Network Engineer at Inniti Network Solution

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

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

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

"The graphics and trends are the most valuable for us."

"Grouping, Threshold/alerts, Netflow analyser, Private MIB object support are most valuable as they can provide more visibility into network performance, and for network troubleshooting."

"This solution allowed us to track down trouble users."

"The monitoring provided by this solution helps us to track down and solve issues."

"Device grouping is very easy, and you can discover thousands of devices in a few minutes."

"It also allows us to predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."

"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."

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

More Statseeker pros

Cons

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

"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."

"There is a little bit of room to improve in the alerting section to give some more options there. It's all I can think of right now off the top of my head."

"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)."

"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."

"With Statseeker I'd like to see some flow, i.e. what's tuning-up the network. The trend I like is managing the traffic load by going to the cloud."

"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."

"It would be nice if they had twenty-four-hour technical support because we contact Australia and we have to wait for them to open."

"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."

"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."

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

"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."

"Up until we actually talked to Statseeker, and Statseeker came and gave us an enterprise licensing model for multiple accounts, I would have said the pricing was not good value. The fact they've come to the party now and given us a very good discount, I would say it's probably about right, the pricing they're giving us now. But the retail pricing, if I went out and, as a separate company, and asked for pricing for one account, I probably would say their retail pricing is not competitive. The fact that they've given us a discount now because we have multiple servers across multiple accounts, I would say that pricing is about right, but not their retail pricing. It's too expensive."

"It's probably $5K a year for the license."

"We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year."

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

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