FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about SQLWATCH Cloud monitoring, pricing, and features.
What is an instance?
An instance is a SQL Server instance we are connecting to. For example, a single VM with two SQL Server Instances counts as two instances. For Azure SQL Database, we use a 3:1 ratio - you can monitor 3 Azure SQL databases for the cost of 1 SQL Server instance. So with a 15-server plan, you could monitor 15 SQL Servers OR 45 Azure SQL databases OR any mix (e.g., 10 SQL Servers + 15 Azure SQL databases). Availability Groups require a license for each monitored node. Windows Failover Clusters with shared storage need only one license for the listener.
What is a user?
A user is any authenticated user that logs into the web application. For MSP plans this will include MSP users as well as clients. For example, if you have a total of 5 users, this could be 3 of the MSP team and 2 clients.
Who are you?
We are a UK business located in the beautiful City of York, specialising in SQL Server and Azure. We help companies run their SQL Server platforms, and we'd like to think we know a thing or two about SQL Server. We have been in the SQL Server business for over 20 years.
How does it work?
SQLWATCH Cloud has been designed with security in mind. We use PowerShell to collect data from your SQL Servers for complete peace of mind and transparency. The data is submitted to our secure API where we 'make sense out of it'. This way, you can see exactly what is going on. You only need to install it on a single Windows Server, and it will collect data from all your SQL Servers.
What is a workspace?
A workspace is your private space where your data and dashboards are.
Can I have multiple workspaces?
Our MSP plan is designed to host multiple private workspaces that you can share with your clients. Moreover, our single pane of glass approach allows you to see all your client's workspaces in your 'home' workspace.
How many servers can I monitor?
There is no limit to how many servers you can monitor. Get in touch for a chat.
Do you collect any PII data?
We designed SQLWATCH with GDPR and security in mind. This is why your data is always isolated and located in the exact geographical location of your business. We only collect performance-related data and not user data. We will work with you to make sure the solution meets your needs.
I am worried about security
We designed this tool to be as safe as possible. We don't collect any sensitive information or user data. Only SQL Server performance-related data. However, we understand this is not for everyone, but if you would like to chat about details, please let us know!
