A must for Network Administrators
What do you like best about the product?
We use it mostly for alerts. We get an email every time a device is down or comes back up. We also use the Maps function to display the network on TV's. We also monitor interfaces on deices and services on servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
As far as Meraki integration, you could only the cloud status. It looks like if I want more information to monitor on those devices, I will need help from support or extra help to monitor the health and interfaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alerting when devices go down is the most critical piece for us. Instead of waiting for the following morning, i can address the problem right away. Our up time is near 100 percent due to this.

PRTG is the network monitoring tool which we can use for monitor our devices
What do you like best about the product?
PRTG Maps, PRTG reports and PRTG notification system is the best features I mostly like here.

Nothing special. One thing is the sound notification system only works for the desktop application. If it can expand other systems, it would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly I solved the networking devices monitoring related problems, for example device monitoring sensors adding, report generating, visualizing the IT infrastructure on PRTG maps.
Great Network Monitoring System
