Product Description:

The Actual SQL Server ODBC Driver lets you access your company's Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase databases from within Microsoft Excel and FileMaker Pro. You can connect to any database you are authorized to use, and work with the data just like your Windows-using co-workers.
Our ODBC driver supports both methods of SQL Server authentication - SQL Server accounts and trusted domain accounts. This means that no special configuration of the database is needed in order for you to connect. You just need an account, using whatever authentication method your organization has chosen.
All installation takes place on your Mac - nothing is installed on the server itself.

This ODBC driver provides you with ease of use and performance you've come to expect as a Mac user. The driver includes an installer, connection setup assistant, on-line help, and connection diagnostic tools. With this Mac ODBC solution, you'll be importing data from your SQL Server in no time.

Compatible with MS SQL Server, Sybase ASE and Sybase ASA.

Jonathan, the owner of the company, called me at my office in Switzerland to walk me through some installation problems I was having (no fault of the software). Talk about service.

to spend your DB Connectivity time and dollars, bar none.

Was a long standing OpenLink customer. Had to deal with an issue on their driver. One day decided to try Actual's drivers. Wow. And much less cost. All of a sudden I had fast and reliable data whereas before I had to code a workaround.

From OpenLink I got propaganda sales materials. From Actual I got the most amazing customer care and attention with dedicated and responsive interaction committed to following through on solutions. I also got the a company that genuinely appreciated my purchasing their goods.

Having used multiple products from multiple vendors, I am 100% satisfied with these people and their product. They know their stuff and have solutions for all manner of connectivity issues. You're not going to get better than this.
