Storage Resource Manager gives a converged view. If you have already invested in SAM, NPM, VMAN, etc. then it makes sense to add SRM to the mix. That is ultimately the beauty of the Orion platform -- it is a single view of so many platforms, with such a diverse array of hardware and vendors, that the multi-vendor data center can't live without it.
SRM is competing against vendor-native tools. In many cases, the price points may be similar, but if you have a heterogeneous storage environment, then this is the tool for you.

SRM is a standout against all of the competitors really. If you own Orion, then this is a must-have module to integrate, especially with DPA, if you also have the module. Out of the box, it is a fantastic product. Whereas a product like Nagios requires development work to get it even remotely close to SRM. PRTG is cluttered and messy and OpsManager functionality isn't even on the same level.

We have a full suite of SolarWinds products and did not evaluate other options for a full package. For selective monitoring we log into the devices, but this has made that much easier as we have a dashboard rather than logging into devices one at a time.

Solarwinds storage resource monitor tracks space issues as related to storage. It is good for historical troubleshooting or real-time troubleshooting. We have selected Turbonomics for proactive alerting and recommendations in the environment. We use both tools for monitoring. And ultimately Turbonomics, allows us to consolidate our environment from a compute as well as a storage perspective.
