  Hi Folks

  Need your expert recommendation for the performance monitoring tool that i would eventually purchase.

  Key features should be:

  1. Report on performance bottle necks.

  2. Maintain a history of selected performance metrics.

  3. Doesn't need to support more than 10 servers, but has to support these

  - SQL Server 2005

  - sharepoint server

  - reporting services

  - Analysis services

  I am also having to purchase a backup software, and considering RedGate SQL Backup (this have to support less than 5 servers)

  Please help me out with your recommendations. I have been looking at various products but it gets too confusing to decide between a powerful tool vs the money you pay for it.

  I still have to provide a budget estimate and get it approved.

  Thanks in advance for your valuable input

  Thanks

  chal

  I highly recommend looking into Quests's performance analysis.

  Sorry I can't elaborate more at the time, but go demo it ... have them put a web demo together for you. You'll be amazed.
