SQL Sentry, a tool that makes the DBA life easy | TrustRadius

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using SQL Sentry to monitor all of our Production database instances.

Pros and Cons

Wait Stats collection and maintenance
Built in Plan explorer
Keylookups and Forwarded Records monitor

I personally think that we should have a flexibility to add any additional monitoring as a custom monitoring for the entities that are not available.
I would like to see an option to monitor the SQL Waits for a particular period on a given instance

Alternatives Considered

I've not considered any other monitoring solutions for SQL Server since I feel SQL Sentry has been most useful when compared to Foglight.

Likelihood to Recommend

SQL Sentry has been extremely helpful in understanding and fixing the production challenges. Making the DBA job easy
