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."
"The installation is not that complex."
"The email notifications are helpful, and the dashboards are user-friendly for people with little network monitoring knowledge."
"PRTG Network Monitor's best features are its flexibility, ease of implementation, user-friendliness, and intuitive interfaces."
"Its proactiveness is its most valuable feature. We already know when we come in, in the morning, if a server or site is down, as opposed to someone telling us."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is being able to see things graphically."
"We have asked questions of their technical support and they have a very good response time."
"The up-to-date graphs and the history are very good."
"It is great for service level agreements and can comply fully with internet monitoring or any interface."
"We are a smaller enterprise, but we're watching approximately fifteen-thousand switchboards with no problem at all."
"Summary Reports provide a quick way to identify where potential issues are. Drill-downs provide more granular details very quickly."
"This solution allowed us to track down trouble users."
"The most valuable feature is alerting."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where you have everything right there on the screen."
"Whether it is a down network switch or a down router, we can get back online faster for the customers."
"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."
"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 Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The operations dashboard is only available in PRTG's enterprise version, but I wish it could be accessed in the standard licensing. It would also be nice if PRTG had templates for dashboard monitoring, software monitoring, etc. It can help me set up a dashboard because now we don't have a template from PRTG, so we need to create one from scratch."
"Sometimes, our PRTG Network Monitor system crashes and a lot of sensors go down."
"There seems to be a big jump from the basic scan to the really thorough scan. There is a big jump in the quantity of sensors it uses for certain things. One minute you might get ten and then the next you get 200. There seems to be a big jump between the two at times."
"We need something that is more predictive. We would prefer if it wasn't a solution that was corrective and instead offered predictive insights so that we can handle problems before they even occur."
"Users need to buy the more expensive licenses if they expect to be able to scale."
"I would like to see network mapping."
"While the desktop app is good, they could slightly improve it. We would like it to be a single pane of glass. At the moment, you can only see certain portions of information. You have to scroll through to make it more granular. We want them to develop the desktop app to be more user-friendly."
"We would like to monitor certain aspects of the user experience. We should be able to analyze the cause of end user experience, bad or good, so we can do some research and development on our own."
"The inclusion of configuration management features and SIP links would improve this solution."
"That user interface for selecting things needs to be a little more intuitive."
"If it had more detailed NetFlow information then it would be far better."
"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."
"I would like the ability to update the dashboard. I would also like the ability to access via an API. Then I could produce a dashboard that my C level can understand. This is just so they can go and refresh whenever they want to and see what things look like."
"More private MIB object support, such as WAN optimisation performance and wireless, would be helpful."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."
"It would be nice if I could easily select individual interfaces."
