Afternoon
I have a question for SQL Geeks
We are looking in to the costs of upgrading from SQL Server 2005 to 2008 and have found that the cost of SQL Server Enterprise is much greater than Standard. Looking online at the differecences between the two editions I have noticed that enterprise includes the following features;
I'm not sure whether these are important and whether Tessitura needs these features. What is everyone going for in their upgrades?
Thanks
Nick

The only problem with these are they are nice to haves rather than essential for performance.
Still haven't found anything that means that we can justify getting Enterprise over standard. Though would love Enterprise!
We're on the Standard Version of 2005 and will probably stay with this unless we hear otherwise.
