We performed a comparison between eG Enterprise and Nmap based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"The algorithm is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The scanning procedure includes UDP ports which sets it apart from competitors."
"The most important function, according to me, is the capability to use some arguments in the scanning. The solution's capability to go figure and do a deep dive, discovering information on specific aspects."
"Nmap is easy to use. It's a command-line interface, and the output is quite good."
"It is a very user-friendly product."
"The initial setup was simple."
"It helps us secure the network infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature of the solution for security audits stems from the fact that it serves as a powerful tool with the ability to scan a large number of ports."
"Nmap's performance is great, and I've never noticed any issues in this respect. It really doesn't put a heavy load on the machine when using it."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"The integration must be improved."
"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"Nmap major operates through the CLI; there's no GUI component, and that's where the challenge is."
"There are concerns with the stability of the product, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The tool's license limits the number of scans it can perform. Improving the license model could benefit customers by allowing more scans for compliance and other purposes."
"The solution's initial setup could be better."
"The challenge often lies in finding suitable courses and professional resources."
"There is room for improvement in the design, the GUI. It looks a bit odd. Maybe Nmap should improve it or add more widgets to make it more attractive, but the basic functionality is good and provides what we need."
"There could be a specific option to check non-pingable endpoints for the product."
"One of the drawbacks of the standard Nmap utility is that it does not come with a graphical user interface, unlike a number of other open-source alternatives such as Zenmap."
