Component Comparer

This XrmToolBox tool allows you to compare the version of the plug-ins/custom workflow activity assembly and the size of the web resources between the two Microsoft Dataverse environments (developed by Roman Kopaev).

When there is no proper deployment process or any change is made directly in one of the environments, the components are out of sync between multiple environments.

To identify the components which are different due to deployment issue or to find out the items which are yet to be deployed to the next environment, you can use this tool to compare the list and version/size of assemblies and web resources between two environments.
