Entuity vs. PacketTrap (Discontinued)

I think that if your organization is network-oriented (such as telecom or ISP) deploying Entuity should be considered a mandatory step. Big organizations will benefit from the ITSM (ticketing, monitoring and CMDB) integrations.

However, if your goal is to ensure that the server layer is monitored in great level (process and service monitoring, log parsing etc.) then Entuity will not suit your needs.

I would have said 10 if they didn't kill the product. I know Blue Folder took a piece of this, but we never got into it and just changed to Auvik and PRTG.

• Come back! After Dell purchased this, they ended support for it. In my experience, it was one of the better tools.
• Integration with other systems, but again, it is EOL, so doesn't matter.
• MiB library needs a refresh, but again, EOL.

Entuity support has always been quick to respond and the majority of the calls I had were resolved on the first call. In addition, the product documentation is easy to read and goes into great detail of how the product works. This is probably a reason why a support call is literally the last call for Entuity (no pun intended).

The list above shows you some of the products that Entuity replaces.

The good product and excellent support behind it make it a better choice from the admin's and EA's perspective. My customers have praised the short learning curve and the swift and professional support staff. From my own experience I can tell that this product is delivered with one of the finest sets of documentation I have ever seen.

Again, the main piece was config backups. That is a real big deal, when you are dealing with a lot of customers that don't have a change management process. So changes can be done to a networking device and we need to be able to review what it was one day and what it changed to the next. This happens a lot with internal IT departments, that break something and you support them as an MSP.

• Reconciling multiple tools (netflow, configuration, monitoring and discovery) into one tool simplified the support agreement.
• Root cause analysis (RCA) time has been greatly reduced thanks to having all information in a single interface.
• Security of the network devices has improved thanks to the discovery provided by Entuity.
