We performed a comparison between CA Application Delivery Analysis [EOL] and SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The pricing is relatively low compared to other solutions in this area. I'd go so far as to say it's even significantly less than the competition."
"The most valuable feature is the fault management monitoring."
"The program is scalable enough for our usage."
"I like that it is able to monitor multiple devices and it's vendor-agnostic."
"For stability, I would give SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer a rating of ten out of ten."
"What I like the most is the bandwidth assessment."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The performance analysis is a valuable feature. With the performance analyzer, we can see the realtime monitoring, the realtime performance, and historical performance on specific components like virtualization storage, CPU, servers and network equipment."
"The monitoring is perfect, showing you the details for the utilization of resources and network bandwidth."
"This solution gives us important information about the utilization of protocols, particularly in terms of how often they are used."
"The user interface needs improvement."
"My biggest complaint about ADA is that you have to rely on dedicated appliances."
"It's not a cheap product, so the pricing could be improved."
"They should work on the configuration of the Log Analyzer feature."
"If your network is on SolarWinds, and you notice that the traffic is bad because it says "user downloading a heavy file," it doesn't indicate which endpoint is downloading those heavy files. SolarWinds doesn't have the tools to be able to handle this kind of situation. You can just notice through your network device that the traffic is becoming overwhelming or heavy, but you cannot go inside and get more details related to the endpoint where it is happening. We would like SolarWinds to be able to handle this kind of situation and even manage the traffic inside a network from the endpoint to the network device. These would be good enhancements. It is mostly stable. The problem comes only when we want to add another SolarWinds model. SolarWinds has so many models, and sometimes when we want to add other models on the platforms that are reserved for our firm, it freezes. When this happens, we have to create a new VM for that model."
"It is a scalable solution, but it is costly to scale. Therefore, I would rate scalability at eight out of ten."
"NTA's documentation for the implementation phase needs some enhancement."
"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."
"There are some areas for improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer. There are some challenges with the solution when compared to other monitoring tools such as difficulty in operations and difficulty with backup installation. My team is currently trying out different solutions but would need to see how it goes."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence capabilities."
