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.


In Redgate Monitor, I want to...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. 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.

  9. For Installed Version doesn't show the patching details of the active and passive node of FCI

    For Installed Version doesn't show the patching details of the passive node of FCI
    So if cluster has 3 nodes, you should one line for each
    this will be very helpful if we have missed out on patching inany node then the SQL Monitor can high light this to us

  15. Separate notification option for both Medium and High Severity alerts

    It would be better to have Separate notification options for both Medium and High Severity alerts instead of a single distribution for both Medium and High severity alerts so that separate group get notifications depending on the severity of the alert.

  16. Report showing least or busiest server.

    I would like a report that uses the historical data collected by SQL Monitor that would show the least busy or busiest servers so that I will be able to plan where to put additional workload, or re-distribute work load.

  17. Show Compressed Backup size on Estate > Backups Screen

    Currently the backup size displayed on the Estate > Backup screen is the uncompressed backup size which is useful but it would also be useful to include the compressed backup size because that's going to be the raw file size on disk when backup compression is enabled.

    Knowing the compressed backup size is pretty useful when trying to assess how big a backup will be on disk.

  18. Change Overviews to Overview

    The "Overviews" menu item is grammatically incorrect. The menu item should be spelled "Overview". "Overviews" is most commonly used as a verb. The plural noun form is relatively uncommon and would refer to a general review or summary of multiple, distinct subject areas.

  20. Be able to run a query (or powershell) in response to an alert

    Be able to run a query (or powershell) in response to an alert.
    This would automate some responses, but also want to be able to send the RESULT of a script in the email that goes out, ie Alert to say Schema changes have been made where the email actually includes the schema changes.
