    Hi!

    Yes, you can compare between different version of SQL Server. When you deploy, SQL Compare will create a deployment script to work with the version of SQL Server that it is deploying to. One issue you might have is when you have new objects that are incompatible with the older version of SQL Server - in that case, SQL Compare will try and filter them out where possible. Sometimes it can't, for example if the newer-type object is a dependency of another object, and in that case you would need some manual intervention.

    I hope this helps.

    We have SQL Compare 10.7 and we would like to compare a SQL 2008 database to a SQL 2016 database. Should we be able to do that with this version?
