AimBetter Pros and Cons

My team choosed this tool to monitor a complex environment made of more than one hundred of databases allocated on

a few SQL Server clustered istances that suffered many problems at the beginning. This tool is based on a SaaS solution in Cloud,

so one single Aimbetter agent was installed on a third machine to monitor all these instances. Just after a couple of

days of Aimbetter monitoring we were in condition to identify and classify hundreds of problems into our databases:

syntax errors, security issues, bottlenecks, tempdb overload, deadlocks, etc.; we divided them in groups and forwaded

one part to developers, the other to Database Administrators. Solved inital problems, now we are able to monitor in real

time our instances and to analyze, troubleshoot and solve emerging problems a few time after an alarm reported by this tool.

Aimbetter console can be customized in alarm thresholds by You or Support Team to satisfy specific customer needs;

this monitoring tool is quite complex and needs some time to clearly understand all metrics, but after a few hours of

console utilization You have a complete and clear comprehension of what happens into Your databases: user activities,

slow queries, deadlocks, blocking queries, bottlenecks, tempdb utilization, resource utilization, etc.

Agent sends all the metrics captured to a remote server in cloud that preserve them for a long time; this permits to

monitor from console real time events or historical events, for example during night or weekend, batch or maintenance

activity, and to compare the same metric between two different time sample to understand its time trend evolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Into the console You will find two main sections: one is a dashboard useful for monitoring health status with alert and alarms,

the other goes deeply into many specific areas of investigation, collecting a lot of parameters and their evolution; a little more

attention to a cross drill down between alarms and metrics analysis could help to investigate faster and more clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
