Good end-to-end voice quality monitoring and offers valuable features

The solution should have automatic baseline detection. On the per hour, per base, per week. That's usually the best. And on a per individual CI level. I know that they're working on it and when that's available then we will definitely implement it because it will reduce the effort we need to maintain all the products. Right now we have to set thresholds for every location, and it needs to be actually dynamic so if we have better thresholding, we'll have faster alarms across all our locations. We won't have to expend effort on it by resetting or checking them on a regular basis.

Simplifies monitoring and provides real-time alerts for issues we might not immediately be aware of otherwise

The product has improved our organization by simplifying monitoring and giving real-time alerts for issues we might not immediately be aware of otherwise. If we notice five devices with latency or errors, I wouldn't know that if I didn't command line into 800 devices and check every day. I can see the status on the dashboard and it just makes it easy to know where the problems are. If we didn't have that capability by using Statseeker, then it would be very complex to monitor. We'd need to have another tool or manually log into every device to try to check things. And this product just does it all for us. That streamlines and improves our workload so that we only need to have two people in our office for the network team. It improves availability. If a circuit goes down texts and email alerts get sent out. So, even if it's in the evening or we're not on premises, we'll know if something's down. We use it all the time because it really helps.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We use the solution to meet the needs of the customer."

"Good end-to-end monitoring"

"The most important for us is how fast this solution is, as well as the granularity that you can get to, such as per-minute statistics."

"Statseeker helps to quickly see if you have a spike or something going on. In the future, we need to get NetFlow in the tool so we can see what the IP is."

"The solution reduces the complexity of our network monitoring because it can make my engineers do their jobs faster. The solution also reduces troubleshooting time for network administrators to pinpoint issues quicker."

"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where you have everything right there on the screen."

"This solution allowed us to track down trouble users."

"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."

"Device grouping is very easy, and you can discover thousands of devices in a few minutes."

"We were having some issues with a certain site, and it was only Statseeker that showed us what the problem was."

More Statseeker pros

Cons

"All the features and functions of the solution can be improved."

"The solution should have automatic baseline detection."

"If it had more detailed NetFlow information then it would be far better."

"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."

"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."

"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."

"It doesn't do absolutely everything and it will require some additional software or hardware support to be a complete single solution."

"More private MIB object support, such as WAN optimisation performance and wireless, would be helpful."

"It would be nice if they had twenty-four-hour technical support because we contact Australia and we have to wait for them to open."

"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."

More Statseeker cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."

"This tool would probably be priced well if it had deeper NetFlow capabilities, but for our use case, in particular, we're only recovering ports after ninety days and looking at circuit congestion, it's pretty pricey."

"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."

"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."

"It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."

"Up until we actually talked to Statseeker, and Statseeker came and gave us an enterprise licensing model for multiple accounts, I would have said the pricing was not good value. The fact they've come to the party now and given us a very good discount, I would say it's probably about right, the pricing they're giving us now. But the retail pricing, if I went out and, as a separate company, and asked for pricing for one account, I probably would say their retail pricing is not competitive. The fact that they've given us a discount now because we have multiple servers across multiple accounts, I would say that pricing is about right, but not their retail pricing. It's too expensive."

"We now feel the pricing is a good value. Previously we had a just a normal license but now we've got an Enterprise license. Since the Enterprise, it's been a lot better value. We did think it was pretty expensive before, but with the Enterprise license it's almost less than half that price. If you have a number of accounts within the organization that use Statseeker, I would suggest get the Enterprise license."

"The yearly cost varies as per the number of devices being monitored. The cost for 25,000 devices is about $4500."
