“Only main complaint is cost -- we would adopt for other servers if the incremental cost wasn't so high for a few additional instances (we have 3 servers we would like to use DPA with, but can't...”

“It is well worth the cost for that level of troubleshooting.”

“No straight forward method to get plan handle number from plan hash value displayed in DPA.”

“The cost of acquiring this software is bit expensive.”

“It's a reasonably expensive product, but it saves considerable time in managing the database environment, so cost is justified.”

“DPA has helped us to scale and size new environments as we do migrations—CPU usage patterns, memory usage, user activity, etc. In addition to the license costs, the storage cost for the repository... … Our networking team has looked at a few, but settled on tools that were cheaper, free, or did things differently than the Solar Winds portfolio.”

“Pricing: it's reasonable but not cheap.”

“Lowering monitoring cost Making our high cost DBAs more efficient Ability to get a comprehensive feel for our database environment.”

“Already having Orion meant the Database Performance Analyzer was sort of a no-brainer, but the features of DPA have proven that it's worth the money.”

“Much less expensive.”

“Some might have more complex options and longer set up, but that cost is offset by value added over time.”
