I use the tool for network performance monitoring or NPM of WAN connectivity. In the past year and a half, I have started to use my enterprise LAN with the tool. The product is basically used for link and node monitoring as well as for utilization purposes.

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.
Our company uses the solution to monitor all network connectivity throughout the country and provides results to our client's stakeholders. We have a network topology that establishes a certain set of macros and frameworks throughout our entire organization. There are 6,000 interfaces that are monitored 24/7/365. The nodes are very sensitive and each has its own service. If a node goes down, we recover it immediately.
Before cementing it into the production environment, we used to test it in a UAC environment - part of which we are using like the NPM. We're using it when we want to monitor certain things. The NPM display perfectly shows the information we need, especially in the threshold configuration. We have a threshold window as well. For example, if memory goes from 50% to 70%, we can set a threshold to get notified.

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.
We use SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for monitoring and managing IPs. Additionally, we have the IPAM, IP administrator management on SolarWinds, which monitors all the devices and CIs for the servers and network.
We use SolarWinds Network Device Monitor to closely monitor links. When we use SolarWinds, we conduct a lot of proof-of-concept work, and occasionally we require specific data. We'll set up a trial enrollment at that time and collect the data.

In my line of work, I am responsible for the remote monitoring of sensors, such as temperature sensors and various others, for customers in the industrial sector. Along with sensor monitoring, we also deal with PLC technology and MIDS as they pertain to industrial equipment such as pumps and electrical equipment. I use SolarWinds Network Device Monitor for monitoring the equipment remotely over the internet such as via LTE. To be clear, we only use it for monitoring the switching and routing of the network devices. For similar types of monitoring, but more to do with PLCs and the MIDS, we also utilize a solution called PRTG.

We use this solution for network monitoring, SNMP, WMI, queries against services, and occasionally for certain devices that have stopped, we would restart services.
Network Device Monitor is a free tool that makes it easy to monitor the real-time performance and health of a single device on your network with a desktop dashboard that alerts you when your device is in trouble.
