    Pros
    Fortra
    • The best thing about Intermapper is that it is map-based. You start by building your map, which is done completely automatically. I've used many different monitoring software packages, Solarwinds, Nagios, Opmanager, and it is a royal PITA to create live maps with those.
    • Another great feature is that it shows you, visually, the bandwidth utilization of your network by using "ants" and color codes. Incredibly useful.
    • Alarms are very easy to setup, again much easier than the packages mentioned above.

    • Threat prediction and network forensics are the most useful features. It's possible for me to see who received and clicked on any malware on the network, for example. This is the feature I enjoy the most.
    • In addition, the capture packet provides a wealth of information.
    • The support.

    Cons
    Fortra
    • Setting up probes in bulk can be difficult, so it can take a long time to get the system set up correctly to start.
    • Sometimes the probes can be sensitive and report false positives.
    • Interface can be a little clunky and non intuitive at times.

    • Lacking out of the box best practice templates etc. It relies heavily on customization.
    • Lack of up to date threat feeds.
    • Difficult to learn and use initially.

    The product works well and is very easy to maintain. As such, we haven't had many occasions to use support. When we have called them they were easy to contact and responsive to our questions. We have had the product for years and it may have been a year or better since the last time we contacted them.

    Intermapper is a cross between WhatsUp Gold and Nagios. WhatsUp Gold being for a less technical end-user and Nagios doing more than just SNMP scans and up down monitoring.

    ES offers the single pane of glass for investigation and monitoring needs, however, to get everything onboarded can be daunting. The identiy and assets enrichment was not as straightforward and required a lot of manual work to make them work. For it to be optimized for full benefit, there is a layer of complexity that needs to be managed along the journey post deployment as well

    • Downtime costs money. Every minute we can get ahead of an outage is time that a plant is not sitting there waiting. We don't need to wait for a call from a plant, we know they are down immediately and we can begin troubleshooting.

    • The tool is great and an important part of my tool box
    • The level of administration needed is a little too high
    • Support relationships have to be customer led and prompted
