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.

Security auditing
Monitor SQL Server login and database user activity to identify unused or anomalous accounts. Supports security audits, enforces the Principle of Least Privilege (POLP), and helps retire or restrict dormant or misused accounts.

Report accounts that have not been used within a configurable time period.
Identify accounts active in unexpected contexts (e.g., unauthorized hostnames or outside normal business hours).
Allow administrators to define thresholds or parameters for expected usage and generate alerts when violations occur.

Want Estate page to report patch correctly for GDR only instances.
In the SQL Server versions page under Estate, Redgate Monitor checks for the “Latest available update” for each SQL instance. It compares the instance level with the latest patch released on the CU-path for the instance version and sets the Status column as appropriate, flagging where a patch is missing, be that CU or CU+GDR.
I would like an option to set specific SQL instances to be on the GDR-only pathway and have Redgate Monitor check and provide accurate last GDR patch and status detail for those too.
Without this change, GDR-path instances can show as "update needed" (yellow) in…

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.

I appreciate I can roll my solution but would be nice if SQL Monitor could do it :)
