So, What WAS That Tool?
"I wrote about some performance issues we
were chasing. The issues were revolving around a symptom of disk
queues growing, system performance lagging in spurts, etc. The folks over at SQL Sentry jumped on that
and helped us out - they helped show off their new performance dashboard and at the same time shine some serious light on our server and the issues we were seeing."

Performance Advisor: A Quick "Two Thumbs Up"
"I have been playing with Performance Advisor, the new companion to the very popular Event Manager software from SQL Sentry.

While a late comer to this segment of the market, Performance Advisor has definitely been worth the wait."

Know What's Happening: Keep Tabs on your SQL Server Jobs
"We've all been in situations where we spend a great deal of time navigating the complicated Web of inter-server SQL Agent jobs to find resource contention and scheduling problems.

One of the few third-party devices available to help with this task is SQL Sentry Event Manager."

MaximumASP Raises the Bar on SQL Server Hosting with Event Manager
Before Event Manager, we used the burdensome process of specialized scripts and manual documentation to manage our job schedules. We also tried a collection of different third-party products, but nothing exhibited a true understanding of what DBAs really need. I can't imagine going back to the old methods or using some of the less comprehensive competing products in an attempt to tackle the same problems.
