Unit Test also works perfectly. > > **Cons**: On the contrary, Data Generator only partially meets our requirements, since it is based on a document that states how much data needs to be generated and for which tables. As our database is actively developing and new tables are constantly appearing, we have to re-save the document all the time. Although, I would prefer it to work "on the fly", without the constant re-saving. > > We've been using Devart SQL tools for quite a long time and already gotten used to their usability. When we found out that there's Devart DevOps Powershell module, which helps to organize continuous CI using Devart SQL tools, we started to implement our own CI. Eventually, it became clear that some tools only partially meet our requirements, while others fulfill them completely. ----- ### "Wonderful if you need database help" — 5.0/5 > **Steven** | *20 October 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Export/Import data feature is like an easy SSIS wizard. Very handy. > > **Cons**: Downloading the software was very slow and took several attempts to install. ----- ### "dbForge Review" — 5.0/5 > **Onur** | *31 October 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use was impacting us. Because it's really hard to find a tool for connecting and managing databases but dbForge solves this issue. > > **Cons**: The UI functionality can be increased and more features can be added for managing the database operations. > > My overall experience with dbForge is positive. ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/86576/dbforge-devops) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
