We performed a comparison between ScienceLogic and SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"It helps us know when a branch is down because it has a graphic presentation of all the locations a node represents."
"The dashboard alerts me when a critical device goes off the network."
"With SolarWinds, we are now able to accurately gauge bandwidth consumption."
"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."
"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."
"For managing the traffic, it provides you a response about whether the traffic is down, up, or heavy, which is a very powerful feature. It has a good response time. We have been using this solution for many years, and we don't have any problem with this solution."
"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."
"What I like the most is the bandwidth assessment."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"They need a little more self-service."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"An area for improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is the dashboarding. The user interface also has room for improvement because it's currently clunky."
"It is a scalable solution, but it is costly to scale. Therefore, I would rate scalability at eight out of ten."
"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 can be complex to set up and configure."
"This solution would benefit from having more security-based communications between the actual devices and the software itself."
"What needs improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is performance because sometimes, my team struggles too much for the solution to perform correctly for a specific deployment in my organization. Having a more detailed view in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is another area for improvement, but that's more part of the protocol than the actual solution."
"The licensing should be more realistic so that we can adjust the number of nodes according to my needs, rather than in fixed increments."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence capabilities."
