Each tool that we evaluated had their benefits. For a company our size, we were look at something simple, easy to manage, and fast to get started with. PRTG Network Monitor fit that bill the best. If we needed more than just the monitoring, we could potentially choose something …
We were experience with isolate product from platform's vendor. Later, the fist experience with an angnostic product was ManageYa te Engine OpManager. Then we change to PRTG Network Monitor because the cost of OpManager was really expensive with our infraestructure. The …
Setup for PRTG Network Monitor is much easier. SW npm requires two servers to run (One to run the product, and one for the SQL Database). PRTG Network Monitor only needs one server. From my experience SolarWinds requires a license per device, where PRTG Network Monitor is …
We selected PRTG Network Monitor because it's very easy to deploy and setup. It doesn't require too many skills or resources. With the trial license you can test it and see how many info you can get about your infrastructure and choose what to put under control and how to send …
I have only used it once and found it good also. But whatever things I wanted, I got them from PRTG Network Monitor; so basically, my purpose was over, so further R&D was not required. I adhered with the PRTG Network Monitor tool only happily. Many other tools are also …

Chose PRTG Network Monitor
PRTG is much simpler to use than SolarWinds. SolarWinds wins in the category of a massive amount of purpose built bolt-ons. If the intention is to go after a system which you can fully use to customize and integrate into your needs easily, PRTG wins. This was what the need was …
PRTG is much simpler to implement than both Nagios and Zenoss; mind you, this was before Zenoss released their cloud option.
It has a wide range of sensors and some are specific to both storage and network devices. The previous version didn't have any NetApp reporting at the …
In my opinion, there are many products in the market that provide vast monitoring options and a lot of customization flexibility and out-of-the-box integration with 3rd party tools such as Service Now, Splunk, and reporting tools. I find PRTG as a good tool for the following …
PRTG is with us for years, the same goes for pingdom. We didn't select one over the other, we use all of them but sometimes for different monitoring needs and sometimes in parallel for the same needs. Some of these tools were chosen not for monitoring purposes (for example, for …
I have deployed and tested three products for evaluation I found [PRTG Network Monitor] very easy to deploy, the deployment literally took not more than one hour including basic configuration and network discovery. After deployment few configuration changes and creation of …
In My organization we are using both solutions (1. PRTG & 2. Nagios)but almost Users are prefer PRTG due to its 1. simplicity (Dashboard features) 2. Brief Reporting (Logs etc.)
PRTG is a light weight Network Fault and performance monitoring tool with low cost and lower server specification. Although it is light weight still it covers all required network fault and performance monitoring parameters out of the box and also allows you to customize …
Cost and feature set was the biggest reason we went with PRTG. You get a ton of functionality for what you pay for. The ease of setup was a bonus once we started working with it. After working with Solarwinds and Nagios - I can't imagine going back to those solutions.
Compared to SolarWinds licensing model on monitors, we bought PRTG xl-1 unlimited license monitoring any device without any difficulty and not specific to servers, devices, network devices. We monitor any device in our organisation. We monitor location, temperature, specific …
In comparison with two other similar tools I have used in the past, I would put PRTG in the middle strictly in terms of features/performance, but at the top when overall value is considered. While SolarWinds does have some features that PRTG lacks, it comes at a much higher …
I found Nagios very difficult to manage and use. I used it on a Linux server and we are a Windows shop so it was not as easy for other IT staff to administer. It was also mostly text-based configuration so it was more difficult to configure.
I have had a brief interaction with SolarWinds, but in my opinion, PRTG is a better product for our needs. The cost is justifiable and it provides all the tools we need to monitor our products.
We used a product called Total Network Monitor for a time, but it was fundamental and was not suited to enterprise environments. PRTG Network Monitor was the only platform that provided the flexibility and configuration that we required at a reasonable price point. There are …
The big use was the user interface that PRTG offers for net-flow traffic. Whatsup and Splunk both trap net-flow information but PRTG's was a bit easier to weed through to figure out the issues. I did mention quick and dirty and PRTG can be installed and run perfectly on a …
