SolarWinds Network Device Monitor Reviews

We primarily use SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for monitoring and configuration management. It also has other features like IP address allocation and IP address management.

The most valuable feature of SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is monitoring.

SolarWinds Network Device Monitor lacks the granularity of other monitoring tools like LiveNX. We don't get much visibility or specifics about the traffic that passes through an interface that SolarWinds Network Device Monitor monitors.

I have been using SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for more than five years.

SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is a stable product, but its stability depends on how you use it. We have several SolarWinds servers, but one of the servers we use is being overloaded in terms of the device it manages. So, it has started to present some problems in terms of availability.

More than 100 users are using the solution in our organization.

SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is not an expensive solution.

I would recommend SolarWinds Network Device Monitor to other users.

Overall, I rate SolarWinds Network Device Monitor a seven out of ten.

The solution is used primarily to monitor our network. In real-time, we know when if there's an issue on our network and it helps us to be proactive, to solve the situation.

The alerts we are getting when we start losing connection access have been helpful. If a device is starting to get, for example, a higher than normal level of activity or the CPU starts to increase there is an alert. The alert is the most beneficial for us.

The pricing isn't too bad. 

It's been stable. 

The way they are presenting the map of our devices needs to be improved.

The initial setup is complex. 

I've been using the solution for about three years. 

My impression of stability is mostly good, however, I'm open to seeing how it works and if it gives us acceptable performance for what we are doing. So far, we are impressed with that solution. That said, it can allow us to run more, and do more.

I can't speak to scalability. We haven't tried to scale.

Mostly, just engineers are on the solution. 

We have a person in-house that will bring issues to our attention, and if we need to, we will escalate to support.

The initial setup is a bit complex. It's not for anyone who is a beginner to work in the products to do it. It's a bit longer to start uploading the new nodes on the software.

I'd rate the solution a two out of five in terms of ease of use.

The deployment takes about 15 to 20 minutes. 

At most, we need five people to deploy and maintain the product.

We did not use a third party to help us set everything up. We handled the implementation in-house.

The pricing is okay. I would rate it a three out of five. 

We're just customers and end-users.

I'd advise potential new users that, before using the device, they need to prepare and get some training on the device before using it.

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten.

SolarWinds Network Device Monitor can be used to know that your devices are on, which switches are off, which ports are open, and which ports are not open.

The most valuable feature of SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is it can alert you when a device is not working.

I have been using SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for approximately two years.

SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is stable. However, the level of stability depends on the infrastructure.

The scalability of the SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is great. 

We might reduce usage to one person from two using this solution.

We have made a few calls to support. We have not encountered very many issues that would require support.

The initial setup of the SolarWinds Network Device Monitor could be easier. It took us approximately one month to complete the implementation.

We used integrators for the implementation of the SolarWinds Network Device Monitor.

The price of the SolarWinds Network Device Monitor is good.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate SolarWinds Network Device Monitor a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for monitoring switches, telephones, and Wi-Fi access points.

The product is useful for switches and IP phones.

The solution is not user-friendly.

I have been using the solution for three to four years.

The product is stable. I rate the tool’s stability an eight out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a nine out of ten. Five people in my organization are using the product. We have plans to increase the usage in the future.

I rate the ease of setup a ten out of ten.

The deployment takes a day. We need two people to deploy the solution.

The product is expensive.

We are using the latest version of the solution. I did not deploy the solution. I am monitoring it. I am not part of the procurement team. I would recommend the product to others because it is stable. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution as a network configuration manager. You can use it for device monitoring.

The solution is very user-friendly and very easy to use. 

The solution is simple to set up. The deployment process is quick. 

The security could always be improved. 

We would prefer if the support was faster in terms of response times. 

I've been dealing with the solution for nine years. It's been a while. I've had almost a decade of experience with it so far.

We have more than 100 users on the solution at this time. 

Technical support needs to respond to its customers faster. We are not 100% satisfied with the level of support we get. 

The initial setup is not overly complex. It's quick and easy. The deployment only takes a few hours. You only need one engineer for the deployment process. 

We're able to handle the implementation ourselves in-house. We don't need the help of integrators or consultants. 

We have a license that we pay for annually. 

We use both on-premises and cloud deployment models. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

I would recommend the solution to other users and organizations. 

We use this product to monitor our infrastructure, detect outages, and monitor performance.

This product proactively tells us about issues before the users notice.

From a monitoring perspective, the most valuable feature is that it can tell us exactly what the issue is.

Integration with different tools, such as ServiceNow and Excel, can be improved.

I would like to see improvements made to event correlation. 

We have been using SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for about five years.

This is a stable monitoring tool.

This is a scalable product.

We have about twenty technical people who normally work with it.

As long as I have been with the company, they have always had SolarWinds.

The initial setup is straightforward.

We have an in-house team responsible for maintenance.

My advice for anybody who is implementing this tool is to have a dedicated resource for it. It has to be maintained, and it takes time and resources to get the best out of it.

Overall, this is a good product. That said, no solution is perfect.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We use this product for network and server management. We were looking for something that can monitor the cloud workloads.

The most valuable feature is the cloud workload monitoring capability.

There is no mobile version of this product, and our team should be able to access it using a mobile device.

We have been using the SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for almost four years.

This product has been quite stable and we are very likely to continue using it in the future.

It is a scalable solution and we have about 70 people in the organization who use it.

The technical support is okay and I don't think that we've any a bad experience.

The initial setup was straightforward. It took between three and four months to complete the deployment.

Our in-house team implemented and deployed it. We have a three-member team and they are administrators.

There are licensing fees but the price is not very expensive.

This is a product that I can recommend.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.
