Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer

DPA is being used by the IT and CIM Developers team to monitor our production databases. IT will check the system daily for any signs of issues. Both teams will check when testing or rolling out new systems to ensure the Software is operating as intended. These testing checks are done at least once a week by either department.
  • Quickly identifies slow running queries.
  • Identifies which database is causing issues on a server.
  • Provides an easy to read way of seeing stats on all servers quickly.
  • No way to mark a query activity as normal, for example a slow running SPROC that has to be that way.
  • Not many options to restrict access.
  • Less time completing database management.
  • Alerts to issues before production notice them.
DPA is very useful for finding blockers or slow running queries and provided evidence of improvement after an issue with a new system, the graphs and ease of use meant that we where quickly able to resolve the issue and provide comprehensive updates to a customer who was concerned around the software's performance
