The webpage for dbForge Data Studio states: (The data comparison functionality provided by dbForge Data Studio for SQL Server is similar to that provided by dbForge Data Compare for SQL Server Standard Edition.).

How similar is similar? I downloaded the Data Compare program and really like what it does. Does the Data Studio have the same capabilities or has it been 'dumbed' down to be in the studio. I like the Studio as I get a few more tools to use for a bit more money.

Thank you.
