Good product just not a fit for us
We used it to monitor our SSIS and SSRS environments for a few years company wide. We had it to go along with our SQL Diagnostics Manager product so we could have an end to end monitoring solution for our entire environment.
- Types of alerts
- Dashboard view
- Configurable Alerts
- Not the most intuitive product
- The basic features are easy to use, the more advanced features are more difficult to use than they should be
- Drill Down is clunky

My experience with BIDS
We used BI Manager to develop and maintain all of our ETL packages.
- Easy to use GUI
- Integrates nicely with SQL Server
- Simple single server deployment
- Lacks versioning control.
- Lacks support/native driver for alternative database.
- Only plays well with other Microsoft products.

Great monitoring and alerting for MS SSAS, SSRS and SSIS
We're using SQL Server Business Intelligence Manager to monitor our SQL Server BI platforms (analysis services, reporting services, and integration services). It's great at collecting metrics and KPIs regarding query execution and performance for SSAS in both standard and cube models, and also provides great insights for packages executed by SSIS.
- Great monitoring capabilities for SSAS, SSRS, and SSIS.
- Tuning features for SSAS cubes.
- Configurable alerts.
- Some advanced features are hard to get without proper training.
- Usability has room for improvement.

The new way to monitor BI - SQL Server Business Intelligence Manager
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
