Could be great
There is a lot to like about PMM especially the cost. Unfortunately, the query view, example query and explain are limited to 1024 characters. That was a deal-breaker for me as I have many over that. I'm sure not too many companies have such large queries so if your under 1024 I would check out PMM.
