SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 19.2, recently released by Microsoft, was unveiled on November 13, 2023. If you want to know all about the new features and improvements, you can read the release notes and download it from this page. If you are working with the latest versions of SQL Server, Azure SQL Managed Instance, or, example, Azure SQL Database, you will undoubtedly want to transition to this version. However, we understand that you have not yet made the transfer.
Prior versions of SSMS (e.g., SSMS 18.x, SSMS 17.x, and SSMS 16.x) can be installed and used in conjunction with SSMS 19.2 if your SQL Server version is older than 2014. Also, the installer doesn't ask if you require Azure Data Studio 1.47.0 when installing SSMS 19.2, since it's already installed by default.
Despite its speed and quality, SSMS 19.2 might not be enough for SQL Server heavy users. But there's always room for improvement; dbForge SQL Tools is an assortment of add-ins and independent apps that can level up SSMS's strengths and cover almost any gap you can imagine.
