Cloud storage with no hardware needed and great comprehensive reports
The software is cloud-based, so I do not need to store any data locally. It is a fully software-based solution, eliminating the need for investment in hardware. We have the capability to create reports as needed. It is good software to use, as there were no incidents where I needed to contact technical support. Additionally, it is free software.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Centerity is much more than a monitoring tool — it’s a unified, end-to-end, enterprise-class and multi-tenanted AIOps Platform that is purpose-built to help MSPs and data-centers deliver the highest levels of up-time and performance."
"The Centerity gives us exactly what we need from performance system monitoring."
"The machine learning feature is valuable."
"Customer Service: Over 10/10 as the user network is incredibly active."
"The solution can find all asset details automatically, whether it's a Mac address, computer name, IP address, models, etc. It's very helpful."
"The solution can find all asset details automatically, whether it's a Mac address, computer name, IP address, models, etc. It's very helpful."
"Considering this is AdWare this is a very good product with all the right tools for a medium sized IT department."
"This product is definitely a great start for a ticketing system at an organization, particular for small to medium size teams."
"Spiceworks offered everything we needed and more, and has improved response times to staff as well as providing an audit trail and growing database of information that can be referenced when similar problems arise."
"We have taken this from a central location and expanded our reach over 8 different companies with around 1000 devices all reporting to one location, and I have had no issues and do not foresee any as we continue to expand and install SpiceWorks at our remaining customers."
"Spiceworks gives you a very good but basic help desk platform that is easy to implement and use."
 

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"One of the major improvements should be it implementation as a SaaS"
"The GUI must be improved. Graphs must be changed including high level maps"
"It would be nice to connect multi Spiceworks servers together to get all of the information across different sites."
"I would like to see more information when drilling down into access permissions, assignments management, or tagging."
"The SNMP sniffer requires a lot of work to get right."
"Sometimes, it can be difficult to integrate what you need."
"They've also tried to integrate it with social logins, like Twitter and LinkedIn, and that type of login authentication has no place in a corporate application."
"Yes, too many. We tried it on a VM, but we had to reboot every 2 days."
"The network mapping could be improved. Putting together an actual bonafide network map would be really nice."
"I am unable to provide suggestions for improvement at this moment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
