"Customizable Monitoring with Easy Setup and Excellent Training Materials"
4/5
What do you like best about Redgate Monitor?

I really appreciate the ability to customize monitoring, along with how easy the installation process is. The training materials are excellent, and the help system is clear and genuinely useful when I need support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redgate Monitor?

One issue is that it isn’t easy to automate system updates. Over the last few versions, we’ve also experienced some instability. That said, the current version has been stable so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Centralized Monitoring with Ease and Depth"
4/5
What do you like best about Redgate Monitor?

I probably like the pure performance monitoring the most. It's great to have the ability to drill into long-running queries and the issues you've had. The ability to move back in time and replay what's going on, what was holding up something at any given point, is really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redgate Monitor?

I don't have a lot of complaints, but the packaging of the suite of tools and the licensing models could potentially be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
