ApexSQL Log

ApexSQL Log, SQL Server Transaction Log reader, lets you view transaction log data, audit SQL database changes and undo or redo SQL database changes. ApexSQL Log reads transaction log files from SQL Server 2005 onwards, including all server versions/types. Determine who changed the data and when the change has occurred. Read the transaction log to find out who created, changed or dropped a database object. Reverse inadvertent or malicious database changes that occurred even before the product was installed. Replay all valid SQL transactions on a different database or object. Audit data, schema and permission changes. View transaction log data in human-readable format. Rollback SQL database changes and recover missing or damaged data. Audit without affecting performance.
