Auvik Network Mapping and Documentation
Auvik is used to document and support multiple networks throughout our business. It's still under construction but becoming more valuable by the day. Will be used to diagnose errors while monitoring traffic at the sites. We use a shared collector and in some instances, we've found more information can be gathered by deploying a collector onsite. Multiple collectors monitor traffic and all nodes on multiple networks to increase performance and improve troubleshooting.
- Visual documentation of network mapping
- Easy to add new sites/networks
- Clearly defined network architecture which aids troubleshooting
- Customizable alerts which can be tailored to our sites for urgency
- Geolocation map which can easily show us where traffic is accessing our networks
- Non-standard industrial equipment shows up as generic devices on the network
- RDP in remote management would be handy
- Additional notes section for networks would be handy

Excellent Network Resource
Taking over a new environment, Auvik has helped find/diagnose network layouts and issues. I have also been able to find many issues revolving around some older devices in the network. This provided us a use case for upgrades and a clear picture of what is truly going on in our network.
- Network Layout
- SNMP Alerts
- Traffic Insights
- Services for Domain Environments
- AD Integration
- Mobile App

Ideal solution for managed service providers
The business problem that most of our companies face is the lack of visibility on the infrastructure operations. Auvik does the job by providing granular data and generating alerts, whenever there is an issue. The scope of my use case is firewalls, routers, and switches from the top to end-users.
- Granular alerts on how many packets are processed in a switchport
- Direct remote access to devices
- Prompt alerts sent through email
- Ticketing integration (ConnectWise)
- An option to use a different account temporarily for remote access to managed devices
- Redundant/load balancing for Auvik collectors

Auvik is a great tool that anyone can setup and operate.
We use Auvik to monitor internal network devices and to monitor client networks as part of a managed service offering.
- 3rd party integration.
- Sets up very quickly.
- Intuitive interface.
- Slow to add new device functionality. I have been working for weeks with support to get extreme switches working.

Auvik set it and forget it
We are an MSP we use Auvik internally as well as deployed to our clients. It is great for centrally managing network equipment. It also has a great notification system for down alerts. We use this product primarily for network monitoring and maintenance. The logical map helps see how everything is connected to the network.
- Network Discovery
- Terminal connections
- configuration backups
- the Auvik portal running in a large environment is very slow. I would like to see a way to make it load faster

Early Days of Deploying Auvik and It’s Already My New Favorite Network Monitoring Tool
We use Auvik as a single place to monitor network performance and backup network device configurations.
- Single interface for network monitoring
- Discovery of devices
- Ease of use and navigation
- Having a more clear navigation banner showing where you are
- Single sign on integration walk through
- Providing automated suggestions based on what hardware is found

Auvik Traffic insights and network discovery
We use Auvik to support other ISPs and networks. Auvik really allows us to look at traffic usage and patterns with their traffic insights. We currently have our own internal network on Auvik as well as individual supported networks. Our affiliates really appreciate the ability to "see" the traffic patterns in their networks.
- traffic insights
- network discovery
- network security
- Install and launch instructions, especially regarding shared collectors can be difficult to follow.
- The branded colors of gray and black lines can be hard to understand and things with a higher contrast like green for good connections might be beneficial.
- Persistent filters on the traffic insights dashboard would be useful.

Auvik - A great fit for MSPs
CHR Creative is an MSP and thus we use Auvik for network discovery and audits on customer networks. Auvik is also used to help assess CIS 18 controls on those customer networks.
- Automates network device discovery
- Automates subnet discovery
- Automated alerting of performance issues and critical alerts for network appliances
- Integrates well with Datto products (Autotask PSA, Datto Networking)
- Integrates well with IT Glue
- Graphical exports of the network map - something for executive review of assets
- A subset of KB articles or sites dedicated to displaying an updated list of supported network equipment
February 25, 2022
Network Mapping Made Simple
Auvik allows us to monitor all of our client networks from a single platform. Before Auvik we had to log into multiple portals to view network events and the alerting was all over the place. However, after installing Auvik we have unified alerting to the proper techs and full visibility into network issues.
- Network Mapping
- Alerting
- Insight into Network Hardware
- Portal interface could use a facelift and more intuitive design.
February 25, 2022
Happy and hopeful, but still room to improve
As an MSP we use this product to monitor our customer's network infrastructure.
- initial scans
- inventory details
- provides flexibility
- drawing respresentation
- support more vendors products
- discover more connection detail and handle over-ruling data sources
February 22, 2022
Good Product
We install it on our MSP clients to monitor and map their network. I work in the team that sets up the devices and Auvik naming networks and setting up SNMP and standardizing logins.
- Maps the network
- Identifies subnets
- Monitors devices
- Clearer diagram. More like Meraki that seems pretty good.
- Being able to go back to a list of search once you have clicked on something.
Mostly we use Auvik for monitoring, audit, backup and reporting to our other systems.
We deploy them on client environments to detect issues, bottlenecks and upgrade paths.
- Integrate Auvik reporting to our CRM and service desk to allow near instant acknowledgement from the team when critical equipment have issues.
- Deploy to new environment to understand the scope of the network so we can compare what the client tells us and what we can see.
- Config backups and monitoring
- Bandwidth monitoring

- Config backups and monitoring
- Bandwidth monitoring
- Visualization of the network
- Great selection of config options
- Flexible implementations
- Great documentation and support
- Performance of the visualization is a bit slow to show.
- Some of the UI can be counter intuitive.
- No app on IOS or Android (web performance are not great even on the latest ipad).
- Takes a fair bit of time to set up right.

A Must Have for an MSP Toolbelt
Auvik saves time during the initial onboarding of a client by helping to see network issues that would be tedious to find manually. The automatically generated map saves time while troubleshooting while also raising alerts in the PSA and highlighting issues before they are known. After the setup process, the product is mostly set and forgotten and can be left to monitor the network for any issues that arise or change, while also useful to manage switches/routers with config backups and remote management.
- Automated alerts and monitoring
- Network Map which makes it easier to display outages/faults
- Remote management with terminal
- Backup of switch/router configs
- Setup process is tedious at times but usually only needs to be done once
- Setting up correct credentials on devices can be frustrating with the UI and the agent waiting to retry if they were incorrect

Makes network changes a breeze!
I really like being able to have network maps, making it easier to push out new network changes such as adding new VLANs, diagnosing network issues, etc. It helps me to isolate a problematic device and work out physically where it's connected, what speed it's running at etc.
- Network maps
- Device info
- VLAN info
- Moving the network map is sluggish
- Better zoom function
- More filtering options (i.e filter per VLAN)

Give Auvik a shot, we did and love it!
I work for an MSP and we rely pretty heavily on Auvik. Once we get a new client, we deploy Auvik and set it up to map out the network and for alert monitoring. This has helped us with certain issues that occurred on VM hosts that we did not know were happening in some instances. Auvik also helps us find devices on the network, builds a great network topology map, and helps us monitor their networks alongside our stack.
- Network Topology
- Alerting
- ease of use
- can be somewhat a pain to setup

Auvik the greatest tool since sliced bread.
Auvik makes our daily networking tasks easier than ever! With features like automatic configuration backup, alert management, asset management and performance monitoring we couldn't be happier.
- IT Asset Management
- Performance Monitoring
- Configuration Backup
- Alert Management
- The user interface is sometimes unintuitive
February 17, 2022
positive
we use it to actively monitor all network items, remote into web GUI-enabled devices, and have a literal view of the entire network. the business problem that Auvik addresses are the ability to view the entire network at a glance, having all the items interactive, and being able to show the client all of these items is a big part of having a great, open relationship with our clients.
- The interactive SNMP map that is automatically made
- The support through live chat is quick and to the point
- The fact that you can proxy in to all web GUI's is incredibly handy.
- I can't think of any areas needing improving.

Auvik is da best!
We currently use Auvik to monitor network traffic throughout our district. Before Auvik, we were made aware of outages by users when they had no connectivity. Now with Auvik, we can get in front of issues and give our users a better experience. This has been a game-changer in our eyes!
- The interface is excellent.
- Technical support is always helpful.
- Training portal is a great help.
- Purchasing the product could be easier.
- More integration with platforms such as Slack.
- More exposure at conferences and showcases.

Auvik for Admins who just need to know what their network is doing.
We use Auvik to monitor our client's infrastructure. With its robust notification system, it lets us filter and alert for issues that need to be addressed and issues that can wait. Its configuration backup system is grate takes the worry out of it all. With configuring different as well it makes auditing easy.
- Notifications.
- Configuration backup
- Support Docs.
- Device management interface.
- Interface can be clunky sometimes.
- Addresses for the map sometimes don't geo locate to the right place.
We use Auvik as our Network monitoring solution. We have it set up to generate Alerts based on what we find important. It addresses items that may have been missed by doing manual monitoring in the past.
- Alerting
- Network Mapping
- Traffic Insights
- We find Cisco FTD monitoring/Alerting could use some work.
- Make OID alerting a little smoother to setup.

Auvik, the best NMS you will ever look at.
Auvik provides a wonderful cloud-based NMS, giving us an always-on, and always accessible portal to keep an eye on our network infrastructure and status. With Auvik's many integrations, we are able to get timely alerts and notifications to our various tools. Auvik has filled a real gap in our network monitoring and management.
- Network Topology Mapping
- automatic network scanning
- device classification
- from my perspective, nothing.

Auvik is an excellent suite to use as an IT professional
We use Auvik so we get a 3D live view of a client network. It gives us the visibility we need to be able to resolve issues that may occur. It makes our jobs 10x easier with the access and control Auvik provides.
- Network Access
- Network Management
- Detailed view of a system
- Switch access may sometimes take too long

Auvik Review
Auvik keeps us abreast of the networks we manage. We get stats on firewalls, wan connections, ESXi hosts, switches, and other connectivity. Notifications on a WAN connection going down lets us investigate with the ISP right away on outages. High utilization of switches and ports lets us know if a workstation or server is going haywire.
- WAN connection monitoring
- Mapping networks
- Switch utilization
- ESXi host monitoring
- SNMP connectivity with Fortinet Access Points
- Showing port connectivity from switch to switch
- Drawing the map of networks

Auvik
Auvik has really helped us with onboarding new customers, as well as supporting our existing customer base. It has been a big time-saver for us to troubleshoot potential network issues. We have found rogue equipment and equipment that was faulty, both of which cause headaches for managing client's networks.
- Keep track of devices on the network
- Troubleshoot poor network performance
- Find rogue equipment
- It could do a better job of automatically understanding what type of device it has discovered.

Hop on the Auvik Wagon
We use Auvik as a logical and visual tool for networks, both familiar and new. It has a granular alerting system that notifies us through integrations with our other tools, giving a detailed perspective from inside the network. It can help discover those devices hidden behind closed doors/walls/ceilings and provides a level of mapping unmatched by other tools.
- Support response
- Documentation of product
- Ease of use
- Permissions issues within the product and with integrations
- Map view in browser can be tough to read depending on your monitor/resolution
- Some terminology, such as in alert configurations, is not 100% clear
