Juniper Flex Licensing vs. SolarWinds Hybrid Cloud Observability

Whether Juniper Flex Licensing is suited or not well totally depends on how network is consumed. I believe it is well suited for Data Centres, service providers, and security. As with Juniper Flex Licensing, you can right size the investments according to the needs of the company. I dont think it is suited for SME's.

- For small teams serving big organizations - it's a really simple tool to install and set up relatively quickly. - the new installer is also great - I don't have to understand what modules need to be installed; it's all streamlined. - The HCO Licensing allows you to run the Additional polling engines at a scale where the previous licensing model didn't. We can deploy APEs in locations now, which would not have been worth the investment in previously as there weren't enough devices in that location/region to spend the $$$$ on an APE License.

Juniper went down for the last few years because of no updates in the market, and Cisco took over, wherein Juniper recently has come back with new updates like Juniper Flex Licensing, and this is one of the best models of Juniper and now in utmost competition with Cisco.

Solarwinds has the best overlap of the two others I've mentioned - the other two tools (Datadog and Dynatrace) are great in their own way but Solarwinds is just good at everything; if I had to pick one tool of the above, it would be Solarwinds for the compatibility and ease of use, the other tools are more focused on being great at certain things while Solarwinds is the jack of all trades.
