Complex Event Management and Correlation: Some users have found the event management and event correlation features in ENA to be complex, requiring professional service for customization. This has been mentioned by multiple reviewers, indicating a common challenge with these functionalities.

Lack of Central Mapping Server: Several users have expressed complaints about the absence of a central mapping server in ENA. This feature is eagerly awaited by some customers, suggesting that it is an important requirement for network management.

Difficulty Moving Devices Across Pollers and Filter Issues: Users have reported frustration with the difficulty of moving devices across pollers in ENA. Additionally, there have been mentions of filters not remaining intact when selecting something from that filter and returning back to the same view. These usability issues have been noted by multiple reviewers.

Entuity is a powerful network management and monitoring software that provides real-time visibility into log activities, system performance, and health status issues. Users can effortlessly manage their entire network system by monitoring endpoints in real-time, regularly checking the health status, and conducting security audits. With a single dashboard for network management and excellent endpoints monitoring, users can easily discover issues in real-time and effectively monitor performance. The software enables dynamic network system monitoring and management, allowing users to rely on good network and performance monitoring as well as root cause analytics. It assists in identifying issues before they occur, reducing prolonged downtime and optimizing network efficiency. Entuity helps with network topology mapping, device discovery and monitoring, traffic analysis, and event correlation, making troubleshooting easier and providing reliable network management. Customers benefit from an effective IT monitoring solution that ensures data management and enhances overall network performance. Additionally, the software offers features like geo-mapping to track network outages, isolated latency and performance monitoring to reduce frequent network outages, and comprehensive reporting tools for analyzing essential information such as memory usage and SNMP response time. Overall, Entuity is highly regarded for its ability to proactively capture issues before they impact customers, integrate with other platforms seamlessly, consolidate networking devices effectively, and provide valuable insights into application performance.

The Entuity network monitoring tool from Park Place Technologies (acquired 2019) automates network discovery and uses workflows that enable users to see when something has gone wrong. Responsive dashboards allow users to take a high-level view to gauge network health or drill down to the component level to fix network problems.

SolarWinds NPM is a monitoring and performance management platform. It provides performance troubleshooting support, auto network discovery, customizable thresholds, and can be rapidly deployed.

SolarWinds ipMonitor is a lightweight performance monitoring tool. It enables monitoring from a single console and out-of-the-box visibility, with some automation available.

This 2 minute video explains why Entuity stands alone as the premier all-in-one network management solution with unique architectural underpinnings that make it work for you more than you work for it!

A network performance monitoring system monitors the entire network for performance problems and collects performance data such as network traffic analysis performance bottlenecks, etc.

Automated network device discovery allows all devices in the environment to be found and tracked

Monitoring network device availability and performance indicators like bandwidth, packet loss, CPU, WAN links, etc.

Calculation of baseline thresholds so to establish warning thresholds

Alerts warning of critical infrastructure component failure can be sent via email or SMS or other channel

Capacity planning analyzes interface utilization, disk usage, etc. and allows identification of capacity problems well in advance of threshold breach

Interception of data packets provides performance-related information such as network and application response times, and traffic type analysis

Dynamic mapping tool allows the network topology to be mapped showing performance metrics, and link connection and utilization

Ability to schedule, generate, and deliver custom performance and availability reports

Ability to monitor wireless access points, controllers, and connected clients

Ability to monitor key hardware metrics including temperature, fan speed, and power supply

Network Performance Monitoring Tools

I have deployed and supported Entuity in over 20 companies between Europe, Middle East and Africa. Entuity's solution is unparalleled when it comes to discovering and monitoring the network equipment. Good integration capabilities to ServiceNow and BMC Remedy allow for fault detection. If you decided to integrate into Manager of Managers for the Event and Capacity Management (which I would highly recommend), your organization just got the finest network monitoring there is (written in 2019). 
While it is able to discover and monitor the server estate, if you need a detailed monitoring of what is happening in the server, you may need to deploy a dedicated server solution. But if the basic information, up/down and port availability is enough to begin with (which it usually is!), Entuity has got you covered. 

TL;DR - excellent network monitoring with a very good netflow analyzer.

Exceptional network discovery and mapping.
Great CMDB integration capabilities.
Good event management integrations.

Detailed server monitoring.
Detailed storage monitoring.

Reconciling multiple tools (netflow, configuration, monitoring and discovery) into one tool simplified the support agreement.
Root cause analysis (RCA) time has been greatly reduced thanks to having all information in a single interface.
Security of the network devices has improved thanks to the discovery provided by Entuity.
