    Top Answer:The solution effectively monitors network devices and servers.
    Top Answer:I cannot provide a price rating because we purchased a one-time perpetual license. It's all ours, and we're still enjoying it. We renewed support until last year, but we didn't get benefits from it.
    Top Answer:There is room for improvement in server management and application monitoring. An additional feature I would like to see in the next release would be more detailed application monitoring capabilities.
