"It has been very helpful to get notifications about various issues with my servers and network to help me take action to resolve problems before they become major issues."
"SolarWinds NPM is a scalable solution since it can handle a huge number of users."
"The nice thing about SolarWinds is that it's kind of all-in-one. I can manage the status of my networking devices, whether they are up or down, I can see how much traffic is going across an interface, and I can run a report that tells me exactly what that traffic is."
"The most valuable feature of SolarWinds NPM is the performance monitoring to see the memory, and CPU utilization."
"One of the best features is the reports feature."
"It covers everything from end to end, from the standpoint of endpoint machines and the routers and switches. The switch port also comes there."
"The product covers our needs for the basic care and feeding of servers, whether they are physical or virtual."
"SolarWinds NPM has a colorful UI and many easy-to-use features. It does not need to be configured as much and is also easy to install."
"SolarWinds dashboard is very fast. Also, their interface is very good, it looks very user-friendly. The product allows me to see a summary of the network being monitored at a glance."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There are some bugs or glitches."
"It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop."

"It is difficult for stakeholders to translate technical requirements, which results in difficulties selecting a platform or implementing a solution."
"The dashboards for this solution could be improved. We would like to divide the dashboards to give a clear view to our management team to show what we have and what deficiencies exist in our network."
"I would like to have a Syslog server module for this product. That would make the solution better."
"Scalability is a bit tricky because it requires more gateways in order to get the performance you may need. It also requires a lot of licensing."
"A feature I would ask for is for them to have this solution available for Linux systems instead of Windows."
"It has covered everything, so no improvement is required at their end. The only thing is the price."
"The console could be more user-friendly. It would be better if SolarWinds updated the user interface."
