Best free tool to debug SQL statements and views

The best thing about dbMarline is that it shows real time data with all metrics, which are very helpful for debugging issues in production environments or even development when dealing w/stored procedures etc., I also like how easy its setup as well since we have only one user (you). There's not much dislikes at this point but the price might be something people would dislike because there could possibly b more features included instead maybe? Also some minor UI improvements should help…

Pros
  • I like the user's UI and the data it shows is very helpful for debugging issues
Cons
  • Also the UI could be a minor thing that could be done for a more user friendly UI

Good Visualization Tool to Analyze SQL Server Performance

The visualizations are very helpful for analyzing issues with my sql server instance, however I dislike that it's not an open source product nor free tool like some other tools in this category (if there is one!). It would be great if dbMarline was more customizable as most users want something customized per their business needs vs off-the shelf options only available within its enterprise version which comes at quite high cost ($500+). For our purposes we needed help identifying slow queries

Pros
  • Good visualization capabilities to easily identify top performance concerns regarding specific SQL Server instances no code required just good old fashioned log file analysis :) Not too much bells n whistles here..just straight forward functionality focused around helping troubleshoot poor performing database servers quickly without having them crash due to memory pressure before you can get anything useful out of your current set up so far..also helps find potential bottlenecks early enough
Cons
  • Some little things

Great tool for improving performance and troubleshooting database issues

I like that it allows me access from anywhere, even if my computer is not connected directly with our network or server! It also lets us track things in real time which helps find issues quicker than without this tool installed (especially when working remotely). The fact we don't have an option for remote desktop control means sometimes there are times where its hard/impossible ot see what's going wrong right away at certain points during troubleshooting sessions - but thats pretty minor as…

Pros
  • Abilityto run scripts easily.
Cons
  • So-so
