Improvements for the Alerts view in the SQLSentry Portal

• The Alerts view in the portal could benefit from some of the functionality of the Start Page and Actions Log in the thick client. It has the potential to serve us better than those tools, but currently the lack of the below features makes us not use it as much.

• 1. Add filtering for all columns, but especially (Condition) Name.
  2. Add saving filters and picking a pre-saved filter.
  3. Allow grouping by a column and adding Notes/Acknowledging grouped alerts in bulk.
  4. The Alert message pop-up is missing some of the values we can see in the Actions Log of the thick client for advisory conditions. Especially advisory conditions with an "any" clause will not show the details in the portal alert message.
  

• A nice to have would be dedicated sections to display the detailed alert message and Notes rather than the modal popups (similar to the Actions log). This would allow for more quickly going through the alerts for triage without constantly expanding and closing a popup. Perhaps these could just be columns which when hovered over show the message as a tooltip.
