The platform is highly open in the market, providing robust APIs for seamless integration with other tools. Currently, we leverage these capabilities at a building site, incorporating IoT sensors to gather data. The collected data is stored in a centralized location, and we plan to use AI for analysis. This analysis will include insights on peak activity times, humidity levels, temperature variations, and other relevant metrics within the building."

"The price could be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license."
"The solution doesn't provide mail notifications currently."
"There are some technical issues that may require attention"
"Mist AI and Cloud should improve its integrations."
"Juniper should integrate all their dashboards instead of having separate dashboards...Since it lacks the integration of dashboards, Juniper needs to improve it."
"Configuration could be improved."
"The solution lacks documentation."
"The inter-functionality with other vendors was a negative for us."
"The solution does not offer much customization so is somewhat inflexible."
"We decided that we were no longer going to trust that their products have not been capitalized."
"I would like to see integration with antivirus or other security endpoint solutions."
"Consolidation of platforms would provide a smoother experience."
"It would be good to have high security."
"The SolarWinds notification and alerting configuration could be simplified as it would be easier to find if it was within the NPM web application instead of in a separate client application."
"SolarWinds could offer more support and insights for a broader range of devices. Currently, it focuses on routers, switches, and some load balancers. However, it lacks an out-of-the-box dashboard for monitoring firewalls and some other modern network security devices. We have to customize it a lot."
"If they’re going for a “cover everything” approach, then they need to do so and enable a bit more of the "cover everything approach" within every one of the tools."
