Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It's a simple, functional solution."
"An excellent dashboard that is currently unique in covering both SD-WAN and SD-LAN with built-in security."
"We like how Meraki Dashboard lets you manage all the devices in a single pane of glass. The dashboard is intuitive and easy to use. They are constantly updating the functionality. Switches from other vendors have the same features for the life of the device, but Meraki is always improving."
"The initial setup process is quite simple."
"What I found most valuable in the Meraki Dashboard is straight monitoring of the different devices, as well as the ability to easily set up VPNs, for example, both Meraki client VPNs and non-Meraki VPNs for different organizations that work with my company. I also like that the tool is a really good firewall."
"The hardware of Meraki is very good quality."
"There are some whitelist blacklist capabilities in the MX dashboard, which is very helpful."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."
"The most valuable feature is alerting."
"We are a smaller enterprise, but we're watching approximately fifteen-thousand switchboards with no problem at all."
"This solution has helped us to proactively identify issues and push some of those fixes down to tier one."
"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."
"It also allows us to predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."
"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 important for us is how fast this solution is, as well as the granularity that you can get to, such as per-minute statistics."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The initial setup is complex and can be made more straightforward."
"We would like to be able to test the health of WAN connections."
"They could offer API functionality for Meraki Dashboard. It will help us develop software immediately using available solutions."
"Something that needs to be improved, is the fact that you if you don't renew the subscription license, it stops working. I would also like to see SSL BPM support for anything else."
"More integration would be an improvement."
"Lacks an alert notification when there are IP or DNS issues."
"Some features could be added."
"There are some issues with the NAT configuration, it is now impossible to some operations with the solution."
"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"Configuration management: In configuration management it would be helpful if it would backup configuration files (running and start-up configuration) for devices. (Not sure if this is already available in the latest version)."
"Detailed data can be hard to extract in CSV form. Sometimes, being able to dump down raw data would be good so various time periods across a longer period could be analysed. At present, data can be presented within Statseeker, but there is lots of "white space" between data points."
"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."
"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."
"The user interface needs to be made more intuitive."
"The main issue I've seen, in the last six months to a year, is when I upgrade I seem to be hitting bugs. The upgrade won't go smoothly and I have to engage support. These things happen when you upgrade, it's not the end of the world, but from a stability point of view, the only time I've so far, is during upgrades."
