Redgate Monitor vs. SpeedCurve

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.

• 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

• The interface has some confusing points, for instance aggregation setting (percentiles, median) is misleading, and doesn't do anything in some cases
• Some additional statistical tools would super charge the charts and alerts: moving average, some more useful trend lines
• The performance charts are amazing to compare many values (from different pages, multiple metrics) and find correlations. But the charts are barely usable when many metrics are shown (one cannot tell a line from the other). A simple UI improvement there could supercharge this use case

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.

SpeedCurve actually uses many of those standard tests, and stores the information from test runs indefinitely. This is the game changer.
