We were using SQL Server BI Manager to monitor the health and availability of our entire SQL Server BI environment. This includes SSIS, SSRS and SSAS. The business problems that this addresses are all related to ensuring our customers get the best BI solutions available. Currently it is being used by our reporting department, but we assume it might spread shortly.
  • Shows an excellent dashboard
  • Allows easy monitoring of multiple instances
  • Created an environment that can be self healing
  • Drill down can kind of be cumbersome
  • Deep knowledge is needed to understand metrics
  • Some light training is needed to take advantage of all features
SQL Server Business Intelligence Manager is well suited for organizations with large scale BI deployments. When tracking all of your SSIS, SSAS and SSRS processes that are spread out and disjointed, this tool will enable one user to get a holistic view of the whole environment. If you want to be proactive in handling performance issues before they happen, then this tool is good too.
