A side-by-side look at the MCP Server Sql Analyzer and Mssql MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose MCP Server Sql Analyzer for databases work as a local process; choose Mssql for databases as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
