• We've been using SQL Data Compare for a couple of years and SQL Compare for just over a year and we've been extremely happy with the tools. Further, we're happy with the company. We identified a problem with how SQL Data Compare was selecting data and they fixed it. I've only ever had that experience with Embarcadero. Every other company I've worked with gives me the "We'll note it and address it in the next release which is scheduled for 2012." We use Imceda/Quest LiteSpeed and Lumigent LogExplorer, but with the experience we've had with RedGate, I'm going to push a thorough evaluation of their offerings in this area.

    The only problem we've had with RedGate is that the tools have been so good that, in our mixed shop, Oracle and SQL Server, the Oracle people are jealous. Keep up the good work.

    Great interview too.
