meshIQ vs. SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset

If you're involved in any business that is related to banking, insurance and lending industry, take the short way and save yourself from thousands of wasted dollars on fraud detection and application management issues, Nastel is my savior and it's the most powerful killer solution to beat the fraud and have a winning application performance management, It's like hiring a mathematics magician with super powers to help businesses get over the delayed amount of time spent on a problem, and the average time to process a claim, reduce errors and most importantly to decrease the number of tickets at the help center for a better and higher customer satisfaction score.

I have found the toolset especially useful for scanning subnets to discover devices, and for setting up temporary real-time monitors when we are troubleshooting or setting up new connections. The most useful aspect has been the ability to apply the tools to help troubleshoot and pinpoint intermittent issues. More general tools like Orion often do not have the granularity to detect issues like intermittent packet loss which are especially impactful to applications like Voice. The toolset gives us another level of capability to dig into issues.

• The UI needs a lot of improvements to meet today's standards while keeping the functional part highly performing as it used to be
• Being unable to run reports through the workgroup security manager is a serious con, I think they need to consider giving it more attention
• the auto-monitoring feature performance goes low when it's enabled during a heavy workloads, it leads to a lower/heavier performance, but during the latest update I feel it got lighter somehow.
• They also need to give more attention to the encryption and enhance it with the latest encryption technologies

• The unifying component that is intended to be the initial interface to the tools seems clunky. I prefer to start the tools individually rather than using it.
• The port scanner could use some improvements to make it easier to use.

I haven't compared any tools similar to SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset. This might be because I'm pretty biased when it comes to monitoring, and reporting solutions. I've found that SolarWinds provides the biggest bang for the buck in my opinion. I'm sure there are other solutions on the market that compete, but I haven't tried any of them because I've been very satisfied with SolarWinds.
