A user-friendly solution that is easy to install and improves visibility

I would like to see improvements made to the user guide. From my personal experience, it is helpful to see a list of steps describing what to do next in different situations. An example is what to do and what to back up in the case of certain types of failure. There are also cases where a customer can't understand specific features. Enhancements to the user guide would be helpful for this. More features for network fragmentation would be helpful.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices

One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the valuable features is the packet decoding."

"vSTREAM gives us better visibility and reporting about our network infrastructure, allowing for cost-optimization."

"The generation of KPI-like information that feeds to the nGeniusONE (management) server is the most valuable feature."

"vSTREAM gives us better visibility and reporting about our network infrastructure, allowing for cost-optimization."

"Sometimes it took a month to troubleshoot something that we can now do within days."

"Support is fantastic and Statseeker are always looking to improve."

"We are now able to easily track where problems are with bandwidth and port errors, rather than having to do a lot of diagnostics."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is the simplicity of adding new devices into it."

"If somebody is complaining about slow networking then this solution allows us to see various ports to find out whether they are being overloaded."

"I believe Statseeker has reduced the complexity of our network monitoring, providing real-time alerts and on-demand graphs that improve our network availability."

"In terms of network visibility, Statseeker can be very granular. We can tell it exactly where we want it to go and where we want it to check, or it can do an SNMP walk and find out where everything is. It's very detailed."

"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."

"We have used this product since the organization was established and it has been an integral part of our business as usual functions and I would suggest that if we stopped using it then this would have a negative impact on our operations."

More Statseeker pros

Cons

"Room for improvement exists in filtering in the packet decode."

"I would say that this is not a scalable solution."

"The stability is okay, but sometimes we see that the memory on the server is not 100 percent correct and we need to stop and start the software to have it reallocated again."

"I would like for it to have a smaller footprint of the virtual appliance and better performance."

"I would like to see improvements made to the user guide."

"I would like for it to have a smaller footprint of the virtual appliance and better performance."

"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."

"This solution would be improved with better automatic discovery for ping-only devices."

"However, the bells and whistles that other vendors have will need to be provided or enhanced in Statseeker in order for it to compete."

"The inclusion of configuration management features and SIP links would improve this solution."

"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."

"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."

"It may be helpful to have more options in the alerting section."

"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is quite expensive."

"We now feel the pricing is a good value. Previously we had a just a normal license but now we've got an Enterprise license. Since the Enterprise, it's been a lot better value. We did think it was pretty expensive before, but with the Enterprise license it's almost less than half that price. If you have a number of accounts within the organization that use Statseeker, I would suggest get the Enterprise license."

"We pay a yearly maintenance fee of approximately $40,000 USD."

"It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."

"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."

"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."

"The licensing cost is yearly and it's $5,000 to $8,000, I think."

"The yearly cost varies as per the number of devices being monitored. The cost for 25,000 devices is about $4500."

"One thing that needs improvement is how it's licensed. I understand historically the company licensed it off a same charge for everyone. I understand the company needs to make money, but how they introduced the tiered licensing model, and then multiple layers of licensing was a bit of an issue. So, on the whole, coming up with a licensing model that isn't confusing and complicated and is easy to understand would be one way to improve the product. They have told me lately that they're changing how they license stuff, but they haven't made that - as I understand it - in their marketing material public knowledge as of yet. I would say that at the moment it's a bit convoluted. It's confusing. Some of their basic licensing model is a bit of a ripoff. If you go over five or ten support calls in the basic licensing model they start charging you for support calls. I think that's a bit rich."
