    Proactive monitoring has improved daily database performance and alerts support rapid issue resolution

    Reviewed on Sep 03, 2026
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    I mainly use Redgate Monitor for day-to-day activity, including tasks like backup, performance tuning, and slow-running queries, and it has been very helpful for me for various purposes such as alerts and monitoring CPU usage, memory, and disk latency.

    Regarding my main use case for Redgate Monitor day-to-day, alerting is crucial for me since it gives me deep query-level visibility, and I appreciate the multi-platform monitoring capabilities for SQL, Oracle, and MySQL, along with the clean documentation and easy installation process.

    What is most valuable?

    The best features Redgate Monitor offers, in my opinion, include the agents and the alerting capabilities, which provide me confidence as a proactive DBA, helping me quickly identify and fix issues such as blocking chains and long-running queries.

    The alerting features particularly stand out as they notify me about long-running queries in our environment, allowing me to diagnose issues promptly, and while we use native tools, Redgate Monitor's alerting system saves us time on various projects.

    I believe Redgate Monitor has positively impacted my organization, and I would rate its effectiveness as an 8 regarding specific outcomes.

    What needs improvement?

    For improvement, I think Redgate Monitor's alert customization depth could be enhanced; I would appreciate more granular control over notification rules such as user permissions and alert grouping, as well as attention towards resource usage since Redgate Monitor can be resource-intensive.

    Addressing needed improvements, I believe a better learning curve for new users who might find features complicated could be beneficial; more simplified metrics dashboards would aid not just new users but anyone in navigating the tool more effectively.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been working in my current field for almost eight-plus years, specifically since 2017.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I believe Redgate Monitor is stable; although dealing with databases requires caution, I have not encountered any negative experiences regarding its safety.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Redgate Monitor's scalability is indeed valid; while I find it scalable, I recognize that a careful approach is necessary, especially with current safety issues.

    How are customer service and support?

    I think the customer support is good, as they respond well to requests or issues raised, and I have not encountered anything negative in my interactions with them.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I have not previously used a different solution; Redgate Monitor is my first third-party tool after using a native tool.

    What was our ROI?

    While the management team would have insights on return on investment, I believe the use and helpfulness of Redgate Monitor warrant valid investment for any company seeking to maximize efficiency.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Regarding my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing, I consider it a fair amount; my peers also feel that it falls within a comfortable range.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    We chose Redgate Monitor as our first option without evaluating others.

    What other advice do I have?

    My advice for anyone considering using Redgate Monitor is to take the time to learn about its features before diving in, as jumping in without understanding the metrics can lead to confusion.

    Overall, I truly love Redgate Monitor and would recommend it to anyone in database administration, but I also recognize that improvements and upgrades, especially concerning its AI features, are essential for ongoing development. I have given this review an overall rating of 8.5.
