Simplifies Performance Monitoring with a Few Connectivity Hiccups
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of Redgate Monitor's GUI. I can just go in, click through, and configure notifications and alerts very simply. Everything is nice and clear in the dashboard when we connect to it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we get connectivity issues to database servers when using Windows authentication. It sometimes causes problems, like an invalid connection or connection from an invalid domain showing up in the SQL server error logs. Also, I find that it's a little bit performance hungry sometimes, especially since we are monitoring quite a lot of servers now on a slightly underpowered VM.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Redgate Monitor to track database servers, alert on disk space and performance issues, and delve into identifying real performance problems.

Redgate SQL Monitor
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I like about Redgate Monitor is it's ease of use and the great Technical Support.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the last monitoring software I had, there was a "fix it" button that is not present in Redgate Monitor. I also don't like the update process. I've had to two since I've had the product and not one has gone without problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I haven't had any problems that Redgate Monitor has help me solve.
Useful Monitoring with Some Shortcomings
What do you like best about the product?
I find Redgate Monitor works pretty well in general, and I think the support is reasonable. The real-time alerting feature is the most useful aspect for me, as it promptly lets me know when issues arise or if there's concerning behavior.
What do you dislike about the product?
Portability of custom metrics does not exist. Sometimes there is not enough control over alerts and how they are triggered. The trigger condition/details are not provided in the notification so I have to run additional queries to actually get the desired information. It took several emails with support to get licensing squared. Unfortunately, this is an ongoing issue and every time Redgate makes changes to licenses, how they are reported or handled, our environment has a tendency to break.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Redgate Monitor helps alert me to issues like AG slowdowns, blocking/deadlocking, and failed tasks. The real-time alerting is especially useful for identifying concerning behavior promptly.
Detailed and useful monitoring system
What do you like best about the product?
The breadth of monitoring stats really helps track down issues and backtrack through events.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you can get flooded with notifications, and lose information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Redgate helps us with 2 key business points.
1. detailed and quick monitoring of issues with services including uptime and resource issues.
2. Tracking down issues during RCAs

Effortlessly Monitors SQL, But Needs Better Transaction Tracking
What do you like best about the product?
I like Redgate Monitor because it's simple to use and setup. It's very reactive when there's an issue. The ease of use really stands out, and we also had the support team available for any issues, which made the initial setup even smoother.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe the current transactions running. It's not always easy to see. Sometimes, I find it hard to find the transaction I am looking for or the query text is not found.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Redgate Monitor for monitoring our SQL Server Estate, identifying failing jobs, and instance restarts. It links with ServiceNow to raise incidents automatically. I like it because it's simple to use and setup, and it reacts quickly to issues.
Good for overview, improvable for real-time
What do you like best about the product?
Alert system. You can view historical info easily searching a fault on main page. Alert system is awesome. You can configure a bunch of ways to send alerts.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no interface for mobile view. You can't kill blocked processes from IU. RealTime info is poor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since I have other duties besides being a database administrator, I can easily check disk space, crashes, and other issues, and anticipate a possible crash. The alarm system is very comprehensive. I can do the same work as before in much less time.
Ideal DB Monitoring tool
What do you like best about the product?
The immediate alerting notifications and long running query views.
What do you dislike about the product?
If Dashboard and setting are not so user friendly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The tool alert us on the SQL instances status and that help us to resolve the connectivity related issues. Also to identify resources usage such as high memory and processors by helping us to maintain the DB system resources.
