Sync two SQL Server databases So I've got a hosting package from hostgator with an MS SQL database and a local SQL Express 2012 database running. I'm trying to investigate syncing the two together, two-way syncing, and I'm unable to use the SQL replication tools in the SQL management studio, can I use the replication tools? - or do I need to use another tool?

Thanks!

Sorry if this is vague, please let me know and I can clarify.
SQL Server replication, creates jobs which runs through SQL Server Agent, but because SQL Server Agent doesn't run with SQL Server Express Edition, Replication also can not run and the feature is not added in the edition and you can not implement replication. So if you need to sync both databases you need to upgrade your database to standard edition or developer edition, write lengthy query and schedule using PowerShell, or use some third party SW.

Thanks
