Great monitoring tool

  • December 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoyed the ability to navigate and also the environment summaries that are available.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some displays can be overwhelming with data but it is not a deal breaker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to maintain a higher level of availability and response to issues with any of our servers and hosts. This helps to eliminate downtime as much as possible and resolve issues quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make a full assessment of your infrastructure and assess the reliability of your current monitoring system. Do you have the ability to facilitate monitoring on a global infrastructure scale? Also, I would assess choosing the right layout that works best for your team and the quantity of servers hosts and nodes you may have. Also, assessing other software you can integrate is a great way to centralize communication and monitoring.

Help to identify and provide solution by monitoring.

  • December 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Solarwinds tools provide a broad Community / Forum service support for all network devices and servers, which helps you to easily solve problems. Solarwinds features a pooling system that lets you install solarwinds as many servers as you want beside solarwinds. You never restrict yourself to the database with this pooling method.
What do you dislike about the product?
The linux server can not be used as much as I know, only the windows server can be used. If you have many devices / nodes, some graphs view data very slowly, very similar to PRTG / MRTG software, web guys so slowly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SolarWinds Network Monitoring Tool has great capabilities for monitoring network devices with snmp, make models, netflow / sflow supports and simple configuration. For solar winds you can do almost all the apps you need. This great tool however has an important webgui issue. Solarwind Webgui is very slow even with a lot of polling servers. I assume mysql and asp choices are related, so it's not rapid like PRTG.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you monitor / manage the system number, learn as much information as you can and use the community / forum as possible.

The only IP address management option we need

  • October 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SolaWinds IP Address Manager is not only scanning the equipment, but also providing connections to the controlled information for our unit, because of the inclusion with the SolarWinds suite. It provides some good ranges of scanning for verifying IP use. Alsp, you can discover an accessible IP and use it via SW and log the IP address background. SolaWinds IP Address Manager also allows for integration with DHCP and offers support for DNS.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not allow to change templates on the DNS management. Also, I would loke to configure event alerts as a protected IP address, which I’m enabled to do right now. Honestly, the only way to get the most from SolaWinds IP Address Manager is by integrating it with other SolarWinds software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In all our subsidiaries SolarWinds IP Address Manager is the only IP address management option throughout our business. It allows us to deal with the issue of IP email organization and VLAN monitoring. Since IPAM also registers the last reply, the systems that have been removed or halted can be searched easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SolaWinds IP Address Manager is a useful tool to register all IP addresses. It is best suited for medium-sized and big enterprises, although small businesses would certainly get some benefit from it. However, consider that if your network is made up with restricted public space, it would not work good for you, as it won't be able to work properly for complex networks.

Least Impressive MOST Expensive product

  • September 26, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Monitors up/down status but that's basically about it
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't go as granular as we thought regarding monitoring our network, especially when it comes to Meraki equipment.

customer services/support makes you pay to get upgrade assistance, even then there is very little to none help with upgrading software unless something breaks,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we have the ability to confirm or not whether sites are actually down and I can view my top conversations on my network which helps me determine which devices are connected to what and for how long.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
try live action if you want deeper analytics into your network as well as Meraki

For a small company like us the licensing costs are really high.
