Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring 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."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The algorithm is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The set up was very easy. We didn't have any problems with the setup. The deployment took less than an hour."
"There are a lot of options for customization of the dashboard, alerts, and reports."
"It is very extensible with 'SWQL' and APIs to where we are beginning to integrate it with network automation."
"SolarWinds NPM provides an overview of network monitoring, extending its capabilities to cover other aspects, such as virtual machines and servers. The platform has features like NetPath, which is particularly beneficial for end-users, offering insights into issues like latency, packet loss, and connectivity problems with routers, switches, or servers."
"One of the best features is the reports feature."
"The other valuable system is the DSS (decision support system). If there's a fault in the network, SolarWinds is basically capable of rectifying and resolving that problem on its own without any intervention from an IP assistant or administrator."
"The product is scalable."
"The nice thing about SolarWinds is that it's kind of all-in-one. I can manage the status of my networking devices, whether they are up or down, I can see how much traffic is going across an interface, and I can run a report that tells me exactly what that traffic is."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve by adding the deepest inspection, performance networking, and IP address discovery."
"The interface could be made more user-friendly."
"There isn't support available to us as they don't offer support in our country."
"Consolidation of platforms would provide a smoother experience."
"Sometimes there are issues when upgrading to a new version of the product."
"I would like to see integration with antivirus or other security endpoint solutions."
"GUI needs improvement with a more graphical dashboard."
"Each model has different features, so clients need to purchase a separate model for SQL monitoring, database monitoring, network traffic analyzer, HTTP traffic, etc. So each feature they need is in a different model, but customers would prefer an all-in-one solution."
