“Our company grows quickly. We have got plans to improve monitoring our SQL infrastructure. At first, I tested ApexSQL Monitor for our one important instance and I would like to use this for production. In future, we need to choose monitoring software for our others instances (about 50 servers). I will recommend ApexSQL Monitor because it joins simplicity and powerful capabilities. I'm surprised how much time we can save!”
