Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Custom script toolkits"
"I always appreciate Geneos's stability and ease of use."
"One of the most valuable features is that it can be configured by non-developers. It doesn't require development expertise to configure it."
"ITRS uses SNMP to communicate with our devices as well as SNMP net probes installed on our servers."
"This tool allows one to analyse, integrate and customize as per the systems and allows you to set your own rules."
"The filtering in the Active Console is exceptional. Depending on the user base, some people don't want to see server-level errors, so we have filters set up in the Managed Entities view, which allow us to filter out things that certain groups don't want to see, while allowing them to see other things. It's a great real-time monitoring solution. And you can draw graphs immediately, right from the Active Console, whether they're current graphs or historical graphs."
"One of the most valuable features of ITRS Geneos is the active time feature that helps with the trading applications that I support."
"The clean and colorful UI and easy to use options like snooze and active times."
"The most valuable feature for us was the ability to monitor sites and get a nice overview of all the data in a single view."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"At the moment Geneos is excellent and handling real time monitoring, however not great at doing historical reporting."
"It needs to be easier to configure, especially with the JMX plugins."
"We all look at the same things - CPU, disk space, paging stats, service status with RAG status on each. That could be provided straight out, saving significant time."
"Data visualization – real time and historical – is a weakness."
"A lightweight version which could host more than 100 gateways, as we can see slowness while loading all our gateways."
"t needs to have better middleware integration for things such as application and Microsft SQL servers."
"Their cloud monitoring solution needs to be improved. I have already given them the feedback that it's not capable of meeting the latest technology needs."
"One thing that could be improved in terms of rapid scaling would be more ability to clone aspects of an implementation. It seems like there are opportunities in this area, where we have repetitive tasks to do when it comes to implementing things on new servers or on new gateways. It would be great if there was an easy way to clone something that had already been done."
"One area that could be improved is the reporting features. In the version transformation from ten to eleven, the platform changed from a Windows-based platform to a Linux-based platform. As a result, the previous reporting feature using Crystal Reports was no longer available. Instead, we had to generate PDF dashboard reports, which were not as flexible."
