"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"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 most valuable feature of this solution is the alerts."
"I like SolarWinds support because it's 24/7. You describe your issues, your situation and maybe two or three hours later you can discuss a solution with a technical engineer."
"Network performance is the main issue clients are facing. SolarWinds checks if a node is down, and we can set thresholds for performance metrics. For example, we set it up to get an alert automatically if a value is over 80 percent. It has a full dashboard that covers CP, hard disk, and node monitoring."
"I can do everything remotely, including running PowerShell scripts or performing standard updates."
"The interface is user-friendly, making it easy to use."

"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"I would like to have a Syslog server module for this product. That would make the solution better."
"Technical support and releases are not particularly reliable."
"The scalability can be better."
"They have had a rather large security breach in the past. It's cost some companies customers."
"My team has had a lot of issues with support."
"A feature I would ask for is for them to have this solution available for Linux systems instead of Windows."
"The root cause analysis and installation faults are not clear."
"Time: A worldwide deployment can be confusing for dispersed users with non-local times. Each node should have a local time (with summer offset if appropriate) & each user should view & report in their local time."
