PROS

Mapping topology and network discovery capabilities ensure users gain comprehensive insights into connected devices, ensuring seamless infrastructure visibility.
Traffic insights and alerting functions offer real-time notifications, empowering users to monitor bandwidth, detect anomalies, and address network issues proactively.
Configuration backups and version comparisons simplify device management, allowing automatic change tracking and efficient troubleshooting.
Remote access and secure troubleshooting features enable efficient management of network devices from any location, reducing the need for on-site intervention.
Integration with cloud-based platforms and ticketing systems enhances operational efficiency by automating incident resolution and streamlining workflow processes.

CONS

Auvik Network Management's network mapping is inaccurate, often misrepresenting topologies and VLANs, making it unreliable for larger deployments.
Pricing concerns relate to high costs, especially for smaller organizations, and the per-device billing model can be problematic for extensive networks.
The alerting system lacks granularity, resulting in an overwhelming number of notifications that are challenging to manage and filter appropriately.
There is limited integration with diverse hardware vendors, which hinders comprehensive device monitoring and system compatibility.
Reporting capabilities are underdeveloped, lacking real-time functionality, customization, and ease of generating detailed reports.

Most importantly, Auvik Network Management (ANM) does not have server monitoring and server hardware monitoring, which LogicMonitor has, and these features make me continue to use LogicMonitor.

Customer support could be better, as I mentioned earlier. I haven't had to reach out for a while, but when I have, it took a minute to get to someone who could help or who knew what I was talking about.

However, when we have a lot of equipment on-site, the map is very big, and the results show at the bottom, requiring us to scroll down and compare results, which is a problem depending on the screen size; I sometimes need to crop the map or results.
