BizTalk360 vs. IDERA SQL Diagnostic Manager for SQL Server

Rather than having just one aspect that I appreciate the most, I've found that there are several that I enjoy the most. Customized overviews of your environment and precise breakdowns of key regions have proven highly useful. That way, I can free up some of my time to work on other things that benefit the company by handing off monitoring responsibilities to the business or other teams having a stake in these areas.

If you have several SQL servers and don't have a lot of time or resources to constantly monitor them, SQLdm will be very helpful. For one or two servers, it might be overkill. All of our servers are virtual, so having a tool that can monitor host metrics as well as guest metrics is a plus as well.

• It can take some time to figure out the best way to set up notifications.
• At times, it may seem like the dashboard is running slowly, however, this is largely down to the browser being used.
• Because the BizTalk360 interface doesn't appear to be responsive to mobile devices, viewing it has been difficult.

• Windows client has some issues. When you have small time intervals for your data collection, it can cause the client to become unresponsive and require you to restart it.
• It takes more time to get the web client running than it does to get the windows client running.
• The visualizations have been the same for the last eight years--could use a little bit of a refresh.

JBoss is well suited and supports for Open Source Applications where I used to work with BizTalk360 mainly with Windows Servers. BizTalk360 performs pretty much well with Windows. BizTalk360 really performs well with middleware.

IDERA SQL Diagnostic Manager for SQL Server is an excellent tool, however I think Solarwinds Database Perfromance Analyzer is a slightly stronger more well rounded product

• It saves me a significant amount of time each week, freeing me up for other important tasks. I couldn't possibly monitor each server individually to the extent that SQLdm does.
• With the wealth of information I can get to easily, I can be more proactive in taking care of my environments rather than reactive. The times when other people notice something happening before I do are few and far between.
