"This solution provides us with the needed feedback on our IT infrastructure. It allows us to grab all the information from a single point of view."
"The initial setup is pretty easy."
"I can create my own program sensor. This means I can add extra monitoring capabilities into the already fundamentally strong foundation."
"There was only one feature I liked about PRTG Network Monitor a lot, and that was bandwidth monitoring, though, in the newer versions of the tool, that feature is now a bit lacking. Pricing for PRTG Network Monitor is also not as expensive. It's a good tool, even for beginners."
"The bandwidth monitoring is a very attractive feature, it can tell you the bandwidth utilization while it is attempting to connect to the host for feedback."

"Currently, Broadcom Network Flow Analysis does not support high-availability solutions, making it an area that needs improvement."

"In a very few cases, customers want more detailed reports, which we cannot meet."
"The dashboarding definitely needs improvement."
"I would like the ability to monitor Cisco IRS devices."
"PRTG Network Monitor can improve by having better integration with devices."
"PRTG Network Monitor should improve the NetFlow dashboard, there is no flexibility, and the NetFlow is not meeting the business needs. Additionally, they are missing part of the configuration management."
"I would like to see them take their graphing tools and convert them into a collector so that we can point telemetry to them"
