Lately I've needed to compare the schemas of two or more databases and highlight the differences. Based on internet research, I settled on two contenders: AdeptSQL Diff and Red Gate SQL Compare. Both are reasonably fast. AdeptSQL's UI looks very 16-bit and has limited reporting options. Red Gate's UI is very attractive and offers more reporting options. However, Red Gate's product currently has a bug that considers quoted and unquoted trigger identifiers to be different, even if the identifier itself is the same. This resulted in a large number of false differences, forcing me to go with AdeptSQL for now. If Red Gate can fix this problem, I would be inclined to switch to their product in the future.
