Overall Satisfaction with Intermapper

We use Intermapper to monitor all of our servers and our network infrastructure. We use this specifically in the IT department and it allows us to be proactive instead of reactive.
  • Provides SNMP and WMI probe data.
  • Alerts us in advance of issues.
  • Allows us to customize notifications for different groups of individuals in the district.
  • Setting up probes in bulk can be difficult, so it can take a long time to get the system set up correctly to start.
  • Sometimes the probes can be sensitive and report false positives.
  • Interface can be a little clunky and non intuitive at times.
  • Very positive impact for us because we are the ones who know if there is an issue before an end-user.
  • The alerts have allowed us to know about failing batteries, low disk space, low memory, etc. before anyone feels the impact.
  • The view of our entire network has allow us to better plan projects and understand where everything is within our environment.
We felt, with both pricing and level of complexity, that Intermapper was the right solution. We looked at WhatsUpGold, but the price was too high for us at the time. We looked at Nagios, which is free, but we didn't find it intuitive.
I think overall it's a great product that does what it's designed to do, which is allow you to be proactive with your environment. It's perfect for us where we're trying to monitor server activity with WMI probes and SNMP probes. If you want to do a of data flow analysis, I think Intermapper is a little clunk y for that.
