Excellent product to give you real information about your database
What do you like best about the product?
The level of granularity that can be reached with the information captured by this tool. I'm also a huge fan of the explanations that are given with each of the individual items that are displayed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can feel clunky in the relation that the node has to the database. I feel like looking at the node should flow more easily into DPA as opposed to being so separated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a none DBA, I have been empowered to research and determine issues or recommendations to make to our database admins that carry significant weight and understanding of the tool and how it informs us of the database.
Looks good, but has a side effect?
What do you like best about the product?
Installation and configuration was fast and simple, no problems on that stage
Adding SQL instances was fast and simple.
The dashboard is informative and well-designed.

What do you dislike about the product?
After I added an instance that was part of SQL Server Always-On cluster, somesing happened to the Listener, and I lost connection to all DBs in the AAG. Can it be a coincidence, maybe the cluster was already
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps finding bottlenecks in SQL performance and fix them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good and helpful product, but.... be careful with using it with SQL Server Always-on cluster
One of the best performance analyzers on the market
What do you like best about the product?
The stunningly easy way to see a visual with the expensive queries bringing down system's performance. Works really well with both Oracle and SQLServer. DBAs life has become so easy due to this software
What do you dislike about the product?
Price is on the higher end, but definitely realizes the ROI in the mid-long term. This software becomes a little redundant once everyone moves to a c full cloud storage solution. Trial period for 14 days was too little to evaluate but was able to extend thru the account manager
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Definitely shorter turn around time to resolve issues as this software pin points the bottle necks right away.
There's an alerting mechanism that sets our DBA team to be more proactive

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Evaluate your long term ROI versus short term since you may not get full ROI within 1-2 years. You will however see the results immediately
DPA for non-DBAs
What do you like best about the product?
Integrates well for a robust application monitoring and troubleshooting experience. When using APM and node groups we are able to utilize AppStack views, reports, and dashboards to provide end-users, admins, and execs the right view and information levels.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is not as good as other Solarwinds modules. There is a learning curve even for regular Solarwinds users. The cost and licensing can become a concern.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Critical application monitoring and database connection statistics for real time alerting and troubleshooting.
Reporting for historical root cause analysis

Recommendations to others considering the product:
The power of this product is in its ability to scale and implement with other Solarwinds products. I highly recommend having all of your infrastructure be involved in the planning and implementation phases to get the most out of this product.
Casual SQL user
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can very easy to identify performance issues and find the most of the time find the root cause in a single pane of glass. This is really helpful for example when users are complaining of slowness issues on a business critical application and this tool can potentially provide the answer in a short of amount of time if the issue lies on at the database level. There are many positives to the product, but being able to pinpoint an issue is huge.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to be able to create traces on the fly based on findings from DPA. It would also help be nice if the product were more customizable. More intuitive reporting would be nice, but I've found that Solarwinds reporting in general is sort of difficult and is not limited to just the Database Performance Analyzer module.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to find root cause for critical application issues and to keep an eye on performance to proactively attack and/or prevent potential issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think this is a great tool to monitor databases and to identify issues that could potentially affect critical business applications. Anyone who is looking for a product that provides a high level of functionality in a single pane of glass would definitely benefit from Solarwinds Database Performance Analyzer. I am sysadmin and a very casual SQL user and this product is very easy to follow and understand even though I am not proficient in database administration.
This is going to completely change the way my developers attack problem code.
What do you like best about the product?
I love that you get detail on specific queries. I can now have my developers focus on very detailed issues, and can pinpoint where issues are occurring.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing that I dislike so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're going to start attacking poorly performing queries. This tool has shown us incredible amounts of data that we didn't have the bandwidth to dig for in the past. My team can focus on a few things and start knocking additional things off the list as we fix them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is especially helpful for small teams. I have one DBA and 5 developers supporting 15k employees, so finding the time to do DB work is never easy. This narrows down the scope of finding problems tremendously.
I have worked with DBA and they love the DPA
What do you like best about the product?
Showing the colorful graph and root caus
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't work with it but the DBA did not complain but liking it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Normally, they blame everything on DB and by using DPA, will find the rood cause
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I tried recommending it but the DBA already was using it in smaller lincences
Very useful utility
What do you like best about the product?
The integration with the Orion platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that is would also work with Microsoft Exchange.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly performance related issues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure this is the product you want.

Identify database problems in real-time
Integration with the Orion Platform
Easy to install

Easy to install
What do you dislike about the product?
Did not provide exact procedures or suggestions on how to improve on database performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solarwinds Orion platform has been running slow and does not provide real-time information sometimes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's ability to integrate with the Orion Platform is its selling point.
