We performed a comparison between LogRhythm NetMon and SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable feature is the log, which can be analyzed by our SIEM solution."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It has a very strong artificial intelligence engine."
"NetMon's best feature is traffic analysis."
"The analytics feature is the most valuable feature."
"The protocols with which you see the traffic for a particular website that a client has in their environment, for example, are valuable. We can monitor whether the traffic is up to the mark or whether they need to add more bandwidth. Also, we can see if we're able to get real-time environment data as well. The customization dashboard is really good. LogRhythm NetMon has its own in-built dashboards which are helpful in guiding customization."
"Visibility is a valuable feature, the ability to see even if the traffic is not going into the firewall"
"The solution's most valuable feature is its traffic analysis."
"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."
"In terms of the implementation, we've actually used SAM, the server and application monitoring tools. The network configuration tools are very useful in terms of bulk upgrading switches and infrastructure. Also, the Network Traffic Analyzer was extremely useful to track down errant users soaking up bandwidth."
"It is great at telling you if your devices are working and it keeps an eye on your network's overall performance."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is the alarm that is set up to trigger based on bandwidth utilization."
"With SolarWinds, we are now able to accurately gauge bandwidth consumption."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to look for any increases in bandwidth over time so that we can plan before it becomes critical."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"I would like to see better integration with multiple products. Integration is not something that is readily available for most of the products."
"LogRhythm NetMon's pricing model is an area of concern that should be made a little bit cheaper in comparison to the other players in the market currently."
"The training for this product is not very good and needs to be improved."
"Could use a topology diagram which would help get an exact visual."
"There is an issue with tunneling in relation to how the connectivity is established between the end devices and where NetMon is installed. On the console, I often observe that there's a difference of a few seconds or maybe a minute, and this lag time should not be there."
"Some of the automated tasks we can perform on QRadar cannot be performed on LogRhythm because the solution has limitations."
"Sometimes it's hard to find the network devices' self-audit logs."
"Technical support could be improved with quicker response times."
"One area that we struggle with is the price. Because the price of this solution is so high, we are largely unable to introduce it into the local market, and only the banking sector has the means to afford it."
"The pricing is expensive."
"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."
"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."
"It's scalable, but it could be simplified because it's not completely easy."
"The price of the solution is a bit high for our clients. They should consider adjusting their price model."
"Technical support needs improvement."
