Aviatrix vs. ManageEngine RMM Central

This product offers simple ways to manage network routing between public cloud, on-prem, and external network. It has built-in options to secure network traffic, as well as option to direct traffic to 3rd party security products for a more advanced traffic inspection. The core function works and is easy to operate. On the other hand, I am unable to give it more than 7-star because some useful features are lacking. This includes lack of customization in email alerting, IPS policy management, and temproarily admin-down of an established site to site VPN connection.

It's well suited in case of asset management along with monitoring of hardware and softwares. Performance monitoring for Middleware platform is another factor of using it but sometimes alerts got malfunctioned in our scenario which cab be due to multiple reasons along with hardware requirements. We got difficulty creating redundant monitors for few of the assets. But overall it's good

• With a few very easy steps to establish routing between AWS VPC
• Easy procedures to establish site to site VPN connection with external parties.
• Provide network access control on routing traffic using its own build-in firewall inspection or directing traffic to 3rd party NGFW for full stack inspection.

Incentivized

• Reporting at granular level
• Adding monitors
• Add grooving scripts
• Alerts

Incentivized

• It lacks of ways to admin-down an established site to site VPN connections is one of the short coming.
• In network traffic inspection, it lacks options to customize the IPS function is another short coming.
• While the product allows lots of email alerting options, it lacks ways to customize the alerting email messages and ways to suppress alert flooding.

Incentivized

The core function of the product works very well. It really makes network traffic management easy in public clound, as well as crossing different public and private cloud platform.

Very responsive and very strong technical skill even on the first teir support.

We initially tried using the native routing funcitons in AWS (transit gateway) and in Azure (virtual network). While those native options worked, it became difficult to opeate when we tried to impose security inspection on the routing traffic. This leads us to the Aviatrix solution.

Incentivized

Simple to use and easy to understand. Almost all features are GUI based which are good in comparison to others softwares like ConnectWise RMM. In comparison to that using groovy and other scripts along with standard features is the best thing you will find. Overall it's unique experience to use this.

Incentivized

• Reduce labor hours for network admin to manage public clound network routing policy.
• Build-in security features may be good enough for small/medium size companies, and thus saving money from full funciton NGFW solution.
• The Cost-IQ feature enable one to capture traffic volume of each VPC. This provides one way for the enterprise to perform cost charge back to various business funcitons at the VPC level.

Incentivized

• Resource management
• Risk mitigation
• Manage engine timely support
