I have been able to identify problems before helpdesk notified us. The Top SQL allows me to quickly identify which query/application is having a problem. The event chain, while rudimentary, still makes maintenance easier. Overall, this is the best monitoring tool I have seen for a DBMS. > > **Cons**: The advisory conditions are difficult to manage. There is a steep learning curve in how to set them up and manage them. The event chains need some enhancements. > > Whenever we have had any performance problems, SQLSentry has allowed me to get ahead of the problem and assisted in solving it quickly. ----- ### "Great tool, limited active funtionality" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *5 March 2019* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It helps find issues on your databases (across all databases you are licenced for). It can be helpful with new code to see how it will impact the database performance. > > **Cons**: There are errors or warnings that are posted that are transient. The overall score can be impacted negatively by transient states.... not that I know how to get arround that. There are errors reported and when you try to get more information the details are a little cryptic. In some cases the issue being reported is inconsequential. There are some errors that are reported, but the source of the error is not easily found... it requires additional queries in SSMS to find the underlying issue. In some cases, it would be helpfull to have a drop down menu or a debug box to look into some of the more common issues. > > I do like the product and have used it to find issues on many occasions. Originally it was my go-to to find all the issues. Now I tend to query the DB directly and turn to SS when I am not finding what I am looking for.... In some cases where I have an idea what the issue is I will confirm first with SS. I do wish it had more "active" functionality. Active doesnt have to run anything, but providing a script to run to dig deeper would be more helpful. ----- ### "SQL sentry for Database Server Management and Database Management" — 3.0/5 > **Ranula** | *14 March 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a PHP Laravel developer I am using SQL server management tools daily, fortunately I found this interesting software tool SQL sentry. As a tool this provide details of queries and also it would make easy to join tables and other db operations with increasing efficiency. When it comes to querying I highly recommend this tool to software developers, It would helpful for junior developers and also for seniors. For Server management this will provide a feature to monitor the performances with graphs. > > **Cons**: This tool will spend a much CPU memory, Most of the personal laptops will getting slow when using, some times that may cause to decrease productivity. > > I can recommend this tool as a productive tool and also as a effective investment for a company for server management and database management ----- ### "What a change" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 November 2018* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The customization and ease of mining the data. The senteyone team is willing to share all that they can to make this product your own. The ability to add custom alerts removed the need for my team to start rolling their own solutions for data gathering. I also,like the way that I can give access to my development teams to see history of jobs and queries allowing my team to focus on other pressing matters. > > **Cons**: The software could seam daunting to get started. The fact that it is so customizable could give some user trepidation in using the software. Maybe different editions of the software could ease smaller shops into using the product. > > 3 years aliens involved in an evaluation of SQL Sentry. We found the product to be quite lacking. Fast forward to 12 months ago, I decided to give Sentryone another chance. I was SUPER pleased with the turnaround. Along with the performance of the product, SenteyOne customer service moved us to purchase this product\! ----- ### "Rest API alone was worth it" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 November 2018* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We decided to go with SentryOne mainly for the RestSource API connector. This allowed us to automate pulling down Google Adwords and Transaction data across our clients for Analytics purposes. In the past we would have a bunch of reports emailed to us where we would need to drop them manually to a folder and then run a package to import and create our final tables. > > **Cons**: This con is not really about the software itself but more of the documentation on how best to use all of the components. It's hard to find good documentation so that you can go forward and ,work on all the components on your own. > > Overall it has been good working with them. CSR at the company is hands down a great resource and extremely helpful when I had an issue or just needed help getting something to work ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/86868/sql-sentry?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/86868/sql-sentry) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | ja | | ----- ## Structured Data
