We performed a comparison between ScienceLogic and SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"Power packs."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"It is simple."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"What my organization likes best about SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is its easy deployment. It's also well-integrated in terms of monitoring because my organization also uses a SolarWinds solution for monitoring. You can connect SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer directly to that monitoring tool to get information. My organization also finds the default graphs that appear before the configuration in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer very useful."
"The bandwidth monitoring functionality is one of the most important features for our customers. When the customer notices that their bandwidth usage is too high for some reason, they will use the traffic analysis within SolarWinds NTA to identify which protocols (e.g. HTTPS) or applications are using up the bandwidth."
"What the network team found most valuable in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is that it helps them to troubleshoot or analyze the issue. For example, traffic that comes from our location: India, goes to the US, so for the network team to analyze where the traffic comes from and where it is directed, and whether the packets are being dropped, they use SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer. The network team also likes that through the solution, they can analyze the complete traffic utilization and how they're going to use it. SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is user-friendly. The team finds it comfortable to use."
"The integration with other SolarWinds products is good."
"It doesn't cost too much."
"SolarWinds has improved our organization because whenever a device is down, we get an alert."
"They have instructional videos and other information available on the site to assist you with learning it."
"I would rate NetFlow Traffic Analyzer's stability ten out of ten."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"It can be complex to set up and configure."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence capabilities."
"What needs improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is performance because sometimes, my team struggles too much for the solution to perform correctly for a specific deployment in my organization. Having a more detailed view in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is another area for improvement, but that's more part of the protocol than the actual solution."
"It is very slow to pick the dynamics of the network."
"Technical support could be improved with quicker response times."
"NTA's documentation for the implementation phase needs some enhancement."
"The Atlas module that is used for building the network map is very bad."
"It does not flow. It cannot do our metric performance monitoring. So it is very limited. They can do it but in a very limited fashion. It is only good for SNMP-based alerts."
