dbForge Data Pump for SQL Server

dbForge Data Pump for SQL Server is an add-in for Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio that extends its capabilities by providing users with multiple handy features that they can turn to.

This utility's core functionality is to simplify the work of server developers or database administrators by allowing them to populate databases with external data or export server data to various formats. This feature can prove to be a valuable asset, especially if users want to migrate data between different servers and they need a convenient way of doing so.

Developers can choose from a wide spectrum of formats that this tool supports, including HTML, Excel, PDF, TXT, ODBC, DBF, XML or CSV. They are provided with multiple possibilities regarding data exportation or database population.

The add-in also includes several templates that users can assign to each of the supported formats so that they no longer need to worry about re-configuring them every time. Data importation can be achieved by storing the information within newly created tables or ones that are already existing. At the end of the import operation, the application automatically generates a log file, so that users can keep track of their activity in an easy way.

Regarding data exportation, dbForge Data Pump for SQL Server supports a larger number of formats than its import analog. Information can be exported from tables and queries alike, according to the developer's preference. The output text can be formatted so that it better suits the needs of the user. It is possible to customize the page for RTF, Excel or PDF output formats.
