"Being able to easily, and quickly obtain disc space statistics from servers and determine how much was free or used on various volumes."

"It is scalable."
"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where you have everything right there on the screen."
"We're able to recover more expensive ports on our access line devices."
"Summary Reports provide a quick way to identify where potential issues are. Drill-downs provide more granular details very quickly."
"The most important for us is how fast this solution is, as well as the granularity that you can get to, such as per-minute statistics."
"The monitoring provided by this solution helps us to track down and solve issues."
"If you need a product that's able to monitor all the ports in your environment or all the ports that you want, this is a great product to use. Statseeker is quite flexible in tailoring the product, spending time tailoring the product with you. It's fairly low maintenance. It's quite quick."

"Complex and overly detailed setup."
"The scalability can be better."
"They need to work on their automation and automatically discover devices. They are not very good at automatically discovering devices."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve by adding the deepest inspection, performance networking, and IP address discovery."
"The solution could improve in many areas, such as the marketing and description of the products, providing areas of improvement, cloud capabilities, and being able to be more streamlined with the current integration points with other applications."
"If they’re going for a “cover everything” approach, then they need to do so and enable a bit more of the "cover everything approach" within every one of the tools."
"The integration with the APIs and the web servers deployed can definitely be improved."
"I'd say the interface could improve a little bit. I find with new users, I tend to have to spend a bit of time walking them through how to use the interface. It could be a little more user friendly."
"Detailed data can be hard to extract in CSV form. Sometimes, being able to dump down raw data would be good so various time periods across a longer period could be analysed. At present, data can be presented within Statseeker, but there is lots of "white space" between data points."
"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."
"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."
