Overall Satisfaction with PRTG Network Monitor

We use PRTG Network Monitor sensors to monitor for services, system attributes like CPU, memory, disk, and throughput. We used to use SolarWinds a year prior to their hack. SolarWinds required a significant amount of maintenance to keep working. We evaluated several tools and desired to monitor our entire fleet of servers and services. PRTG Network Monitor stood out in its simplicity and ability to have several sensors to monitor what we needed.

Pros

  • CPU, memory, and disk
  • Network throughput
  • Status of services
  • Alerting

Cons

  • Analytics platform
  • Anomaly detection
  • Correlation across servers
  • Saved 5% in human labor
  • Detection and response is now faster
  • Onboarding newcomers to network analysis is easier
Each tool that we evaluated had their benefits. For a company our size, we were look at something simple, easy to manage, and fast to get started with. PRTG Network Monitor fit that bill the best. If we needed more than just the monitoring, we could potentially choose something else but - for the foreseeable future - we believe PRTG Network Monitor is the right fit.
