Overall Satisfaction with Solarwinds Database Performance Analyzer
SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) is currently being used by one of the business departments to pinpoint and solve issues on certain client SQL instances.
- It quickly finds bottlenecks in queries and helps determine why the bottleneck exist.
- With DPA you can see via graphs the longest queries or the ones taking the most resources.
- DPA also integrates very well with SolarWinds Server and Application Monitor so it's easy to set up simple or advance alerts.
- SolarWinds DPA is truly an advanced tool so perhaps more training videos to match all the great documentation.
- The biggest form of ROI is time, which of course means money. Instead of wasting one or two people every day or two just to find the problem, with DPA that can and is usually found in moments.
Before SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer we used all the free, small or inexpensive tools the team could find and there was no central policy. Now with the integration of DPA into our Orion platform, we are all on the same page.
