Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"My experience with technical support has been perfect."
"This tool allows one to analyse, integrate and customize as per the systems and allows you to set your own rules."
"ITRS uses SNMP to communicate with our devices as well as SNMP net probes installed on our servers."
"The ability to build integrations to tools that are not monitored out of the box is the most valuable feature."
"Tons of default modules which are available out of the box"
"The ability to logically normalize data gathered from multiple types of sources via pre-built plugins is extremely powerful. This functionality, coupled with the ability to import custom data via the Toolkit plugin allows Geneos to be leveraged to monitor every system in the enterprise."
"The clean and colorful UI and easy to use options like snooze and active times."
"I always appreciate Geneos's stability and ease of use."
"The Netprobe is so lightweight compared to the agents that most monitoring tools use. It's really superior to the competition. The agent that is used by almost every competitive tool takes a lot more system resources. It's slower and it requires a greater effort and more compromises in terms of security to install on the monitored servers. With Geneos, because it lives outside the code, it is far easier and far less taxing on the monitored systems."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The presentation of the features can be improved. It can be more user-friendly for the visual part of the portal and to allow the customer to be able to use."
"The ITA, the post-incident analytics, could be improved."
"At the moment Geneos is excellent and handling real time monitoring, however not great at doing historical reporting."
"Sometimes, if there is a lot of data coming onto the servers, we have observed a little bit of slowness on the gateway servers which are doing the ITRS dashboard monitoring."
"I would like to see ITRS integrate its setup editor with a SVN to check-in setup XML after major changes."
"Geneos' application monitoring could be improved a lot. Products like AppDynamics and Dynatrace provide the process thread-level monitoring, but Geneos lacks these capabilities."
"Their cloud monitoring solution needs to be improved. I have already given them the feedback that it's not capable of meeting the latest technology needs."
"Much of the reporting outside of the user interface is very basic and requires much customization to be useful."
"One area where there is room for improvement is the log file. I would like to be able to do a pre-run on the log files. When you are testing log files for regular expressions, it would be good to be able to do a quick check up front on that side of things before you release that into production."
