Devart ODBC Driver for SQL Server is a high-performance data connector with enterprise-level features for accessing SQL Server databases from ODBC-compliant reporting, analytics, BI, and ETL tools on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, macOS, and Linux. Our driver fully supports standard ODBC API functions and data types and enables easy and secure access to live SQL Server data from anywhere.
Our connectivity solution enables various ODBC-aware applications to establish a direct connection to SQL Server via TCP/IP to eliminate the need for SQL Server Сlient. Direct connection increases the speed of data transmission between an external application and SQL Server for real-time analytics. It also streamlines the deployment process, since there is no need to distribute any additional client software with the driver.
The driver is compatible with third-party tools for data analysis, such as Microsoft Excel, and integrates with various IDEs and systems like Visual Studio, DBeaver, etc.
For the complete list of compatible tools and environments visit the Compatibility page.
ODBC Driver for SQL Server can be used with 32-bit and 64-bit applications on both x32 and x64 platforms, so there is no need to additionally configure the driver, applications or environment.
With our fully Unicode-compliant driver, you can properly retrieve and modify any data in multilingual SQL Server databases, regardless of their character set: Latin, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Chinese, etc., and in any language environment.
Our ODBC driver is a standalone installation file that doesn't require the user to deploy and configure any additional software such as a database client or a vendor library. Deployment costs are reduced drastically, especially when using the silent install method with an OEM license in large organizations that have hundreds of machines.
Work with SQL Server securely using SSL connection options provided in our driver along with the support for SSL protocol. You can also connect to SQL Server securely via SSH tunnel. SSH protocol is one of the most reliable protocols for data encryption.
We have implemented advanced Data Conversion mechanisms that provide bi-directional mapping between any SQL Server and ODBC data types.
The driver provides full support for the ODBC interface, its functions, and data types. It offers advanced connection string parameters and allows any ODBC compliant desktop or web application to connect to SQL Server from various environments and platforms.
Moreover, with our driver you can perform bulk updates to SQL Server database by combining SQL statements into batches, thus simplifying and speeding up large data modification to SQL Server.
Our driver is compatible with major and the latest SQL Server versions.
Every operation with SQL Server becomes significantly faster using such capabilities of our driver as local data caching, connection pooling, and much more.

Devart ODBC drivers are verified to be compatible with leading analytics and reporting tools, various IDEs and programming languages. Get fast and secure access to your data in any application using our ODBC Drivers!
The ODBC Driver for SQL Server is a tool that serves as an interface between an external program or a programming language and an ODBC data source. The driver uses the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) application programming interface to access data in SQL and NoSQL database management systems using SQL as the query language. The ODBC driver processes ODBC function calls, sends SQL statements to the data source, and returns results to the application.
It's recommended to first delete an older version of the driver if you have one installed. To install the ODBC Driver for SQL Server on Windows 10:
Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is an industry-standard application programming interface for database access. The ODBC Driver for SQL Server uses the ODBC interface to access data in database management systems. It allows an ODBC-compliant application to gain access to one or more data sources. ODBC drivers work under the control of an ODBC driver manager, which is a library that manages communication between the ODBC-aware application and ODBC drivers.
