Keeping the data safe is the most important part of any DBA's job. SQL Backup Pro will help you create smaller, more secure, fully verified backups.

• Manage and schedule regular backup jobs from a central UI.
• Use high-performance compression to create smaller, faster SQL Server backups.
• Protect your data with up to 256-bit AES encryption.

You can also easily schedule regular restores and include an optional DBCC CHECKDB to fully verify your backups’ integrity.

SQL Compare Standard and SQL Data Compare Standard help you compare and deploy database changes quickly, simply, and with zero errors.

• Compare and synchronize schema and data within SSMS.
• Generate T-SQL scripts to update one database to match the schema and the contents of another.
• Speed up the deployment of new database schema updates.
• Eliminate mistakes migrating database changes, or copying lookup data, from dev, to test, to production.
• Quickly fix problems by restoring damaged or missing data to a single row.

SQL Data Compare Standard also lets you copy lookup data from development databases to staging or production, and damaged or missing data can be restored to a single row, without the need for full database recovery.

In a troubleshooting situation, every second counts. SQL Monitor quickly alerts you to problems, offers insight into what went wrong, and provides you with suggestions on what to do next.

• Get alerts within seconds of a problem occurring on your servers, so you can respond fast.
• Fix problems faster with embedded advice and suggestions on which steps to take next.
• Drill down using historical data to help you identify the cause of a problem.

Historical data lets you compare patterns and makes it easy to see when a deviation from normal behavior occurs, so you can pinpoint when the problem arose and understand what could have triggered it. 

Documenting your databases is necessary, but isn’t much fun. SQL Doc generates full database documentation automatically, so you don't have to do it by hand.

• Eliminate tedious and time-consuming manual documentation tasks
• Satisfy audit requirements by keeping complete documentation
• Document a database with a couple of clicks in SSMS
• Keep teams up to date by distributing documentation

SQL Doc is ideal for database professionals who need to quickly produce high quality database documentation. It integrates with SSMS, so you can document a database by right-clicking in the Object Explorer. You can create documentation in HTML, Microsoft Word, or Compiled HTML Help files.
