"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"It reduced cycles for a lot of quick out-of-the-box functionality. It also allowed us to get away from being stuck in SNMP, VTP V2, based off of agent deployment."
"It gives us a map of the network setup and one console to see the entire network."
"All the features are very good. The monitoring of the equipment, the configuration manager, and the IP address monitoring are great."
"With just three modules, I can monitor server performance (whether it’s a VM, in the cloud, or an on-premises server."
"The most valuable features are language support and technical support."
"We have configured multiple alerts for our network devices, including routers and switches, so that we are notified if any interface goes down."
"We can proactively fix historical issues, so we won't face those problems in future."
"It is very extensible with 'SWQL' and APIs to where we are beginning to integrate it with network automation."
"Monitoring capabilities are at a high level and it is easy to see utilization, access ports, and CPU memory in real time or through a lens for long-term visualization."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"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."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"A feature I would ask for is for them to have this solution available for Linux systems instead of Windows."
"The solution is not always good with new features, so it's take a long time."
"It has covered everything, so no improvement is required at their end. The only thing is the price."
"I would like to see some enhancement on the reporting side, such as making it a little bit easier to create reports or having a larger assortment of canned reports."
"Application Performance Monitoring should be included in this solution."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve the graphics of the interface and more customized reporting."
"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."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve by adding the deepest inspection, performance networking, and IP address discovery."
