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.

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".

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.

  3. To add on - able to save the metric of baseline in 'Analysis' page by showing different metric graph with their own baseline

    I think this idea is useful for metric comparison with the baseline. Currently, user need to select the metric every single time login into the page. This config could not be saved.

  4. Alert suppresion window by specific date every month

    We do our maintenance on scheduled windows on the 20th and 21st day of every month, including weekends.

    Currently, it is not possible to set up such a recurring alert suppression window.
    Can you add this to the Redgate Monitor alert suppression settings?

  5. Enhance query tagging in monitior overview.

    Add extra functionality to query tagging: allow colour coding of tags, add comment text to tagged queries, enable query tagging in postgresql (I am current using postgresql monitor v14.0.34 with server deployed SQL server, SQL Azure and PostgreSQL Aurora).

    Is there any timeline for this?

  6. Add ability to monitor mongodb hosted on Windows

    Add the ability to monitor mongodb instances hosted on Windows - currently only Linux selfhosted mongodb instances are supported.

    I suppose this will not be a very popular suggestion because most organisations are hosting mongo on Linux, but for the few that do - like us - it'd be very nice to have.

    I would expect this one would be easy to implement as there already is a need to enter Windows credentials for monitoring when adding SQL Server hosted on Windows.

  7. Add Index rebuild command into alert mail

    I get sometimes Fragmented Index alerts as mail.

    To fix it , I have to copy every single index name into the clipboard, switch to SSMS, write “ALTER INDEX ”, insert the index name and let SQL Prompt add the AS <table> and finally have to add the word REBUILD.

    Why do you not make it simpler for me (and other customers) and add just another column that already contains the whole INDEX REBUILD command (or REORGANIZE if the fragmentation is low) to the mail / web frontent.

    It's still to me, if I want to execute it or if…

  8. Want to monitor SingleStore Databases

    As part of our infrastructure, we utilize SingleStore databases, and we would greatly benefit from monitoring capabilities within your platform. Given its MySQL-based architecture, we believe incorporating SingleStore monitoring into RedGate’s suite would enhance visibility, optimize performance tracking, and streamline database operations.

    We kindly request that you consider adding SingleStore database monitoring at the earliest opportunity.

  10. Improvements to Alert Notifications when you have multiple alert thresholds

    You can configure alerts in Regdate Monitor to have different thresholds (low, medium, high). The problem is that all notifications have to go to the same email address(es).

    We'd suggest an improvement to allow diffent notification methods for each level. For examples, send low alerts go to one email address and medium/high go to a different email address.

    This would allow us to send the more critical alerts via OpsGenie/Jira.

  11. We would like to have a log of users that did use RedGate Monitor

    In that way we could create a report of the users when they did use RedGate Monitor. example a weekly or monthly report showing how many times a user did use the application.

  12. SQL Versions Page

    Hi there,

    We maintain a number of legacy SQL Servers that are still monitored via SQL Monitor. I regularly use the SQL Versions page to identify which instances require patching.

    However, some of these servers are under a permanent patch freeze, and I’d like to update their status to “OK” so they no longer appear as needing attention.

    It would be amazing if one could update the patch status for these servers within Redgate to mark them as compliant to reflect their frozen state.

  13. Grant Web Client Access for Specific Elastic Pool, Instance or Database

    We can currently share the web console out at the Server, Cluster or Replica level.
    I would like more granularity and be able to share at lower levels:

    • SQL Server Instance
    • Azure SQL Elastic Pool
    • Azure SQL Database

    We are a very large IT department with people dedicated to individual systems/databases.
    I would prefer to hide things they don't own.

  14. Tracked queries only available to admins

    Tracked queries are only available for Administrators. Would it be possible to adjust the permission for Standard users to allow for this feature? At the moment we are forced to assign admin roles more broadly than we’d like because of insufficient granularity of permissions.
    And this feature (especially if combined with some metadata as highlighted in https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com/forums/91743-suggestions/suggestions/46675642-ability-to-add-notes-to-tracked-queries ) is a shame to not allow standard users to utilize.

  15. Add multiple actions for alerts based on different conditions

    It would be nice to be able to configure different actions for the same alert based on different criteria.

    For example, with the SQL Job failure alert - It would be very useful to be able to have these alerts go to X email address if the job contains "DBA" in the job name, and the alert go to Y email address if the job doesn't contain that text in the job name (This is just a basic example, being able to configure multiple of these types of filters would be the goal).

    Right now the only possible…

  16. that DevOps team that can only monitor their own database can also suspend them without having administrator rights

    at the moment when people have administrator rights within Redgate Monitor they can suspend their databases but also all other databases we monitor. we would like to be able to grant teams rights to only be able to suspend the databases that they use and have rights to see within Redgate Monitor.

  17. Analytics Dashboard Selection Parameters

    On the Analysis Dashboard there are lots and lots of Metrics. Not all of them are Availbale for ervery RDBMS. It would be good to have switches to narrow down the Metrics to SQL-Server or Postgres Parameters, e.g. if you swich on Postgres only Metrics for Postgres Servers are shown.

  18. Show Estate Groups in the "For" Dropdowns in Reports

    In the Reports section, there is a "For" dropdown that allows you to select specific instances or "Everything".  It would be helpful to be able to select a Groups of instances on the report or individual tiles within the report. These groups are setup in Configuration > Estate > Groups.

    For example, you could group your servers into Production/Staging/Dev, then you'd be able to setup a report that only shows Production metrics/issues.
