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.

Multiple maintenances and slow user visibility with very long response times are the downtime issues I do not appreciate.

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.

Its integration with IT Glue is absolute garbage. I would never recommend it to anybody who utilizes IT Glue.

They can implement a more collective network mapping to help reduce any congestive features. When it came down to many of the companies we worked with, their networks were already pre-structured, so we didn't have as much congestion. Given the fact that I could see how that would be an issue, maybe there would be a better way they could collapse or compile the network mapping issues.

The network map and dashboard of Auvik Network Management (ANM) are a little bit tricky at the beginning, so people aren't trying to just steal a copy.
