Very useful Database performance Monitoring Tool

This is a very powerful tool for monitoring your databases. You can see all the metrics and do all the graphs you need. It is easy to use and the support is great. The only thing that I dislike is the need for a licence to use the tool. I also dislike how the tool tries to be all things for all people. Don't get me wrong, it's a great tool, but it can get a bit overwhelming for people who like to do things manually. I use this tool to monitor our database servers and to generate the graphs to…

Pros
  • Very user friendly
  • Easy way make custom dashboards using different tools available in pgdashing.
  • Many plugins are released every month so there will always something new coming out!
  • Can handle huge amount data easily with no problems at any time when used correctly :)
Cons
  • No free version or trial license
  • Some features require additional licensing (like email alerts

Great alternative to working solely within Microsoft Management Studio

I like that it can be used from any computer, not just one with SQL Server installed or running in VirtualBox (as we have). It's really easy for new users who don't know how databases work yet! There are some things about this tool which could use improvement but overall very helpful as an all-inclusive database management program/toolset. We've been able solve many issues without having access directly into our server through SSH commands - great benefit when dealing remotely over VPN…

Pros
  • The ability to run queries directly from the web interface and have it return results easy to use and very intuitive interface
Cons
  • Not a fan of the "queries" that are required to make things happen, sometimes takes forever and requires re running to try it again to get it to do what you want it to do

Best performing MySQL monitoring application

I like that it looks at different areas such as SQL statements, slow queries etc.. It's very user friendly with easy navigation around each area which makes troubleshooting much easier than in other tools where there are more steps between getting an error report or seeing what query takes most time for example! There could be some improvements but overall this tool does exactly we need - fast reporting about our database status so far every day without any problems (SQL-side). We needed…

Pros
  • Very nice GUI
  • Easy usage interface;
  • Can't have too many databases connected simultaneously due their limitation.
  • Great support team who help you right away via email :)
Cons
  • Not having ability add own custom data fields into reports.
  • Sometimes not able run long complex scripts properly
