"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."

"The dashboards need to be improved."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"The aesthetic widgets should be dynamic widgets, so the customization can be even more customizable."
"Complex and overly detailed setup."
"The integration needs to be improved."
"One of the challenges with SolarWinds is that in order to pull the data, we have to have a lot of false positives."
"Robustness of network element mapping tool could be better"
"SolarWinds needs to be improved such that it is on par with the leading products in the market."
"The only real caveat that we have or that I have an issue with is when I go on vacation, it's a little hard for me to go and modify alerts so that I don't get alerted about things when I'm on vacation."
"The reporting is good, but I want it to be a little easier when creating custom reports. The reports are all on the website now, but it takes some know how to get some to display the way you would like."
