Overall Satisfaction with Navisite Managed Infrastructure Services (NaviCloud)
Navisite manages 24/7 monitoring of our production SQL Servers. This helps because we do not have a dedicated DBA on staff.
- 24/7 monitoring
- Immediate notification in the event of failures
- Dedicated Senior DBA
- Dedicate Account rep
- Not very pro-active outside of monitoring
- Previous account rep was not customer focused
- The ticketing system they use, Proximity can be flaky. Sometimes, do not receive ticket updates
- 24/7 monitoring
- Cost saving from not having a full-time DBA on staff
- Access to dedicated DBA in the event of a critical situation
- Cost savings by not having a full-time DBA on staff - saving of at least 50K a year
- Data team not on call 24/7
- Navisite team will try to fix issue if possible - e.g. shrink log files that have grown
Navisite's rates were better and they seemed to have more SQL Server expertise. This was about 5 years ago and it may not be the case anymore
