Overall Satisfaction with Auvik
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.
- Quicker response to outages
- Early detection of failing hardware
- Load time can be a bit slow when things are super urgent
- Experience is not great if you don't have a big screen
We already have a set tool that we use and we use Auvik to fill in the blanks and double up for backups. not a lot of tools are able to do what Auvik does, but it also goes the other way around. With network monitoring, Auvik does have more features compared to some others. While remote access features can be lacking and usually for advanced techs only.
