Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"It is simple."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"What I like about SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is that it's useful for analyzing traffic. It also has an application visibility feature that lets you control applications."
"For managing the traffic, it provides you a response about whether the traffic is down, up, or heavy, which is a very powerful feature. It has a good response time. We have been using this solution for many years, and we don't have any problem with this solution."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its traffic analysis."
"The performance analysis is a valuable feature. With the performance analyzer, we can see the realtime monitoring, the realtime performance, and historical performance on specific components like virtualization storage, CPU, servers and network equipment."
"With SolarWinds, we are now able to accurately gauge bandwidth consumption."
"The most helpful feature of SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is bandwidth analysis, which lets you see who's hogging your network."
"The bandwidth monitoring functionality is one of the most important features for our customers. When the customer notices that their bandwidth usage is too high for some reason, they will use the traffic analysis within SolarWinds NTA to identify which protocols (e.g. HTTPS) or applications are using up the bandwidth."
"They have instructional videos and other information available on the site to assist you with learning it."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"The licensing should be more realistic so that we can adjust the number of nodes according to my needs, rather than in fixed increments."
"What needs improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is performance because sometimes, my team struggles too much for the solution to perform correctly for a specific deployment in my organization. Having a more detailed view in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is another area for improvement, but that's more part of the protocol than the actual solution."
"It does not flow. It cannot do our metric performance monitoring. So it is very limited. They can do it but in a very limited fashion. It is only good for SNMP-based alerts."
"As people always complain about the pricing for SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer, it's an area for improvement in the solution. People find it expensive. Another area for improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is support, as it could be better."
"This solution does not do a very good job when I am trying to look deeper into my internal network, in particular with respect to individual ports."
"It is very slow to pick the dynamics of the network."
"SolarWinds' technical support is ok, but it could be faster and more knowledgeable."
"It's not a cheap product, so the pricing could be improved."
