LINQ to SQL Compatible!
LinqConnect was developed closely to LINQ to SQL and retains full compatibility with it. Interface of the LinqConnect classes is compatible with LINQ to SQL ones. If you are a LINQ to SQL developer, you don't need to learn much and can start developing with LinqConnect immediately.

Unlike LINQ to SQL, LinqConnect is an actively developed and supported product, and it offers a number of benefits over LINQ to SQL. It supports more database servers, more development platforms, more LINQ features, more mapping kinds, provides better performance, etc.

Code-First, Database-First, Model-First - All Are Supported!
LinqConnect supports all the development approaches - Code-First, Database-First, Model-First, or mixing Database-First and Model-First. Its visual model designer Entity Developer allows you to quickly design your model and offers easy-to-use wizards for creating model from a database, database from a model, or synchronizing existing model and database in any direction. Entity Developer provides powerful and highly customizable template-based code generation, allowing you to configure code output redirection, generate partial classes, use custom attributes for your classes and members, etc.

.NET, Silverlight, Metro, Mono, Windows Phone - Share Code!
Share the same code for working with data on different platforms! LinqConnect is a database connectivity solution that works great on different .NET-based frameworks, including Full .NET Framework, .NET Core, Silverlight, Mono, etc. In addition to LINQ data access, it offers you ADO.NET interfaces for Silverlight, Metro, and Windows Phone, that was not available for these platforms before!

LINQ Support
While most ORMs use their own query language and LINQ support is just an additional feature, LinqConnect was designed as the LINQ provider, it has no extra layers between LINQ and SQL. Because of this LinqConnect has higher performance and better LINQ support.

Mapping Support
LinqConnect supports all the widely used mapping cases: complex types, many-to-many associations, TPT and TPH inheritances, mapping stored procedures returning cursors to methods, etc. And it's not bloated with support for exotic and needless mapping cases - it remains fast, simple, and easy-to-understand.
