We performed a comparison between PRTG Network Monitor and Statseeker based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Network Discovery is a feature that our customers like a lot."
"It's very easy to manage when you've got time to do some work on it: things like adding devices, adding groups, adding sensor clusters, and being able to clone and move stuff around."
"PRTG Network Monitor helps us quickly and easily discover a large number of sensors, so we can spend minimal time monitoring customer sites."
"The real-time monitoring and alerting are its most valuable features."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is a central solution in terms of how to actually use it. It has a very easy dashboard. Everything is concise. We are able to create custom sensors. For different parts of the business, we have many products across many environments, and it works for everything."
"The real-time monitoring feature in PRTG is invaluable to me"
"The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is the dashboards. We can check to see the resources and the uptime."
"If somebody is complaining about slow networking then this solution allows us to see various ports to find out whether they are being overloaded."
"We were having some issues with a certain site, and it was only Statseeker that showed us what the problem was."
"This solution helps in terms of troubleshooting, and you can do capacity planning with it."
"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."
"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."
"Whether it is a down network switch or a down router, we can get back online faster for the customers."
"Device grouping is very easy, and you can discover thousands of devices in a few minutes."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where you have everything right there on the screen."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"In a very few cases, customers want more detailed reports, which we cannot meet."
"A room for improvement in PRTG Network Monitor is its sensors. Its application technology sensor, such as the IAS, .NET, etc., needs some improvement because it doesn't work as expected. For example, the IAS sensor doesn't give immediate information, and the information you get from it isn't of good value. The web GUI of PRTG Network Monitor also needs improvement because errors keep popping up if it's not been updated to the latest version. What I'd like to see in the next release of the tool is end-to-end topology mapping for the business model, and that should be required. There has to be a technical map. Technical mapping and topological creation are missing in PRTG Network Monitor, so I would like to see those in the future."
"In terms of sensors and probes, it would be really cool if PRTG had a purely Azure-based solution. We had to install a probe on one of our cloud servers and then let that probe out from there. It would be really cool if it just monitored Azure without having to install something on the device."
"It probably has this already, but if it had a mobile app that would be helpful. For example, on a day like today when I'm out, if I could just fire it up and see green, green, green, green, green or red, that would be good."
"The inventory of the device should be improved."
"They should work on syncing the solution with Gmail."
"PRTG does not allow us to scan devices like we can scan software or another problem in it. Also, I cannot draw graphical graphs in Woodview/look. Another problem is that we cannot draw a good diagram in PRTG."
"Scalability is the only major sticking point for me. There is a recommended number of sensors, which is around 10,000 and we're double that... The only option we have to scale is to buy another core, which would be a separate, stand-alone instance..."
"It doesn't do absolutely everything and it will require some additional software or hardware support to be a complete single solution."
"The user interface needs a great deal of improvement."
"The user interface needs to be made more intuitive."
"It may be helpful to have more options in the alerting section."
"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."
"It would be nice if they had twenty-four-hour technical support because we contact Australia and we have to wait for them to open."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"I would like to have soft alarming. If an inner-base all of a sudden triggers a threshold, we have to rely on a lot of other tools and then we go into Statseeker to verify it. If Statseeker would confirm it preemptively and trigger it into our network panel, that would be nice."
