Likelihood to Recommend	Redgate Redgate SQL Monitor is well suited for database administrators or companies who implement software that relies on SQL servers. It will help them test new changes and ensure this will not impact the performance of their software. It is a last resort for MSPs to use to get to the bottom of an ongoing performance issue with their SQL server. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Pros	Redgate It will tell you if your server is under attack. You can quickly see how your server is performing and which queries are taking the longest I gives you the feeling that you are in control of your database, that you know what is going on for when they users ring up and tell you that the server is slow Incentivized Doug Thompson 2016-17 Full Stack Solution Architect Read full review

Alternatives Considered	Redgate Redgate SQL Monitor is a lot cheaper than SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer. I prefer the SolarWinds' design and that it offers integration with other SolarWinds products we already use. SolarWinds supports more than SQL servers (Oracle, MySQL, Maria DB, IBM DB2) and the analysis seems to be much better. The Spiceworks SQL Server monitoring is a free tool and is ideal for monitoring small business SQL instances. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Return on Investment	Redgate The quality of the product and give a negative investment impression, on the plus side when it does work it is a god send. Day to day tasks as made simpler, and a feeling of security of realised. Just don't change anything. Incentivized Doug Thompson 2016-17 Full Stack Solution Architect Read full review
