Auvik Network Management (ANM) Reviews

We have a medium-sized business. We have two data centers and two small physical offices. Our main goal is to monitor the traffic between the data centers to get an idea of the traffic, and our current firewalls don't offer that as a solution.

The main selling point was the traffic insights feature, which better explains our network traffic. Auvik has many different features, but we primarily want it for traffic insights. It has monitoring and network discovery. Network discovery is useful, but we already have a monitoring solution. The network map is easy to use.

The onboarding could be a bit better for Auvik. We've had a few issues out of the gate because we already had an existing Auvik setup that was invalidated. Given that we're a new customer, it's taken a while to get support for these issues. It's taken a couple of days, but I would have thought that as new customers, we'd get priority support until the solution is running. 

I would like it if you could filter out workstations. We've got Windows workstations and servers, but we only care about the servers. It would be nice if we could filter out devices based on the operating systems, so we don't have to see the workstations, but you can't. 

We used the Auvik trial for about three weeks and then purchased the full product after a couple of months. We're now a week into using it.

I rate Auvik nine out of 10 for stability. I haven't had any downtime. 

I rate Auvik nine out of 10 for scalability. It has the potential to scale because you can add collectors or create new sites as needed. 

I rate Auvik support seven out of 10. The people I've spoken to have been pleasant, but it's taking a while to deal with our outstanding issues. 

We also use PRTG for our network monitoring. We invested a lot of money in PRTG, so we can't replace it all yet. We adopted Auvik for its traffic insights. 

It should be straightforward, but some things don't work, and the guides aren't necessarily correct either. We've used it for a week now and don't have much in there because there are a few teething issues that I've opened tickets for. 

The price is what I expect for a product like Auvik. It's reasonably priced. 

I rate Auvik eight out of 10. 

We initially implemented Auvik Network Management because we lacked network visibility. During the trial, the traffic analysis feature unexpectedly revealed malicious connections. This pop-out function within Auvik allowed us to break down traffic and identify TeamViewer sessions by destination, ultimately helping us pinpoint the source. This unexpected benefit, along with its core alerting functionality, convinced our executives of Auvik's value.

While the network map offers near real-time, full visibility into our network, it's limited to managed switches. This means the current drawback lies solely with outdated infrastructure, and the most effective solution is an upgrade.

The interface is intuitive and user-friendly.

After deploying Auvik Network Management within a week, I gained complete visibility into our network traffic. Alarmingly, it revealed a significant amount of unauthorized software and social media usage, with Facebook alone accounting for a quarter of our traffic within just a day. This immediate insight allowed us to take swift action and shut down the problematic activity, demonstrating the clear value of Auvik from the beginning.

In my experience with entry-level technicians at our co-op, Auvik Network Management has been a valuable tool. It simplifies network mapping and understanding for beginners and even helps me proactively manage tickets. With Auvik, I can identify potential issues before they escalate into major alerts, or use existing alerts to create tickets for faster resolution.

Auvik Network Management helps us spend less time on maintenance and setup of the solution and less time on the issue resolution.

Auvik Network Management was a time-saver, but more importantly, it provided greater network visibility which ultimately improved security. Instead of spending time sifting through logs for issues, Auvik's features freed me up to implement solutions and proactively enhance network security.

The most valuable features are the traffic analysis and the network mapping.

The network map is great overall, but it loses track of devices when their IP addresses change. This means we have to manually remove them and let them re-add, or use static IPs. Every month, a bunch of devices change IPs and end up in a random category, disrupting the map's organization. That's my only complaint - otherwise, it's user-friendly and functional.

I previously evaluated one of Auvik's products, but it felt incomplete as a standalone SaaS offering. Ideally, Auvik would bundle this product with its other solutions for a more comprehensive network management experience.

Auvik Network Management needs to improve its operational technology coverage. 

I have been using Auvik Network Management for one year.

Auvik's stability is good overall, with frequent maintenance windows that haven't caused major disruptions for me. While these windows could potentially interfere during a security event, they are thankfully short and reasonable.

Auvik Network Management handled my network well. It discovered devices across multiple VPNs and even unconfigured switches with default settings. This scalability was impressive, as it automatically connected to various sites with limited access, saving me time and effort.

I contacted technical support as soon as I noticed the issue with Auvik not being able to automatically remap devices that changed their IP. 

Positive

While I previously used Cisco Firepower for its rule-based functionality, it wasn't a true replacement for Auvik Network Management. Firepower seemed redundant for my needs since Auvik already provided the network visibility I required.

Auvik Network Management's deployment impressed with its ease of use. Installing the collectors, entering credentials, and letting it discover devices was a breeze. While building a complete network map took a couple of days due to complexities like potential network loops, it began providing valuable insights immediately.

The deployment took two hours.

I took advantage of Auvik's three-hour technical support to configure alerts and receive a high-level overview of their Network Management platform, but I handled the actual deployment myself.

Auvik Network Management's pricing was surprisingly reasonable. Even my C-suite executives, who initially anticipated a much higher cost, found it to be quite fair.

Cisco Visibility provided better coverage for the operational technology side of my network compared to Auvik Network Management. However, Cisco's high cost was a drawback, while Auvik offered a more affordable option with the added benefit of traffic analysis and alerts.

I would rate Auvik Network Management ten out of ten.

Our entire IT infrastructure, including all servers and pretty much everything else, is managed by Auvik. The only area I'd like to improve is Operational Technology monitoring. Since our CNC machines run small Windows deployments, Auvik doesn't monitor them as effectively as an OT-specific solution would.

The only maintenance I need involves manually clearing out IP addresses instead of letting Auvik automatically refine and remap them, which can be frustrating. This can cause a device's IP to change several times, leaving outdated entries in a grayed-out section. It's a minor inconvenience but would improve the overall user experience.

Due to our focus on privacy, our company wasn't sold on Auvik's standalone SaaS solution, feeling it was excessive for our needs. While it excelled at shadow IT discovery and endpoint monitoring, it lacked vulnerability scanning and remediation capabilities. Integrating these features into their existing product would be far more valuable, allowing for automatic updates and patching alongside IT asset monitoring. While Auvik's SaaS product is okay, it wasn't the right fit for us.

Don't miss out on configuring Auvik's alerts! The default settings are overly broad, notifying you about everything from critical issues to minor inconveniences like low printer toner. Take advantage of Auvik's customization options to ensure you only receive alerts for important events.

Auvik is a tool that discovers all the networking assets within our clients' sites. Many other tools do this, but we like how Auvik integrates into our existing infrastructure. The primary use case is discovering all our networking devices, managing them, and setting up alerts. We use Auvik with a combination of other tools. It's integrated with our ticket management system where most tickets are escalated. 

We deployed Auvik at a new client yesterday evening, and we can see almost everything within the network now. We've had access to the firewall. After a bit more configuration, we can see the network map populate.

Auvik's network maps and diagrams are solid. Once everything is fully dialed in and the network devices are properly speaking to Auvik, you have a perfect network diagram. 

The solution is easy to use.  Learning Auvik only requires you to play some games on your machine, but there is no steep learning curve. There has never been a time when I didn't understand something about the technology. I don't think the learning curve would be high for someone without a technical background. It's so intuitive you don't need to dive deeply into various menus to find what you want. 

Auvik gives you a real-time picture of your network. I've never designed a network map that captures every data point, but Auvik does that. A network map gets cumbersome for end users because you see everything. You might see 25 to 100 nodes connected to an access point. If you are having issues with the network map, you can zoom in on the area you want to focus on.

To get the details about applications in Traffic Insights, you need to dive into the applications as a general category. You can see the users using the application, but I cannot pull each component into the report. Let's say I'm going to an end-user or a client. When I print a report, it comes out with 10 pages about the usage, resources, etc. 

I want to see details about the resources I use, and I can't do that. We have this data in a graphical format, and we can get the data provided in Traffic Insights by using other components within Auvik. I want a detailed report that we could present to the client. I was told at one point that we could produce this through integration with another solution. We tried that, and it didn't work. We did a service ticket again and spoke to the relevant persons, but there were false positives. 

They should pull the Traffic Insights feature until they're finished developing it. I cannot generate a report. It's all about monitoring, not configuring or backing up anything. It's just about monitoring, so I can't pull the report. Traffic Insights should be able to do that. 

The network map could be more customizable. You can decide whether you want a comprehensive map or only want to see the core network features. It all depends on the shape the end-users want for the network map. It's not the traditional shape that we're used to in IT. They could introduce something where the map can adapt to new shapes.

I have used Auvik for two years at two organizations. 

I rate Auvik support eight out of 10. They're great. Auvik responds to feature requests. A while ago, there was a useful feature missing, and Auvik jumped on it. 

Positive

The onboarding went smoothly. Some of Auvik's team helped us. It was very quick. The core solution was deployed within a month. 

Auvik offers a solid value because it only bills for the core components like switches, firewalls, etc. It isn't billing for every discoverable device. The cost is manageable. Many critical devices are covered but not billed. I would consider all of the clients' assets critical. We don't have a tiered system. 

I rate Auvik eight out of 10. 

We're an MSP using Auvik to monitor our customers' networks for outages and other issues. Our clients are mostly large enterprises in the UK. 

Auvik has improved our monitoring of contracts for service outside of normal business hours. If anything goes offline after hours, we can alert our engineers immediately, so they can get it working as fast as possible.  

The solution has helped our junior technicians solve more tickets. They can log in at our office and see what's happening and then contact the customer about it. It saves us a lot of time because it can tell us the status. Sometimes, we'll finish troubleshooting halfway, and the device will return online. Without a solution like Auvik, we might not notice it's online, so we will waste time trying to fix it. I don't have a precise figure, but I would estimate that Auvik reduces our resolution time by about 30 percent. 

Auvik allows you to set maintenance windows and notify users when something is offline. Auvik's interface is easy to use, but maybe that's because I've gotten used to it. The layout is clear. At the same time, there are so many features that it's complicated. The dashboards give us a real-time overview of the networks. It's simple and easy to use as you give it access to your network.

Setting up the maintenance windows can be a bit complicated. 

We have used Auvik for three years.

I rate Auvik nine out of 10 for stability. It's definitely stable. We barely need to touch it. It goes offline every now and then, but that doesn't happen often. 

I rate Auvik 10 out of 10 for scalability. 

We don't rely on Auvik's support. There's a lot of documentation available, but we seldom need to use it because it's easy to use and the interface is intuitive enough to figure a lot of it out. 

We previously used Meraki's monitoring solution, but it doesn't send alerts the same way Auvik does. Auvik is better for that.

Setting up Auvik is pretty straightforward. I can build and deploy Auvik alone in one day. It requires some updates and configuration changes but no significant maintenance. 

I rate Auvik Network Management nine out of 10. I recommend Auvik for network visibility and any type of network monitoring. 

We are an MSP. We use Auvik to monitor our customers and to get up/down tickets. We get alerts from the SIEM, so we use it to make sure where those clients are in the SIEM. If we get an alert that something is sending 5 gigs, we can use it to make sure it is on the network or not on the network. We use it for alerts as well. That is mainly about it. We also give network maps to the customers to use.

A lot of our clients want compliance. There is active monitoring of the system, and it is just easier to get a network map. It is easier to see all the clients that are on the network. If somebody needs to know who is using the x subnet, we can search for it and send it off to them. It is pretty easy in that respect for most of our customers.

Auvik Network Management makes it a little bit easier to troubleshoot network issues. If we get an alert saying that there is a high interface usage, or something is very high, I can click right on the switch and look at it. I can see which port is being utilized. I can see the total utilization on the switch. If I need to, I can terminal into it and turn it off or turn it on.

Auvik's network map along with its dashboard gives us a close to real-time picture of our network. It is not in real-time. It is close enough to real-time. If I want to see how much traffic is going from all the clients to the server over the course of a day, I can see that. However, if I want to see a broadcast storm or if we accidentally created a loop or something, it gives me the tools to find it, but it does not explicitly tell me that we created a loop. In terms of visibility, if I click around, I can get about 90% visibility for investigating things.

We have been able to more quickly identify issues in the network. We did not do documentation on clients before. It is now easier for us to get the documentation done because we can see that there is a switch here and there is a switch there, and get it done. For new clients, I can plug it in and put it in the network. I do not have to walk everywhere. These are the nice, immediate, and tangible benefits that we saw.

Auvik Network Management has helped to decrease our mean time to resolution, but it is hard to quantify the time savings. Sometimes, you have to dig in. It at least cuts 30 to 45 minutes off of getting into the server, logging into the switches, pulling all the switches up, etc. I can click from one to one to one.

I like the quick mapping. I can put a customer in, and I can put the Auvik monitor in, and then probably within about half an hour to an hour, I can see most of the map. I have to tweak things here and there with the switches to get it to read correctly for credentials, but it is very quick. I can see the network pretty quickly.

There are a few things I would like to change about the interface, but in general, compared to a lot of other products, it is a little easier to use. It is a little hard sometimes to find MAC addresses and a couple of other things without getting a couple of clicks in, but in general, usability-wise, it is better than the ones we tried.

I would like more customizable alerts. I can put all the firewalls. I can put all the switches. However, especially with our firewalls, I would like to create an SNMP alert when there has been a change on the firewall, such as a rule change or a configuration change. We want to use it as a part of change management, but we cannot because we cannot get alerts. The alerts are basically whatever Auvik has. We cannot create or at least submit a ticket to get a customized alert, so we have to rely on our SIEM instead to do that alert. It took months. We had to get them to create it for us. That would be one thing I would like to see. There should be more customizable alerts or an easier and more accessible way to get customized alerts in some fashion. We really need those alerts. Otherwise, it mostly works for us.

It would also be nice to be able to customize some parts of the interface so that we have the information that is most important to us, and we could display that in some way.

Overall, there should be more customizability. It does what it does, but trying to change anything about it is a little difficult. We would save more time if we could put certain things on the front dashboard and are able to pull it up and go, "I want the switch and the firewall monitored on these ports." If I am trying to do some testing, I should be able to just put them there on Auvik and pin them instead of having to go to each one of them individually.

It has been about a year and a half.

It is definitely stable. We do not have too many crazy outages or anything like that. The platform is pretty stable. I would rate it a nine out of ten for stability.

It is pretty scalable. It could get a little dicey, but it is not on the Auvik's side. It depends on the implementation. I would rate it an eight out of ten for scalability.

We have ten people who work with Auvik. Our clients are mostly medium-sized organizations. We have about a dozen or so large enterprises, and we have about 300 medium-sized organizations and another 300 small-sized ones. 

I never had to call them. My colleague did call support to talk about the alerts. They did answer pretty quickly, and we were pretty quick to tell them no. They were helpful and quick the one time we called them. We do not really call them.

The documentation that they provide is pretty good. The deployment information is pretty detailed. They have the options for Linux, Windows, and even Unix. I do appreciate that. It is pretty good.

We used Domotz for a while, and we then switched to Auvik. We ran into similar problems, but the dashboard of Domotz was not as accessible as Auvik.

We also used Observium. It is an open-source one. Observium did everything we wanted to do, but it was way too in-depth. It is an actual open-source developer one, so it is not easily accessible to the average person. We used Observium for a brief period.

The time to value of Auvik is not very long. The platform is pretty quick. There are good instructions online. It was almost immediately.

I am pretty sure it is all on-prem. At least I have not deployed one that was in the cloud.

The deployment is pretty straightforward. It is super easy. The instructions online are usually pretty good. I do not have any problems with it. It is pretty easy and straightforward.

For small customers, it takes a couple of hours. For large customers, with ten switches and a couple of firewalls, it can take four or five hours. Auvik itself usually takes 20 minutes. If we have access to the server, we can just boot up Windows or Linux, and it is done.

In terms of maintenance, we do get alerts when the collectors go offline. Sometimes, they just fall out, and sometimes, the network does some weird things. There is a small amount of maintenance but nothing crazy.

We have definitely seen an ROI in terms of time to resolution and time to work on things. It has definitely shown value in that sense. It has saved us about half an hour on a ticket. We get about 30 tickets a year per client. That saves us 15 hours over the course of a year, which is 3,000 to 4,000 dollars.

Auvik allows us to spend less time on the setup and maintenance of the solution and issue resolution.

Relative to others, it is affordable. It is not terrible. The Performance licensing is a little expensive for what you get, but the standard licensing is fine.

Observium was free. It is open source, so you cannot beat that. It is open source, so it is free. 

Domotz is probably a little more expensive. I never got into that because that was a little bit before me. I used it a little bit but did not get into the pricing structure too much. It seems pretty comparable.

Technically, there are critical devices that are monitored by Auvik at no charge. We have to pay for servers. We have to pay for network devices and firewalls. We do have some PCs that we want to make sure do not go down. This free monitoring is nice. It does not add too much value. We want to see the workstations and where they are at. It would be weird to be charged for that.

It definitely does what it is supposed to do and what it is advertised to do. If people want to use it, it would be fine. For MSPs, it works great because the pricing structure is pretty good, but singular individual or giant enterprises would probably go with an in-house solution, such as Observium, for some of the alerting. In general, for MSPs, it is great. The pricing structure is great, and it is definitely usable.

Auvik has not empowered our entry-level technicians to solve more tickets on their own because we do not give it to our entry-level technicians. In our case, it is specifically for our network team. Our entry-level technicians do not handle any of the network. It is something we want to do with them, but as of now, our entry-level technicians do not use it.

Overall, I would rate Auvik Network Management an eight out of ten. Customizable alerts would be good. It would also be nice to be able to customize some parts of the interface. There should be more customizability. 

Auvik is primarily for monitoring network devices to see which ones have gone down. Another use case is tracking bandwidth utilization on the interfaces.

Auvik has improved visibility across our entire network. We don't want to wait until a user calls to tell us a switch is down. Auvik enables us to be proactive, not reactive. We realized the benefits almost instantaneously. 

The solution speeds up our resolution time. When we're troubleshooting, it's easier to see if a device is down or the utilization is too high. That is helpful. It makes the whole process faster. If I didn't have this solution, I would only see whether the network was up or down. 

I couldn't, for example, see that the bandwidth utilization is 100 percent. Auvik sends notifications when the bandwidth utilization passes 80-85 percent. We get an alert telling us that it's something we should look into. Otherwise, I would need to rely on customers and application owners complaining that sessions are dropping. 

I appreciate Auvik's traffic insights. The network map provides solid visibility in real time.

Some things about the interface were a little hard to set up, and it was difficult to figure out where to find information. The Auvik team did a great job helping us get started. If I had to figure it out by myself, I would have probably gotten frustrated. You need to go on the device first to enable it. If you don't, then traffic insights won't start working. It's pretty intuitive for most stuff, but some things are tricky if you don't have someone tell you how it works. 

I have used Auvik for roughly a year.

I rate Auvik eight out of 10 overall. 

Auvik is easy to scale. It covers thousands of servers. 

I rate Auvik support nine out of 10. I can't complain. They solved my problem quickly. 

Positive

Setting up Auvik was pretty easy. It was a little tricky to get some of the things set up correctly and working, but it was fairly straightforward overall. Deployment took about a month or two because we have more than a thousand locations.

We did it in-house with Auvik's help. They assigned a team to us, and they did a great job. When we had questions or issues and needed help, they assisted us almost immediately. Four departments were involved. After deployment, Auvik doesn't require much maintenance on our end unless there are significant changes to our environment. 

My boss makes the purchasing decisions, but we're happy with Auvik's overall pricing. We had some issues with the licensing. You need to pay for premium to use NetFlow, and we had a problem with them counting the same device multiple times for licensing purposes. It was a little frustrating because the Auvik database in the background didn't see it as a single device even though it came from the same critical hardware and only had one serial number. However, it was in different groups, so it was counted two or three times. It took a while to work with the accounting team to get that sorted.

We looked at a few different solutions. We went with Auvik because it was the best fit for our requirements, security standards, and budget. The security department didn't approve some of the alternatives.

I rate Auvik eight out of 10 overall. We had a few hiccups here and there that we couldn't fix easily without help. With Auvik's assistance, we got everything fixed. 

Auvik is our primary network management tool. We utilize it to ensure all systems and remote sites are seamlessly connected to our central office. While its core function is network management, we leverage its capabilities for deep-dive technical analysis when needed.

In our setup, Auvik itself is deployed in the cloud. I'm not sure if they have a hybrid or on-premises option available. However, we do require a collector, which is a virtual server we own. This server stores data that Auvik accesses for network management and discovery. If the collector goes down, Auvik won't be able to report any information to the cloud. Although I manage everything through the cloud interface, I never need to log into the collector itself.

The UI can be easily navigated by new users. 

Auvik offers a network map for improved visibility. However, I'm unsure if our current setup allows us to take full advantage of this feature. While I can access the map, it sometimes displays inaccurate connections, with devices either incorrectly shown as connected or missing entirely. While my initial suspicion is a fault on our end, I believe the overall concept of the map is good and has potential.

Using the network map is easy. Auvik has a helpful key that explains what each line represents and what different devices look like on the map.

The network map provides full visibility without the need for other tools.

Auvik helps decrease our Mean Time to Resolution and allows us to spend less time on setup and issue resolution.

I like how Auvik gives us a quick overview of the overall situation. With a glance at the main page, we can see the most utilized sites, the overall bandwidth usage, and even identify the top bandwidth consumers. The color-coded map with green for online and red for offline sites is an intuitive way to get a high-level picture at a glance.

I requested that Auvik implement an alarm system to notify me immediately of any disruptions or anomalies. While email alerts are currently in place, I believe audible notifications would be more effective in attracting my attention.

I appreciate the notification that they're addressing the recent service outage. While I understand being kept informed, multiple emails for every impacted device seem excessive. It would be ideal if notifications were consolidated into a single update once the issue is resolved. Hopefully, they'll have it fixed soon.

I have been using Auvik for one and a half years.

Overall, I'd rate Auvik's stability a solid nine out of ten. While occasional downtime is inevitable, they're smart about scheduling it for minimal impact - typically early Saturday mornings when most users are offline. Of course, like any technology, unforeseen issues can arise, but these are rare and Auvik keeps users well-informed throughout any downtime occurrences. Infrequent hiccups aside, Auvik has proven remarkably reliable.

Auvik is very flexible and can scale to anything we have.

The technical support has been able to resolve all our issues promptly.

Positive

Previously, I used SolarWinds, which worked reasonably well. However, after experiencing a security breach, I decided to move on due to concerns about continued vulnerabilities. Although SolarWinds may have taken corrective measures since then, I opted for Auvik. My primary driver for this change was the map functionality. While SolarWinds displayed individual sites and color-coded lines depicting connectivity, highlighting downed circuits with red, Auvik's map features are tied to external providers like Leaflet or OpenStreetMap. This limits customization, preventing me from using my background image and manually connecting elements. While longitude and latitude coordinates are available, I find this approach less intuitive for my needs and potentially confusing for the general user base. Additionally, SolarWinds' technical support proved unhelpful after the breach, refusing to assist with resolving issues related to device recognition. This lack of support contrasted starkly with Auvik's customer service, which readily helped me ensure all my devices communicated seamlessly with the platform. The responsive customer service led me to switch to Auvik.

The initial deployment with Auvik's support was straightforward. They provided clear guidance and assistance to get our systems up and running. While we assumed ownership gradually after mastering the basics, Auvik stayed readily available for ongoing support. Whenever we encountered hurdles during implementation, their tech team promptly cleared the roadblocks. To finalize the process, Auvik conducted a comprehensive review, ensuring everything functions flawlessly. The smooth deployment took a month with moderate effort, and it could have been significantly faster if needed. Me and my system admin completed the deployment.

The implementation was completed in-house with the help of an Auvik technician.

The initial offer was high, but I was able to negotiate it down. The final price is quite competitive compared to other options. Auvik offers a robust feature set that can be further expanded with add-ons. I'm particularly interested in their inventory asset program, which appeals to me because it conveniently bundles all the software we need. While I'm leaning towards adding it eventually, additional funding would be necessary. Furthermore, Auvik offers an optional "Traffic Insights" add-on that provides comprehensive data on all connected devices. It's important to note that these add-ons come at an additional cost on top of the basic Auvik license.

I would rate Auvik a nine out of ten.

Network management can be a bit of a plunge. We dive in, test the waters, and then see if it works for us. We didn't fully grasp the benefits of Auvik until we had it up and running for about six months to truly understand its impact. One thing I've noticed in the past year or two since we adopted Auvik, is that they were initially rough around the edges on some things. But they've stepped up their game since then. Their upcoming release sounds particularly promising, especially for remote desktop functionality. We currently use other software for that, but Auvik's new feature will allow us to do it directly within their platform, which I'm excited about.

We were able to get Auvik up and running and see the value quicker than we did for SolarWinds.

Maintenance is occasionally necessary. If we add or remove devices, adjustments are required to ensure proper system recognition. However, when no changes are made, the system functions autonomously daily.

To avoid initial frustration, it's crucial to ensure proper device accountability and the ability to identify elements like SNMP. Verify everything is running as expected. Auvik's lack of visibility might stem from our recent router replacements and mass equipment installation within the past six months. It's important to remember that if our configuration isn't accurate, Auvik is not at fault. Therefore, having everything properly set up beforehand would be the best approach.

We use Auvik for networking and security-related purposes.

We implemented Auvik because we wanted to have mapping based on different physical locations, especially for remote locations. For us to be able to track the traffic properly in and out of both of those environments.

Auvik is cloud-based with an on-premises collector.

Auvik provides a user-friendly intuitive interface. It makes things a lot easier to see on the front end. The troubleshooting aspect of finding devices within the network is so easy to navigate.

Auvik's network map along with its dashboard provides us with a real-time picture of our network.

Using the network map and dashboard to gain real-time visibility into the network is easy.

The network map dashboard grants us complete visibility, which is of paramount importance to our operations.

Auvik promptly notifies us of downed devices, enabling our help desk support to swiftly troubleshoot and address issues.

Auvik has empowered our entry-level technicians to resolve more tickets independently. This has eliminated some of the lower-priority alerts and freed up the time of our senior technicians within the helpdesk, allowing them to focus on project work.

It has enabled us to reduce our mean time to resolution by at least 20 percent, thanks to the additional information it provides.

Auvik provides complimentary monitoring of our critical devices, which is essential to our organization's operations.

It allows us to spend less time on setup, maintenance, and time resolution. This has enabled our help desk to look at more tickets and resolve more issues.

I find the mapping topology, traffic insights, and reporting to be the most valuable features that Auvik offers.

The pricing always has room for improvement.

We also use SolarWinds but it is not our primary solution. Auvik is by far a better product compared to what SolarWinds can offer.

The initial deployment was straightforward. The process was simple and we had one meeting before being able to deploy Auvik. Four to Five people were involved in the deployment.

We have seen upwards of a 35 percent return on investment with Auvik.

Auvik is a cost-efficient solution for the applications we use it for.

I would rate Auvik nine out of ten.

I have thoroughly reviewed Auvik's offerings and find them to be comprehensive and well-designed.

We have a physical presence in various locations, including computers, endpoints, and users. Auvik is deployed in approximately 30 to 40 of these physical locations. We have 3,200 endpoints and 2,300 users.

Auvik does not require any maintenance.

I would do a proof of concept for people just to see if Auvik does fit their organization. If they're looking for just a networking tool for monitoring, I would recommend Auvik 100 percent.
