| Hi thereI am evaluating monitoring tools specifically for SQL Server. I come accross the Applications Manager 7.1 from ManageEngine and it seems it's really good. I am just wondering if any one know other product out there. Also, how about MOM 2005 from Ms?Thanks your input. |

| We bought Quest software and to tell you the truth its ok...it gives you a nice graphical picture but i must admit profiler is your friend......it takes some time to figure it out and what to run on it but its worth while spending time with it.I use quest when i want an overall picture of the CPU.....i can get a drill down on sessions and what select statements they have run ...but thats about it... |

| If you can, use the tools that come with SQL and Windows. Profiler and Performance Monitor in Windows to monitor resources.I've noticed that the integration between MS products is better than 3rd party products.MOM is also quite good but configuring it can be a headache.RegardsNThe revolution won't be televised! |
