1) Assessment report pre upsizing
2) Custom data type mapping per table
3) Handling out of range date values during data migration
4) Scripting ability of the converted schema
5) Converting multiple Access MDB files in one shoot
6) Faster data migration (SSMA use bulk copy operation for moving data)
7) Network scan + the ability exporting many Access .MDB schemas into one
SQL Server database for pre upsizing analysis
8) Saving/resuming the migration project
9) Fixing existing bugs currently unfixed in the upsizing wizard
This is from technical point of view. Other important consideration is that
SSMA Access ships every 3 month and respond quickly to customers
feedback\needs.
Upsizing wizard, on the other hand, ships with Office releases.
I recommend using the upsizing wizard in converting to ADP projects. SSMA
does not support it.
