SQL Server ODBC drivers for Linux and UNIX

Easysoft provide two SQL Server ODBC drivers for UNIX and Linux platforms: the Easysoft SQL Server ODBC driver and the Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge.

Product When to use
Easysoft SQL Server ODBC driver
  • You want a SQL Server ODBC driver for Linux and UNIX platforms.
  • You don't need ODBC access to other databases from a single product.
Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge
  • You want a single product that provides ODBC access to SQL Server and other ODBC databases.

    The Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge is a client/server product that connects applications to any database for which an ODBC driver is available by using the database's ODBC driver. For SQL Server, the Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge server component uses the Microsoft SQL Server ODBC driver to connect to the database and is installed on any machine where the ODBC driver is installed.

  • You want to access SQL Server from multiple client machines, in which case the Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge is a more cost effective solution.
  • You need ODBC access to SQL Server from platforms on which the Easysoft SQL Server ODBC driver is not currently available.
