objects contained in SQL. I have looked at many different products to show the differences between the different versions of GP and ApexSQL, in my opinion was the fastest. Since their new changes to ApexSQL Diff they've even surpassed their own record in how long it takes to compare the databases. I validate this because I didn't do an accurate timing 2 years ago but I'm pretty sure the comparison has gone from 10-15 minutes down to less than a few minutes. It's amazing how fast it really works!

Thank you for the fine product your company delivers (ApexSQL Diff). I have caused several companies to purchase this during my career as a DBA as I find it to be the best at reconciling database structure, hands down. I have successfully activated the software and as usual am extremely happy with the upgrade

Thank you for all the help! After working with ApexSQL Diff for so many years it is extremely encouraging to see your involvement in the direction of the products! I still remember when I first started using proc-blaster (many moons and employers ago)! The product line has come a long way since those days and I am encouraged by the direction the applications have gone. :) With each release you have made my life easier :)

ApexSQL Diff is indispensable to me to sync objects between databases, and especially between source control and production (enabling clear view of exact changes going into production) once amended objects are ready for deployment.

Civil Air Patrol had a need for an easy to use, quality tool to solve a Microsoft SQL data/schema synchronization issue. Apex by far was the tool for us. It allowed us to quickly complete the project and allowed us to incorporate automation to allow us to keep that data in sync. This is an awesome tool with excellent customer service to support it. Thanks Apex for helping us out!
