Solarwinds IPAM for Effectively Managing Subnets on Your Network

  • September 08, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A few of the best features of Solariwnds IPAM solution are;
1. You can sort the subnets in a specific hierarchy under separate folders. It provides you great convenience in managing these subnets.
2. You can understand which IP idle which IP is used in which subnet with yellow and green warnings. This gives you an important advantage over Core networks where DHCP is not used, in order to avoid an IP conflict.
What do you dislike about the product?
Solarwinds' biggest problem in general is that it is very slow. Sometimes you may have to wait 1-2 minutes before opening a new page. I think this slowness is due to the fact that it is an application running on a windows server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Solawrinds' IPAM solution to manage our core network and monitor the IPs of central servers. With IPAM, we can easily track which IPs the servers have, which subnets are available for assignment or expansion, which addresses can be deprecated or recycled. To find out if an IP is idle before, we was lookig at the ARP table on the Core switch and then ping it. We was spending lot of effort formerly for this process. But with IPAM, everything is now within our reach.

Secondly, your internet plays an important role in making this application a successful tool so, try to use the high speed of the internet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SolarWinds helps to detect the multi- clients, monitoring network within the system, and provide the way to watch deeply for any business options. Our company uses this application for better troubleshooting the net path so, this is an easy and flexible application for our system. This application is altogether a good source of communication to the internal or external system. Therefore, we can earn more earnings and more development by establishing the novel ways of communication that do its function not to discover the detail from outside but, also an insightful observation is also praiseworthy.

Amazing product that has saved me countless hours of manual configuration

  • May 29, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
NCM includes baseline checks that allow me to make sure that all new switch/router configs meet at least a baseline level of security configuration. This allows me to provide just a quick baseline check to our yearly auditors instead of lines and lines of code proving we have met guidelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Last time I tried to use the firmware upgrade feature it could not handle firmware larger than 100mb, this is almost all cisco firmware at this point, so I had to manually update. To be fair I have not tried in the latest hotfix patch.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The best problem we have been able to mitigate it auditor compliance. Solarwinds has built into NCM audit checks for HIPPA,NIST, PCI, SOX and more out of the box. They also allow you to build your own compliance reports for your industry. Again, this has saved countless hours during audits.

Insight Into Our Devices That We Didn't Have Before

  • May 26, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that I know exactly what's going on with my network devices. I have backups of everything, so there's not question of whether or not I have the config of my devices. It also lets me look at revisions to check to see if I'm noticing changes or something that might have "broken" something. It also helps me with audits. I can just handover my configs in one simple place instead of having to go and look at a 100 different places.

Lastly, it's nice to have it plugged into NPM. If you notice changes in the network either bandwidth issues, bottlenecks, or weird things, I can look at the network configs to do some correlation to see if a change caused these issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I dislike is that some devices aren't pulled in or don't pull much of value. I haven't encountered a ton of things, but you'd hope that you could get 100 % of your network devices covered. I've had issues with some Fortinet equipment, but I was able to get most resolved. Some things are somewhat manual, so it's not always 100% automatic as you might expect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I now have backups/configs of almost all my network devices. In addition, it's allowed me to gain insight into changes that I didn't know were being made by my team. It allows you to see if your changes have impacted the network when using NPM. I didn't even realize how much easier it would be to pull network configs for our yearly security audit. I just went to the config manager tab and started pulling the configs with ease.
