We performed a comparison between Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service and PRTG Network Monitor based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."Real-time alerting is a very important feature. We need alerts for everything. We have alarms setup and get alerts through email or third-party integrations depending on what's happening – critical VMs, high CPU usage, security concerns."
"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."
"Stable and scalable network monitoring tool. Installation is simple and straightforward."
"The alerting is the most valuable feature. I also like the iPhone app. I get alerts in an email on the iPhone app."
"It has made our infrastructure more reliable."
"It allows us to directly add individual VMs independently."
"The Slack integration is fantastic, and I've actually found it to be very useful recently."
"I think net flow is PRTG's most valuable feature because it doesn't cost much for us because the net flow sensor is already included in the PRTG license. We can monitor our traffic in our proxy and router."
"The feature I like is that it can easily do a lot of mapping."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
"I have an issue with DFS, distributed file services... there isn't one by default. Taking into account the difference between DFS and DFSR as well would be great."
"With custom sensors, there is a lot of work which needs to be done in the background, just for it to be tailor-made for the specific thing that we are actually monitoring. We take a lot of time with the custom sensors. I would like to see the customer sensor be more robust and a bit more varied."
"The only sort of limitation is the actual probes. So, if you don't have enough probes on there, you can over flip them and cause the WMI sensors and SNMP sensors to sort of overload. Sometimes, they might timeout for a minute, but they do come back."
"Other monitoring tools that I have used are easier to use."
"Can be slow in the way it polls the different engines."
"Once you start going above 5000 sensors, things do start to get a bit shaky. There are some best practice out there that you will need to adopt and be aware of."
"The free version only gives us 100 free sensors to use. It would be nice if there was double that."
"There is room for improvement in this solution for the performance and third-party monitoring protocols. They need to be updated to the latest ones."
