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."
"Meraki Dashboard does not require a lot of maintenance. Cisco tells communicates through the Meraki Dashboard web client, it will automatically send updates to the equipment. They will send you an email on what day the updates will take place. If you want to proceed, you can click on accept, or you can decline them and schedule the updates at another time."
"The most valuable feature of Meraki Dashboard is we can manage our switches and access point in one place."
"What I found most valuable in the Meraki Dashboard is straight monitoring of the different devices, as well as the ability to easily set up VPNs, for example, both Meraki client VPNs and non-Meraki VPNs for different organizations that work with my company. I also like that the tool is a really good firewall."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The ability of the product to perform with simplicity of deployment make it a valuable solution."
"An excellent dashboard that is currently unique in covering both SD-WAN and SD-LAN with built-in security."
"The most valuable feature is the single pane of glass that gives you multisite visibility."
"Great visibility on the dashboard."
"The solution reduces the complexity of our network monitoring because it can make my engineers do their jobs faster. The solution also reduces troubleshooting time for network administrators to pinpoint issues quicker."
"Whether it is a down network switch or a down router, we can get back online faster for the customers."
"I like the fact that I can aggregate multiple interfaces into a single graph. It allows me to quickly the summary of traffic for multiple devices which is helpful."
"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."
"It is fairly simple and easy to use as an all-purpose network monitor."
"The most important for us is how fast this solution is, as well as the granularity that you can get to, such as per-minute statistics."
"Grouping, Threshold/alerts, Netflow analyser, Private MIB object support are most valuable as they can provide more visibility into network performance, and for network troubleshooting."
"The most important feature is just the fact that it doesn't aggregate the information up, and I can look at detailed information going back quite a long time."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Third-party switches do not necessarily integrate easily with the system and this could be improved to allow for better adaptation."
"The one issue that we have had is that the VPN tunnel would go down unless you worked out with the ISP that you would be using a static IP address on the WAN interface."
"Some features could be added."
"The downside to the simplicity is that you can't get as granular as you could with the Cisco APs."
"Price could be reduced."
"The pricing for this solution needs to be improved."
"I think this product could be improved with a CLI for more directives."
"The solution has a limited routing table and needs improvement by increasing the numbers as well as providing a summarization for the table."
"The inclusion of configuration management features and SIP links would improve this solution."
"It could use more features on Netflow analyser, such as time series graphs and a single network export UDP port and UDP forwarding."
"This solution would be improved with better automatic discovery for ping-only devices."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"More private MIB object support, such as WAN optimisation performance and wireless, would be helpful."
"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."
"Detailed data can be hard to extract in CSV form. Sometimes, being able to dump down raw data would be good so various time periods across a longer period could be analysed. At present, data can be presented within Statseeker, but there is lots of "white space" between data points."
"We haven't seen an ROI."
