SolarWinds NPM Review
Allows us to recognize problems based on thresholds we set up for various resources.
What is most valuable?
How has it helped my organization?
We can sometimes fix a problem before it is even recognized by our user community based on the thresholds we set up for various resources on a production server.
What needs improvement?
They could make the process of adding various devices easier and more intuitive.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've used it for nine months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
No issues encountered.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's very scalable and customizable.
How are customer service and technical support?
Customer Service:
They have good customer service.
Technical Support:They have good technical support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I haven't used another solution like NPM before.
What was our ROI?
It's significant in my opinion.
What other advice do I have?
You can and should put the not so obvious devices onto SolarWinds. An example would be a server's back-up power supply. Otherwise you won't realize when the back-up is not functioning until the main power supply goes down and it's too late at that point.
