DbForge Search for SQL Server
Price: $
DbForge Search for SQL Server is an SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) add-in that offers SQL Server database search capabilities. It allows you to search for different objects and also data stored in databases.
You can use it to find stored routines, or to find specific parts of SQL code stored in different tables, views, triggers and other database objects. In addition it also allows you to search for data stored in tables, which also displays the table containing searched data.
It offers the ability to customize your search, by selecting object types you want to search and also select in which database you want the search to be performed. By selecting multiple databases, search will be simultaneously performed across all the selected databases. You will be also able to use wildcards in your search queries, by substituting any character and any number of characters in the string.
All in all, DbForge Search for SQL Server can significantly reduce the time you need to find different objects and data in SQL Server databases, especially large databases with lots of objects. It can be integrated in 2012, 2014 and 2016 versions of SSMS, and it also supports all the latest versions of SQL Server.
