IDERA DB Optimizer vs IDERA SQL Defrag Manager comparison

DB Optimizer helps database administrators to tune and profile SQL code across database platforms. Unlike its competition, it provides automated SQL tuning and performance optimization suggestions with color-coded index analysis, database profiling of wait-time analysis for a single stored routine or an entire data source, SQL stress load testing to simulate a production environment with parallel users and executions over a specific period of time or execution cycle, and review of SQL execution and performance costs using explain plans.

Database administrators for SQL Server need to maintain the high availability and performance of their databases. Key areas that dramatically affect the performance of SQL Server are indexes that are fragmented and out of cluster. SQL Defrag Manager is a unique solution for defragmenting indexes for SQL Server. It automates the time-consuming process of finding fragmented indexes based on policies for the targeted databases. Automate the identification of index fragmentation hot spots. Defragment on-demand and via schedules. Receive email notifications for policy and resource check exceptions. Use a centralized dashboard and detailed reporting.
