Redgate Monitor 14

Redgate Monitor 14.0 Release Notes

When should I upgrade?

  • We aim to release a build every week that includes the latest incremental features and bug fixes. These builds are identified by a three-part version number (e.g. v14.1.2). See below for details of improvements and fixes for each release.
  • If you want to wait until all aspects of a feature have been fully completed it’s best to use a minor version release, identified by a two-part version number (e.g. v14.3).
  • Major releases (e.g. v14) combine multiple feature releases and undergo additional QA. Bug fixes are prioritised following a major release.
