Suggestions
Welcome to the Redgate Monitor feature suggestions list. Tell us how we can improve Redgate Monitor by voting on these suggestions or by submitting your own ideas.
This is the easiest way to make an impact on Redgate Monitor’s roadmap. Check out the completed suggestions to see how your ideas have influenced us in the past. Please note that this list is one of multiple sources that drive our development, meaning that we will not always implement the highest-ranking suggestions.
To give your idea the greatest possible impact, please follow these guidelines:
- Describe the goal you’re trying to accomplish, rather than a specific solution to get there
- If you have a favoured solution, add it as a comment to your suggestion
- Give us as much context as possible
- Only make one suggestion per post. If you have multiple ideas, submit them in separate posts
- Comment and vote on existing posts to develop the ideas — the Redgate Monitor team will often stay quiet initially about new suggestions to see what you have to say!
If you have any questions visit the Redgate Monitor forum.

So if cluster has 3 nodes, you should one line for each

Be able to give users different access to different groups
I would like to be able to give some developers Read-only access level to some servers (or server group). For example Production servers.
But give them Standard access level to other servers (or server group) so they can clear alerts for example and configure their own alerts.

It would be a great feature to have SQL Monitor suggest efficiency recommendations the way that vRealize Ops Manager does, which is basically a tool you point at the environment and it shows you efficiency recommendations. Rather than having to perform time consuming manual analysis.

Export a Databases report to Excel including Name, Availability, Transactions/sec and Database size for any time period
In SQL Monitor I want to export a Databases report to Excel including Name, Availability, Transactions/sec and Database size for any time period. You can see this data and screenshot it, but it would be much more professional, useable and positive for management if I could deliver it in Excel instead of combining screenshots.

Add a description for users in the manage users for active directory
In some environments, the user login doesn't necessarily match the true user's name. This would help navigate what the user is assigned to that specific account.

Get notification for when a SQL Agent job is in a retry state
Hi, it would be really useful if SQL Monitor could identify when any currently executing job steps are in a retry state. We have many such jobs and the time lost whilst they are in such a state is frustrating as if we had notification we could take action. I appreciate I can roll my solution but would be nice if SQL Monitor could do it :)

DatabaseName custom message parameter addition for Custom Webhook messages
I would like to share with the developers the alerts for the different databases we have in the same server instance. I noticed for custom webhook messages. It looks like the option was there (like monitoredEntity.azureSqlDatabaseName).
One of the SQL instances we have is a shared instance with multiple databases so the owner of the database can know exactly what database is failing
Right now I have the following custom message
{
"text": "{{alert-severity}}: An alert of type \"{{alert-name}}\" has been \"{{alert-status}}\" for {{alert-target-name}}.\r\nVisit {{alert-url}} for details."
}
Where I cannot specify which database is that alert for. I consider…

Resizing Reports
It would be quite good if you could edit the size of the report and stretch to make it easier to read. Currently (may be an option to) the data over a 7 days period for example is condensed.

Ability to export backup history detail for providing audit information easily.
possibilities I can think of that might help to add are each backup having it's own export button when the backup history graph is expanded out, including the backup history on the current excel sheet or possibly having a summary report for it in the Reports section

Record queries terminated by the client
We use an ADO client with a query timeout of 30s by default.
These queries are not being captured by SQL Monitor. If they were, it might highlight the cause of why they are taking so long.
For context, we have a query that regularly takes a couple of seconds to execute, but every hour or so exceeds the 30s timeout and we would really benefit from SQL Monitor to capture those to help diagnose why.

Extend field width of Server Selector field on top of Dashboard to be the same width as the Drop Down
Go to Dashboard; Overview tab; drill down to one of the servers. On top of this next form (Server Host Metrics form) is the Server Selector field with a Drop Down list box. When you select the down arrow key to open the List Box the width of the List box is about twice the width of the Server Selector field. Is it possible to make the width of the Selector field the same as the drop down or make it user defined/variable? Right now it's around 27 chars. We have long server aliases/names so if extended, it will help…

show sql related windows event log entries
Rather than going through all Windows event log entries looking for SQL related events on every monitored server, it would be good to have them displayed on the server screen along with the SQL Error log entries.

Have a way to exclude Deadlock alerts based on the T-SQL or Proc name
I would like to exclude alerts for deadlocks based on a procedure name or other T-SQL, just like I can do for LRQ and other alerts. Please see http://productsupport.red-gate.com/hc/requests/170766

Add a Description field in the Databases section
Dashboard, drill down to the Databases Screen. In that section, there are currently 4 fields or columns - Name, Availability, Transactions/sec, Database size. Will it be possible to add another string field to store a high level description of the database; this will be really useful for our users. Can the new field comes after the name, be 200-300 characters in length and can be a pop-up if a mouse pointer hovers over it. Many thanks.
