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."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"It did a good job of the collection and then an investigation of the net flow of information for understanding the applications that were being used at certain locations."
"Provides a good level of tools and covers essential components."
"I like that SolarWinds NPM is a strong tool for monitoring network devices, switches, and routers. It's also a user-friendly tool. My team also likes how scalable it is."
"The most valuable features are language support and technical support."
"It combines and presents information from many different sources, giving a corporate-wide vision on a single pane of glass."
"What I've found most valuable about the solution is that it's scalable."
"SolarWinds NPM is a scalable solution since it can handle a huge number of users."
"SolarWinds is reasonably priced."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"The integration must be improved."
"This product could improve by adding cloud monitoring. I want SolarWinds NPM to do much more integration, and have more involvement in cloud monitoring, like AWS or Google, or Azure. I feel like it requires lots of improvement for cloud monitoring in NPM."
"The root cause analysis and installation faults are not clear."
"The integration with video apps could be better."
"The SolarWinds notification and alerting configuration could be simplified as it would be easier to find if it was within the NPM web application instead of in a separate client application."
"My team has had a lot of issues with support."
"One of the challenges with SolarWinds is that in order to pull the data, we have to have a lot of false positives."
"The only thing that can be improved is to continually add to the existing capabilities of the product."
"The improvement would be that SolarWinds NPM thoroughly checks its patches before releasing them to the market. Better testing, alpha testing, and then releasing it to the market."
