Great SQL Monitoring platform
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Redgate SQL Monitor for around 13 years. I did a lot of research when picking it as it is a large investment and the fact I am still using it and justifying it every year shows its quality. It is constantly updated with actually useful features, web based so no agents on production systems and genuinely useful dashboards and metrics. Really helps me and the team in our day to day.
What do you dislike about the product?
The recent adddition of the Enterprise version is concerning that we will lose features or capability. We need to justify this expense to our management every year when global platforms are in use by other teams. If the cost creeps up too much it will be too hard to justify so hopefully they can manage this without losing us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting insight into our production database systems, spotting trends and potential issues.
Our journey with Redgate SQL monitor
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of deployment and the friendly GUI interface distinguishes it from the other products.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its certainly heavy but you can come around this with adequate resourcing on how it is setup. But its not an overhead as it provides a lot of detailing and it is a must have features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Performance issues can arise any day due to unseen circumstances. Redgate allows us to pin point the pain areas and provides recommendations to overcome those issues.
Reliable SQL Server Performance Insights
What do you like best about the product?
Provides insightful reports and timely alerts, making it excellent for tracking resource utilization across different time periods.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost can be high for smaller environments, a per server pricing model would make it more accessible and scalable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Redgate Monitor helps us stay on top of critical issues like backup failures, deadlocks, long-running queries, and high CPU/RAM utilization. It enables us to respond quickly to failed backups with detailed diagnostics, reducing resolution time. Deadlock and long-running query alerts guide improvements in application query design, while resource utilization metrics help us make informed decisions about hardware upgrades or VM scaling.

it is very detailed and makes troubleshooting databases easier for dbas
