I really have not experiences with Solarwinds in the Azure Public Cloud. I would believe Solarwinds would have a good product in comparison. However with my experiences with Azure Tools, I do not think I would be inclined to go that route unless a reason presents itself. I am satisfied with Azure Network Watcher.
