"Darktrace's most valuable features are that it understands the network environment and is able to trace the traffic and alert on anomalies."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its traffic analysis."
"The bandwidth monitoring functionality is one of the most important features for our customers. When the customer notices that their bandwidth usage is too high for some reason, they will use the traffic analysis within SolarWinds NTA to identify which protocols (e.g. HTTPS) or applications are using up the bandwidth."
"The performance analysis is a valuable feature. With the performance analyzer, we can see the realtime monitoring, the realtime performance, and historical performance on specific components like virtualization storage, CPU, servers and network equipment."
"As it offers enterprise solutions, it has all the essential features for business."
"I like that it is able to monitor multiple devices and it's vendor-agnostic."
"It is great at telling you if your devices are working and it keeps an eye on your network's overall performance."
"The program is scalable enough for our usage."
"It doesn't cost too much."
"Darktrace could expand into EDR (endpoint detection and response) and combine it with its network detection."
"The cost is a bit on the higher side."
"Darktrace does not have any capabilities to configure."
"The level of tracking within the network from the transmission level up to the machine level can use improvement."
"It takes time to go through the interface and pick up things. If it were a more straightforward interface, then it would free up time."
"Needs to improve its collaboration with local partners."
"The dashboard and reporting for this solution could be improved as it is currently complex. The GUI for this solution could also be improved."
"In an upcoming release, there could be more customizable playbooks or a library of playbooks to choose from."
"They should work on the configuration of the Log Analyzer feature."
"Customer Support is quite complex."
"I would like to see better customization capabilities."
"Technical support could be improved with quicker response times."
"One area that we struggle with is the price. Because the price of this solution is so high, we are largely unable to introduce it into the local market, and only the banking sector has the means to afford it."
"As people always complain about the pricing for SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer, it's an area for improvement in the solution. People find it expensive. Another area for improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is support, as it could be better."
"It does not flow. It cannot do our metric performance monitoring. So it is very limited. They can do it but in a very limited fashion. It is only good for SNMP-based alerts."
"I would like to see more training videos and additional material for learning how to use this solution."
