Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"I like being able to push configurations to multiple devices. If you have the same configurations for all the branches, it's easier to use ManageEngine OpManager and push configurations at once rather than individually pushing them to each device."
"We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product."
"The detections are fine when they work."
"It helps us a lot for monitoring our servers in one console, instead of going to individual servers."
"We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable."
"The component and cable monitoring are good. SolarWinds is more intuitive and user-friendly than AppDynamics. The AppDynamics console is more complex because it's a more feature-rich solution, so it's not easy for somebody to pick it up."
"SolarWinds SAM has provided us with dynamic thresholds based on historical trends and requirements. The threshold gets configured automatically, so it's no longer necessary to configure it manually every time."
"AppInsight. Provides a simple way to get very in-depth monitoring configured for our most popular applications. Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint."
"I find it to be a strong product suite, particularly when you need a comprehensive monitoring tool."
"The solution can be deployed quickly."
"The solution is great for monitoring. If something is going wrong, we can immediately find the root cause."
"Solarwinds has an open database that allows you to do serious integrations. It doesn't matter which service desk you have, you can implement and integrate it with SolarWinds."
"Monitoring of processes and services is the most valuable feature. It is not necessarily just the server alone in terms of the CPU or the memory. We can go in-depth into services and processes."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance."
"We get a lot of false alerts."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."
"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues."
"You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper."
"There needs to be improvements to make the solution capable of supporting more devices, and it would be good to see an option for automatic deployment."
"There is one feature that is a report writer. And they are currently trying to take it out from being a stand-alone application and integrating to the web. This doesn't give us the flexibility and it doesn't expand what we can get when it comes to reporting. So, putting it on the web is going to make it difficult to get some information. Leaving it where it is now will help us a lot."
"The setup was complex. We had local support to assist us."
"The product needs to reduce its price."
"Nodes in Azure are able to be monitored with the use of agents, but this does not apply to cloud service offerings that are not node based."
"The templates could use improvement. Currently, they are quite complex. They should have drag-and-drop functionality instead. It would make it easier to use."
"When you implement SolarWinds on a larger scale my customers complain about the speed."
"The product does not explain why a problem occurred."
"I believe that some of the trends, environmental maps, and items like those found in Orion would be very beneficial."
