Overall Satisfaction with PRTG Network Monitor
PRTG was used for infrastructure monitoring, system availability, and proactive monitoring. We relied on PRTG for our out of hours alerting. It allowed us to easily deploy and use a powerful and simple, yet cost-effective monitoring tool that suited our business needs.
Pricing was important to us but more important was ease of use, and although perhaps not as powerful as some of its competitors, PRTG handles large infrastructures well, and is particularly quick and easy to deploy, without the need for complex client installations.

Easier to configure, lower cost, greater potential usage, better for mixed environments. Easier to use and certainly easier to setup than the competition.
