What is most valuable?
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. I find that useful in my role.How has it helped my organization?
The fact that it doesn't aggregate the information up, it's very good at troubleshooting. The fact that you have all the information there, it's very easy if you require the information to go back and… more»What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
One thing that needs improvement is how it's licensed. I understand historically the company licensed it off a same charge for everyone. I understand the company needs to make money, but how they… more»If you previously used a different solution, which one did you use and why did you switch?

With Statseeker I'd like to see some flow, i.e. what's tuning-up the network. The trend I like is managing the traffic load by going to the cloud. Statseeker tells you routing-wise how things are… more»What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I can't remember what the initial cost was, but I think we paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance.If you previously used a different solution, which one did you use and why did you switch?
We were having trouble getting meaningful statistics out of our other monitoring solutions. We used SolarWinds Orion and we still use it to some extent for other purposes. We switched to get that… more»What other advice do I have?
I'd absolutely recommend it. It's a great product. The biggest lesson I've learned from using Statseeker is the fact that granularity matters. If you look at a problem over 15-minute averages, or… more»

Just recently, we were having some issues with a certain site, and it was only Statseeker that showed us what the problem was. It was a lot of errors on a certain circuit. Then we were able to resolve that. There are other tools for network… more»What needs improvement?
Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards. The only other thing that I wish that they would implement soon is that they don't support SNMPv3 TRAPs. I would like to see that back in.What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year.What other advice do I have?
I would definitely advise them to look closely at it because it's been a benefit to us and I believe that there is a lot of value there, especially if you're in a bandwidth-constrained environment. It's not as common nowadays, but back in… more»Real User
