"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is real-time monitoring."
"Good compilation of the system's information."
"The remote probes are very useful. They allow us to provide a reference across different areas in the network. In trying to localize issues, that's very useful."
"Speed of deployment is one of the most valuable features."
"One of the valuable features is the diversity of metrics available to us to monitor. It's all there, it's all in the box. It's all made very easy, by virtue of it being pre-configured."
"The feature whereby it shows when my hard drives are moving towards thresholds that would be considered outages, before they reach that point - that is valuable."
"PRTG is integrated on Windows."
"The authentication links into our standard Active Directory authentication, which is very good."
"It is simple."
"It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"Power packs."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"When using PRTG Network Monitor it is beneficial if you have prior experience with it, the user interface could improve."
"We need something that is more predictive. We would prefer if it wasn't a solution that was corrective and instead offered predictive insights so that we can handle problems before they even occur."
"In a very few cases, customers want more detailed reports, which we cannot meet."
"There's always room for improvement. The high availability feature is good, but it's an area that PRTG could marginally improve. For example, in PRTG, both servers have a different IP, but it would make things a lot easier if they were bound by a single IP."
"When it comes to third-party integration, one of the things we were looking at was putting some sensors onto our firewall, for instance. If there were a little bit more documentation and some step-by-step guides around that, that would be useful for us."
"This solution is a good product so far, but I haven't been using it long enough to know how it could be improved."
"Can be slow in the way it polls the different engines."
"Mostly, this software has sensors for devices to monitor specs and you can build or develop or modify various sensors, according to your company's needs. But you may need to do that with coding or plugins or with the support of Paessler AG, the manufacturer."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
