"Nasty Error Message"
Version: SQL Server Compare 1.0

Small, lightweight

It ran, but when trying to compare it displayed an unmeaningful error message about a missing DLL
Poor quality -
"Amazing, and it's free!"
Version: SQL Server Compare 1.0
Pros
Compares tables, sp's, indexes, triggers, views, users...
Cons
Doesn't do data comparison beyond record count; no facility to align; misses 2005/8 specific attributes in comparison and creation.
Summary
This utility does most of what you need, but it's free. Differences are highlighted in sql, missing objects are scripted. You have to do the hard work to align the schemas, but hey - it's free! Did I mention it's free?

"Wonderful!!!!"
Version: SQL Server Compare 1.0
Summary
I even test this with a huge database, it works fine. But the time factor is the only concern. Other than that, it goes well....

"Good little utility!"
Version: SQL Server Compare 1.0
Summary
This is a very good freeware app. Of course I wish it had more features such as the ability to compare two objects in two different databases without having to search the whole database. I give a lot of credit to the author as he has done me a great favor and given this app a wonderful start! I look forward to version 2.0
