Overall Satisfaction with PRTG Network Monitor
We use PRTG to monitor all of our critical systems (firewalls, routers, switches, and servers). All the employees in the IT department have the program up all day and monitor it for issues. This helps us get in front of any issues and get resolutions in place and the network back up quicker.
- Monitoring different types of devices.
- Wide range of sensors available.
- Works well with a lot of the mainstream equipment in the market.
- Does a good job giving warnings based on the history of a sensor.
- Setting up specific alarms (example - high CPU usage) is very hard. Most times the alarms cause more work than just monitoring the PRTG GUI.
- Allows us to see potential issues before they become failures. Examples would be high memory or CPU usage, low disk space, etc.
- We are able to see outages right away instead of waiting for users to complain. This allows us to get in front of the issue and get it resolved quicker.
- Allows us to see the over all health of our complete network.
