Excellent Query Analysis Tool

I'm always looking for new tools for SQL. 

Here is one that truly sets the standard for Query Execution Plan Analysis:

SQL SENTRY PLAN EXPLORER

The feature I like about it this best is that you can navigate your sql code and the analysis plan window stays in sync with where you are in the code.  Conversely, the code window is sync'd to the analysis plan. 

On top of this, the tool also provides tabular performance metrics of the various operations instead of the user having to hunt through the diagrams to find the problems. 

Best of all, there is a free version you can check out and decide if you want to get the reasonably priced pro-version.

There is too much in this tool for me to list all the great points about it.  I realize this sounds like a sales pitch, but after you check it out you will be impressed too.
