It is a simple yet powerful tool for monitoring server and applications.

  • April 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that Solarwinds had made many improvements over the past years and now they have alot of modules and products that complements each other. for SAM, it is a really powerfull tool for monitoring and knowing what is happening with the services/application. It leaves the guessing outfor us administrators. Really easy tool. You should try it now
What do you dislike about the product?
Well at first maybe you need to know a little bit more about what you want to monitor for the application part. but when you get the hand of it, its really simple and useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are monitoring our critical applications, like middleware, web services and crm. Before solarwinds SAM, we have a hard time troubleshooting when the applications went "Slow" or unavailable. Now with the insights of SAM, we can look for the root cause of the problems very quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should try solarwinds with a demo and reach out to a partner or solarwinds directly. They can do a PoC and algo help you look for the best products for you needs. Make sure you know what are your needs and let them know what are you pain points.

Expidite the resolution time for any Application

  • April 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Versatility in monitoring with various out of the box components and the script based components.
Advanced monitoring using some of the customizable components mixed with dynamic and Advanced/SQL Alerting allow for any imaginable or experienced scenario to captured by SAM and properly alerted on.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much that you can not do with SAM. Most of my complaints or issues rally around UI and some minor functionality. Though where the out of the box measures fall short, there are many customizable options to fill the gap to obtain and provide the data and insight needed top properly run and manage multiple business critical applications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Over the years I have used SAM for Notification of downed or stalled applications and machines. This has ranged from mechanical pharmaceutical dispensers to debit card printers at local branches. Faster remediation of both clinical and pharmacy applications and devices has prevented financial and total life loss on a regular basis. Alerting on debit card printer issues allowed a Card Service Provider to better communicate and re-mediate issues with printing new debit cards before it affected clients access to their own funds.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have a few specific idea's of implementation when demoing. If you are unable to setup a POC provide these details to your sales rep and request a tuned demonstration based around your need.

Best tool for servers Admin

  • April 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You have all the information that you need in only one single point. Solarwinds have the agents that help you to understand what is happening on your servers and not only the bare metal you can go until the application.
“This is one of the mandatories tools that all organization should have. Solarwind SAM helps us to see what was happening with our servers and application. They have several agents that help us to know better the behavior and follow from the server to the client. For better results you should add the other solarwinds components like Virtualization Manager, NPM, SRM, that will give you the big picture of all your infrastructure. The admin console is very easy to use and by default give you a lot information”
What do you dislike about the product?
You need an agent for each software that you have, if you have a database on your server you will need and agen for the database, if you need monitoring networking you should install a other agent.
You have to buy all the package to get better information, because if only buy the SAM, them you will need to know how is your network so you will need the NPM, them you need to see is is the storage so you will need that package.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The initial issue for all server admin is the not visibility or undertand what is happening in the server, not only when you are troubleshooting but also in your daily activities. So now with solarwind SAM we have that visibility and the understanding of what is happening.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Include other solarwinds product to get more information, also install the agent in each server in order to get better information.

Great Unified IT Monitoring tool!

  • April 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use Orion performance monitor with net flow traffic analyze add on as well as the Virtualization Manager. I like the fact that you can add monitoring templates depending on the device that you want to monitor and also its great that you can create NOCs views with visual and audio alerts
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool is a little bit expensive and upgrading from one version to another is not straight forward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are managinng more than 500 hosts and this tools help a lot to monitor each interface and let us know when something is not right.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to monitor network devices don't forget to add the net flow analyzer add on.
