Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"This tool allows one to analyse, integrate and customize as per the systems and allows you to set your own rules."
"The flexibility of the product is most valuable. It is highly customizable. If you put your mind to it and think of something you could do, there's a good possibility you can get it integrated within the console, if it's not readily available. The simplicity or ease of customization has been valuable."
"The remarkable feature of Geneos is the dashboard. Geneos' flexible dashboard sets it apart from other monitoring tools. Other solutions have limitations in their dashboard design and can't be customized as much. The Geneos dashboard allows unlimited creativity."
"ITRS uses SNMP to communicate with our devices as well as SNMP net probes installed on our servers."
"The NetProbe carries over 100 samplers which are capable of monitoring hardware, OS, and the application layer."
"One of the most valuable features of ITRS Geneos is the active time feature that helps with the trading applications that I support."
"One of the most valuable features is that it can be configured by non-developers. It doesn't require development expertise to configure it."
"It enables us to monitor application processes, to do log-monitoring on a 24/7 basis, to do server-level monitoring - all the hardware parameters - as well as monitor connectivity across applications to the interfaces."
"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."
"Much of the reporting outside of the user interface is very basic and requires much customization to be useful."
"Mobile phone integration is probably not as rich as it could be."
"Currently, it is difficult to monitor secure websites using SSL or with SSO enabled."
"There is a part of the rules for monitoring alerts. I want to understand more about how to choose the samples and the requirements for the rules. That is the part that I want to understand better and get better training for."
"I would like to see ITRS integrate its setup editor with a SVN to check-in setup XML after major changes."
"Backward compatibility with deprecated features and in system documentation on what configuration areas are needed to be updated."
"The main feature that needs work is the Dashboard designer."
"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."
