DPA changed our life!
What do you like best about the product?
At many client sites, we were stuck, in a perpetual war between the DB, Network and Server teams, playing "Push the Blame" game since past so many years. After installation of DPA, we started knowing exactly, where our database performance was lagging, where the Applications were hogging the resources, where the VMs felt less provisioned. DPA was the best decision we ever took.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are fairly new on DPA, so we don't yet have explored much yet to find out any faults. However, it would be ever better if they expand the Vendors supported on DPA, a few of our SAP devices are not monitored in DPA.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As specified above, it helped us solve the eternal war between our IT teams, helps us give the seniors solid proof when we ask for better provisioning of the resources. The reports obtained through DPA are an added bonus.
SolarWinds DPA - View From Limited Use
What do you like best about the product?
Very in depth product and makes it a lot easier to find problems and root cause. Love the Tuning advisor, comes in very handy when you're not a DBA admin, and enjoy the query analysis.
Not being from a DBA background there is a learning curve to this, but if you take the input from DPA it will point you in the right direction more quickly to resolve the issue or even prevent the problem all together.

What do you dislike about the product?
Cost due to the licensing model, depending on your setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're still getting our heads around the product, but there was instantly some questions came up around tuning the databases that we hadn't realized before.
Great for those who aren't DBAs
What do you like best about the product?
Great data output, easy to understand charts that can be emailed. Our DBAs have really liked moving to the new product and we'd like to roll it out further. We host our own web applications. Being able to chart Database performance along application statistics is perfect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Separate server required to our standard Orion install. It would be nice to see the next steps of integration between DPA and the Orion Suite. We need to keep the number of VMs to a minimum.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Linking application performance to database performance when troubleshooting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get a trial and give it a try.

Would love to use it
What do you like best about the product?
it's a handy tool that will provide additional details on your performance problems which seem to usually turn out to be poorly written sql queries.

we are not fond of the cost which makes it hard for us to justify use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we would realize a number of potential problems however the cost is too much for us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
if your organization uses just a few dbs, this may not be for you. on the other hand if you are heavy in db usage and are looking for a tool, this is a great one.

Production Database Administrator
What do you like best about the product?
performance dashboard that gives a health summary of all the monitored database instances. Alerts can be customized and be used to alert for critical events that are logged in the SQL Server Error log. The ability to replay SQL Server database activity.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to read the SQL Agent job failure and identify the actual job that failed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being more proactive to SQL Server performance issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
DPA has it all. One tool that can monitor and alert all your SQL Server estate. You can also use it replay events that occur on your servers while you are sleep, it gives you all the events on your servers at at any point in time.
DPA is a pretty great tool
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I've used it for was looking for root blockers and monitoring deadlocks but just from the features that I looked at while in the trial period it can do so much more. It was easy to use and the setup didn't take much time. I know that a lot of time can be put in on it but that is something else I liked about DPA. If you are willing to spend the time and develop it, it could be a one stop shop
What do you dislike about the product?
There wasn't much that I didn't like, there were times went the program seemed slow however that could have been due to the limitations on the database I was trying it on
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were having issues with deadlocks happening during the middle of the day and DPA helped to quickly identify where they were coming from and who was causing it. (It was someone running 52 different reports in Orion for hardware monitors at the same time.) The benefits to me seem to be endless plus if given the opportunity within my current company I would like to see about getting it implemented
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool for analyzing your database with. I would highly recommend it.
