"The stability is fantastic."
"I love the GUI. Almost everything is accessible through the web interface. It is very user-friendly. It is easy to drag and drop resources wherever you want them."
"The most important feature is reporting. The reports that are generated are useful and they save a lot of time with respect to monitoring."
"Being able to easily, and quickly obtain disc space statistics from servers and determine how much was free or used on various volumes."
"Their support team is efficient, and it is easy to set up."
"The connectivity of the solution is very good."
"The biggest thing for me is that it provided enough information for me to monitor. It alerts and provides you with the information you need."
"The ability to stop/pause and capture logs when something happens is the most valuable feature."
"Docker containers are completely supported, kind of like "first class citizens"."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve the graphics of the interface and more customized reporting."
"There should be a little bit more integration in some of the other tooling and utilizing the APIs of devices or tools could be a little bit better."
"An area for improvement in SolarWinds NPM is the short retention period. Currently, it's just for seven days of data, which is very low, making it hard for my organization to keep that data. SolarWinds recommended a seven-day retention period, but my organization needs a fourteen-day data retention period. Hence, I'd like an increase in the retention period or the database limit in SolarWinds NPM because you can't go back to the data for any investigation if seven days have passed. Another area for improvement in SolarWinds NPM is the database, which needs to be a bit more mature. I want a modified database in the next release of SolarWinds NPM. I'd also like more options added to groups because, currently, it's very limited."
"The scalability can be better."
"Application Performance Monitoring should be included in this solution."
"The dashboard of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"Currently lacks integration with SMS services."
"We decided that we were no longer going to trust that their products have not been capitalized."
"It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."
""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
