"The product is easy to use and you don't need to have any training. You can use it even if you don't have an IT background."
"If an event is detected, such as a resource running low on storage or RAM, the product will notify you via email. Upon receiving the notification, action must be taken to address and resolve the issue. The feature I find most effective is its comprehensive nature. It's like having a permanent eye monitoring the network and all its nodes. Instead of manual monitoring, it detects anomalies automatically and alerts us accordingly."
"It provides a vast array of options for dashboard creation and monitoring of the activities within the environment."
"The product's most valuable feature is network analysis."
"The product is easy to understand."
"The authentication links into our standard Active Directory authentication, which is very good."
"It is easy to use and intuitive, which is really important. It does what it says on the box by giving you a visual of the state of what is going on at any one time."
"The fact that I can use custom MIB files to customize my sensors for the things that are not there as a default is a good feature."
"The best feature is that it lets me know what is going on. I need to know if something has gone down, I need to know if something is running very slowly. PRTG tells me that."
"It has made our infrastructure more reliable."
"We like the alerting system, the SNMP monitoring and the customization of the bandwidth."
"We can see which fiber links have been used heavily and, if they are used heavily, we can introduce more links to particular buildings or particular areas."
"The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is the different monitoring probes available."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"They should work on minimizing false positives by sending alerts promptly and confirming errors with minimal troubleshooting requirements."
"PRTG Enterprise Monitor should include more functionalities and features that are similar to SolarWinds."
"The support must be improved."
"In my opinion, one area that could be improved in PRTG Enterprise Monitor is the capability to send SMS notifications. Notifications are crucial for alerting us to areas that require attention."
"There could be more security features included in PRTG Enterprise Monitor."
"Other monitoring tools that I have used are easier to use."
"PRTG Network Monitor needs to show bandwidth utilization in proper graphs. It isn't easy to learn."
"It would be good if there were better graphical interfaces when you have it on multiple monitors... Because we have so many servers, things can get lost in the fog a little bit. Maybe having a better way of showing different geographies, Flash, etc., would help."
"There is room for improvement in this solution for the performance and third-party monitoring protocols. They need to be updated to the latest ones."
"Can be slow in the way it polls the different engines."
"Maybe in the future there will be room for improvement, but currently, there is nothing pressing that I can think of"
"The scalability of this solution could improve as well as the automated provisioning of the infrastructure."
"The operations dashboard is only available in PRTG's enterprise version, but I wish it could be accessed in the standard licensing. It would also be nice if PRTG had templates for dashboard monitoring, software monitoring, etc. It can help me set up a dashboard because now we don't have a template from PRTG, so we need to create one from scratch."
