You mean the CTRL-L query profiler, the table editor and the server performance monitor that the MSSQLMS had since 2005? Or is there something else?


S/he is probably talking about the large ecosystem of companies that provide SQL Server tooling on top of the basics Microsoft provides. (Disclaimer: I used to work for one of them.)

That being the case then, yes, the tooling is light-years ahead of anything else.

MS have a long history of encouraging third party developers to create tooling around their platforms to help sell those platforms, and keep people using them.
