We performed a comparison between SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer and Statseeker based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."For stability, I would give SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer a rating of ten out of ten."
"It helps us know when a branch is down because it has a graphic presentation of all the locations a node represents."
"This solution gives us important information about the utilization of protocols, particularly in terms of how often they are used."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its traffic analysis."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The monitoring is perfect, showing you the details for the utilization of resources and network bandwidth."
"What my organization likes best about SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is its easy deployment. It's also well-integrated in terms of monitoring because my organization also uses a SolarWinds solution for monitoring. You can connect SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer directly to that monitoring tool to get information. My organization also finds the default graphs that appear before the configuration in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer very useful."
"It is great at telling you if your devices are working and it keeps an eye on your network's overall performance."
"The graphics and trends are the most valuable for us."
"This solution helps in terms of troubleshooting, and you can do capacity planning with it."
"Summary Reports provide a quick way to identify where potential issues are. Drill-downs provide more granular details very quickly."
"Statseeker helps to quickly see if you have a spike or something going on. In the future, we need to get NetFlow in the tool so we can see what the IP is."
"If you need a product that's able to monitor all the ports in your environment or all the ports that you want, this is a great product to use. Statseeker is quite flexible in tailoring the product, spending time tailoring the product with you. It's fairly low maintenance. It's quite quick."
"The monitoring provided by this solution helps us to track down and solve issues."
"It also allows us to predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."
"We're able to recover more expensive ports on our access line devices."
"I would like to see more training videos and additional material for learning how to use this solution."
"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."
"Customer Support is quite complex."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence capabilities."
"The problem is that SolarWinds is trying to bolt in too much and that can leave bugs, which you have to then sort out, leaving the product unstable. SolarWinds needs to try and slow down and improve the stability of the product, as opposed to bringing out more and more features."
"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."
"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."
"It would be nice if I could easily select individual interfaces."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."
"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."
"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."
"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."
"Technical support for this solution is bad, as is everything with Cisco support."
"This solution would be improved with better automatic discovery for ping-only devices."
"I would like to have soft alarming. If an inner-base all of a sudden triggers a threshold, we have to rely on a lot of other tools and then we go into Statseeker to verify it. If Statseeker would confirm it preemptively and trigger it into our network panel, that would be nice."
