    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

    Usage instructions

    Prerequisites

    1. Manually create a key pair using the AWS Management Console to be able to connect to your AWS EC2 instance running Hybrid Cloud Observability.
    2. Create a new VPC using the AWS Management Console. If a new VPC has already been created, select the created one.

    Please select the EC2/RDS size according to your requirements. Please follow the instructions at the following link: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-orion-requirements-sw1916.htm

    2. Manually log in to the AWS EC2 instance via a Microsoft Windows RDP connection (using your key pair to decrypt your Windows OS Administrator password) and launch the Hybrid Cloud Observability Web Console from the start menu.

    What do you like best about the product?
    SolarWinds Hybrid Cloud Observability (HCO) is like a stop for IT engineers for keeping an eye on everything on environment (like server, backup, storage, network, AP, Sensors, UPS etc) setup—either platform is running on-prem, in the cloud, or somewhere in between. Solarwinds pulls together monitoring for networks, infrastructure, apps, and cloud services into one easy-to-use and manage dashboards. We are currently managing 35K + devices and components under a single monitoring roof. It's becomes way simpler because of flexible licensing and smart alerts, it saves time and cuts down on admin work. If someone doesn't have hand-on experience on scripts and languages then he can easily use the manually features (like alert creation, report, any modification). HCO completely transformation and gives better visibility, on license, issues and keep things running smoothly.

    *here is a limitation from the tool that Dell does not expose much volume information over WMI hence we are unable to monitor the disk operations on the dell servers.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    * Flexible deployment options—on-premises, cloud, or hybrid
    * Flexible Licensing (Combines multiple modules like Network Performance Monitor (NPM), Server & Application Monitor (SAM), Log Analyzer, IP Address Manager (IPAM), and more into a single platform)

    All-in-One Monitoring Made Easy with SolarWinds

    What do you like best about the product?
    What I like best about SolarWinds Observability is the unified view it offers across infrastructure, applications, and logs — all from a single dashboard. It's incredibly helpful to correlate metrics, traces, and logs for root cause analysis, especially in hybrid environments. The customizable dashboards are intuitive, and the AIOps features help reduce alert noise, making it easier to focus on real issues. It's a huge time-saver for monitoring complex systems.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The initial setup and configuration can be overwhelming, especially for teams new to observability tools. Some documentation is outdated or unclear, and onboarding large environments requires time and effort. Also, pricing can escalate quickly as more nodes or features are added. Lastly, customer support response times could be improved.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We use SolarWinds Observability to monitor app performance and server health. It helps us trace bottlenecks in code, monitor infrastructure metrics, and reduce troubleshooting time by correlating everything in one place.

    Effective Network Visibility and Web Performance Insights with SolarWinds

    Reviewed on Jul 03, 2025
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    We've been using SolarWinds NPM and WPM extensively, and the experience has been genuinely positive. The visibility that NPM provides into our network infrastructure has helped us proactively address performance bottlenecks before they impact users. Real-time monitoring, intuitive dashboards, and intelligent alerts make day-to-day operations much more manageable.

    WPM, on the other hand, has been incredibly valuable for monitoring our critical internal and external web applications. Being able to simulate user interactions and catch slow load times or page failures before end users report them has improved our service reliability and user satisfaction.

    Overall, SolarWinds has helped us move from reactive to proactive monitoring. The integration between modules, ease of customization, and the depth of insights we get have made a noticeable difference in how we manage our environment.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The user interface, while functional, could use a more modern and responsive design. Some views feel cluttered and less intuitive compared to newer platforms.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Web URL responses and performance monitoring is effective and we are planning to move web monitoring from other tools
