Monyog

Benefits:

UI and Tracking of Queries in real-time without enabling performance schema, ability to view historical data.

Drawbacks:

need improvement to get more insight view about security and Database privileges changes and their details in brief.

Benefits:

Simple, quick access to our databases. The interface is simple and clean

Drawbacks:

Sometimes it is unclear that my editor is not pointed to a particular database so my queries don't work

In sum:

SQLYog allows us to quickly check our databases and has enough depth of functionality to run our mor complex requests

Benefits:

Ease of use! Provide the appropriate credentials and you're off and running! Very simple to setup and maintain. We're very happy with Monyog!

Benefits:

I love a vast range of monitoring tools available in this product. It has great overview on dashboard and provides excellent monitoring of most usable features on dashboard. It also has a great notification system like administrators get notified once any user changes any configuration.

Drawbacks:

Sometimes I feel its a bit slow but that can be understandable because in backend it must be doing a lot of processing to process a lot of data to let users monitor their server properly.

In sum:

My overall experience has been great so far I have no issues. I must say it is great tool and I would recommend all who want to monitor their MySql Servers.

Benefits:

The graphical user interface is very user friendly. The tool loads fast and the graphs are helpful. I most like the feature with the red / yellow / green tips on what may not look correct in a given configuration. Agentless is also nice as to not add additional bloat to servers.

Drawbacks:

Mostly, I like everything so far. I wish we had lifetime upgrades and not one that expires after 12 months. Otherwise, the tool seems pretty good so far. Keep up the good work.

Benefits:

Very easy to use, software so predictable , user don't need much knowledge about SQL to use this, its a great tool very powerful, graphic and have more options that competition.

Drawbacks:

It's a great software, i can't say very much problems, the constant publicity of their seminars web (webinars) is a shame, only that

Benefits:

The realtime capture of queries and slow query analysis has been a boon. The ability to look at and alert based on db performance and other metrics assists our team to head off issues before they happen The ability to look at historical queries and performance is great BEAUTIFUL WEB UI!

Drawbacks:

I wish there was a clustered/redundant option that would allow us to replicate the captured data, in case one machine dies. It's a bit slow at times when pulling up longer captures that are setup using the realtime capture feature.

In sum:

Visibility into database usage and queries so that our tech team can proactively monitor and optimize our db as well as our application code. Reduce number of incidents caused by DB issues.

Benefits:

MONyog looks like the beginnings of a nice offering, though ultimately I am unlikely to use it since it's not Free Software. The most important advantages over other monitoring systems, in my opinion, are the simplicity and ease of use, the agent-less installation, and customizability.

Benefits:

the dashboard panel and the ability to tell what the hit ratio is on the e-cache is great. that is an example of how I wish they all worked. it knows we should know that and it seemed to automatically start showing that without me needing to do anything.

Drawbacks:

trying to figure out what it means to "configure a monitor" - I don't mind seeing the code it is going to execute - but I have a hard time figuring out any details about intended or typical usage. I cannot tell whether they are indicating hints on how to configure the my.ini file, whether the my.ini needs a certain setting to activate or what the expert would do to set up that certain monitor. having them separate is fine, allowing granular configuration. my hope is a far more turn-key rev that opens up knowing that we want to see db throughput, e-disk usage, any kind of errors (I have tried but failed to figure out how to link MySQL error log to MonYog), and a better way to look at queries or other system activity that is not operating as efficiently as it *should*. I will say, it is difficult for this level of admin software to be made simple, when it really isn't simple. I'm primarily a developer and don't have formal db admin training. I would like to use Monyog to know that everything is running properly and I'd like to know common sense nips and tucks that could be very helpful in gaining maximum performance from the db. to be honest, I would probably be willing to pay a consulting fee for someone to help take the mystery out of implementation in a way that gets my configuration of monyog improved. thanks!

Benefits:

It is very easy to use monitoring solution for all database checks. Alerting and configuration settings are made real easy. A very cool GUI with clear dashboards. excellent support team that responds right away for any questions you have!

Drawbacks:

Monyog should conduct some technical webinars every time it releases the new features and versions and let the users know about its benefits
