Overall Satisfaction with Auvik

We use Auvik for Client Environment monitoring & management and use this to sync to our documentation portal. I do appreciate the updates to support Fortinet hardware and configuration in the last few years, it's come a long way. My favorite part is the configuration view and pulling historical configuration to audit changes made.
  • Bandwidth Monitoring
  • SNMP Polling
  • Alerting & reporting
  • Configuration snapshots
  • Better topology mapping for routed subnets
  • Support for Brocade FC switches
  • Bandwidth Monitoring
  • Device Monitoring
  • SNMP Polling
  • Hypervisor and host monitoring
  • Efficient troubleshooting of problems in networks and host enviornments
  • Less overhead of engineer time wasted to find a needle in haystack problems with logging
Auvik does build network diagrams much better than PRTG, but I do think certain thresholds for monitoring are easier to configure with PRTG. PRTG does not capture configuration snapshots/history and that is one of its major setbacks against Auvik, in addition to the remote management directly in Auvik. For this reason alone, I prefer Auvik.

Do you think Auvik delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Auvik's feature set?

Yes

Did Auvik live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Auvik go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Auvik again?

Yes

Most suited for larger enterprise environment inventory collection, network mapping, and monitoring, can also support small networks as well but the detail it pulls for complex environments with VLANs, subnets, and routing is great.
