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 monitoring alerts. The administrators are immediately notified and can do the required action immediately. This is the feature we value and use the most."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."
"The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them."
"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."
"Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly."
"This is a good general monitoring system that has all the features we require and they constantly update with new capabilities."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product."
"It helps the entire organization become digitally enabled."
"The alerting is the most valuable feature. I also like the iPhone app. I get alerts in an email on the iPhone app."
"PRTG has improved our visibility and response time to issues related to remote sites."
"It is easy to use and intuitive, which is really important. It does what it says on the box by giving you a visual of the state of what is going on at any one time."
"The solution provides us response times to issues."
"The tool is integrated with our email for the alerts."
"Its proactiveness is its most valuable feature. We already know when we come in, in the morning, if a server or site is down, as opposed to someone telling us."
"The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is real-time monitoring."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"The only problem with it is that the setup isn't very intuitive. I know that they just upgraded the product to make it a little bit easier to use, but compared to some of the other platforms, it is not easy to configure it, set it up, and get it running. However, once you have set it up and got it running, it runs great."
"It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically."
"With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
"There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop."
"The initial setup is a bit complicated. It needs a technician who is very aware of the flow and how to officially set up the flow chart, etc."
"It is sometimes difficult to manage the user interface. It can get very complicated."
"This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance."
"I would like to see them take their graphing tools and convert them into a collector so that we can point telemetry to them"
"PRTG does not allow us to scan devices like we can scan software or another problem in it. Also, I cannot draw graphical graphs in Woodview/look. Another problem is that we cannot draw a good diagram in PRTG."
"They just released a newer version of the desktop app, a beta version, that I have been trialing out. I prefer the older version, only because of how the layout is designed"
"In the next release, PRTG Network Monitor should add a backup solution."
"I would like to see a more robust platform and a new dashboard. In addition, the code is good, but it needs improvement."
"It would be good if there were better graphical interfaces when you have it on multiple monitors... Because we have so many servers, things can get lost in the fog a little bit. Maybe having a better way of showing different geographies, Flash, etc., would help."
"Its price can be better. Its price is a problem for us because it is in dollars, and there is a high conversion rate. In terms of new features, it can have BGP monitoring. It should also have a dashboard and maps editor."
"This product can be improved by updating the net flow interface. The one that is in place works – I can get all the information I need from it – but it is a little bit clunky."
