Solar Winds for Exchange
What do you like best about the product?
Lots of customizations and includes support for DAG monitoring for Exchange environments. Important information and alerts are pre-configured. Synthetic monitoring gives you the chance to catch issues before they arise. Combined with the SolarWinds Orion suite, you can use this tool to monitor every performance aspect of your IT infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even with all the customizations, a lot false alerts are created. We have worked with Solorwind engineers and we have not be able to create rules to limit our false positives alerting. This in return has generated about 10000 extra emails to our admin accounts. While the tool gives us what we need, it also produces way too much noise. This has cause our team to create a lot of email rules to filter out what is needed and auto delete of alerts. In return, we get the alerts we need but with too many alerts. The dashboard is ok, but needs improvement.
Support for third party cert is needed.
