SSMS has a unique feature where if you run multiple queries, it will show the output of all those queries below at the same time, you cannot do that with Datagrip.

SSMS also has a number of excellent integrations with SQL Server itself. Overall, DataGrip is my tool of choice, but I occasionally boot up Windows in Parallels when I need some of the SSMS-specific tools.

SSMS has unique feature of starting away too long even on my dev laptop.

Visual Studio starts faster not much more though noticeable but these two have same base.

So just wonder why is that or it is just my imagination.

To be fair, when I was working on Windows, SSMS was one of the first programs I opened, and (almost) never closed it. I was using it frequently enough this worked well for me.

Man I wish DataGrip would improve their Oracle database capability. I really just hate toad so much.

Unless you admin more than 3-4 databases, and then it's a nightmare unless you never close it.
