Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros - Does way more than just a reporting tool. A really in-depth analysis of every storage element is provided in the plethora of high-quality reports. You can monitor and analyze every type of DB from its productive monitoring feature. Automation management API is very useful. It makes it easy to identify performance. Gives you optimizer suggestion. Cons Not very useful for light/small databases as the tool itself can be quite heavy. Not a single cons. It worked perfectly for me.	Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros We have been using Windocks for a number of years now. We currently are using 5 Windocks hosts and 40+ containers. To have access to a functional SQL server, for development or trouble-shooting production issues, in minutes is invaluable. Very reliable deliver of SQL Server database environments with cloned databased. Excellent and timely support. - concept of "database containers" to isolate enable each dev and test to work in their own writable environments - easy application of access controls so devs only access their designated environments - database cloning to minimize disk space associated with instances - familiar docker commands to environments to be updated frequently and automatically Cons I can't think of anything negative to say about Windocks. The installation is extremely easy. The upgrades are timely and useful. We have asked a lot from them feature-wise over the years and they never fail to come through. Required a DevOps mindset to adopted but more than worth it at the end. - cultural change to automate what used to be manually done by our DBA. Had to sell this internally to the team, but it was totally worth it in the end. - some initial time needed to set this up just right to automate what we wanted. Once set up, it just runs flawlessly.
