Redgate SQL Monitor Review
We are using Redgate SQL Monitor to raise performance issues of stored procedures and resource pressures. It identifies the under-performing stored procedures and from that we can leverage any missing index or SQL performance information caught by SQL server.
- Missing index
- RAM usage
- CPU usage
- Provide a dedicated section of code for missing index
- Automation layer

- Licensing cost is per license...

SQL Monitor - Automating your morning checks
We use Redgate SQL Monitor as our primary SQL Server monitoring application. It's main tasks are to alert the DBAs of any problems with SQL server, such as failed jobs, long running queries, SQL errors, or host-level issues like high CPU or filled disks. We also use it for aggregating performance metrics and troubleshooting performance issues using wait statistics
- Provides a quick dashboard to identify what servers have issues, and the priority of them
- Allows for granular control over thresholds and alerting which can be set at multiple levels
- Let you easily go back in time to see what was going on in the past
- Incremental releases can be buggy
- Isn't the best for pinpointing performance issues
- Web interface can be sluggish

- Allows us to proactively fix issues before they happen
- Allows us to quickly react to issues without having to wait for someone else to notice
- Cuts down on the amount of time spent doing daily checks

It is used in a client site to monitor their SQL estate.
- Global Dashboard gives a great overview
- Ability to rename/alias a server
- Easy to navigate
- I don't think the custom metrics/alerting is as flexible as say SQLSentry

- Clients can review all their estate in one place, far easier and better than what SCOM was providing them with
I personally prefer SQL Sentry due to the flexibility in the custom metrics/monitoring but this is still a great product!!
- Dashboard
- Popups when hovering a mouse over a server on the dashboard is a nice touch
- I wish it had the highlight a time period and right click for top SQL feature which you get in SQL Sentry
