Overall Satisfaction with PRTG Network Monitor

As a PRTG Network Monitor administrator, I use it to proactively monitor our entire network infrastructure. It helps quickly identify and resolve connectivity or performance issues, minimizing downtime. PRTG provides real-time alerts, detailed reports, and historical data, ensuring our network runs smoothly and efficiently for our clients. It very helps us in our organization.

Pros

  • real-time alerts
  • detailed reports
  • historical data

Cons

  • High cost of license
  • Special support for business clients
  • Improve our reacting to problems
I would rate PRTG Network Monitor's overall usability as very high.
The interface is easy, setup is straight-forward.
Customizable dashboards make it easy to monitor key metrics. Even begginers can navigate it effectively. However, managing a large number of sensors may require some experience for optimal configuration and performance.

Yes

PRTG is ideal for monitoring bandwidth usage, detecting device failures, or spotting slow network segments in real-time. For example, it alerted us instantly when a critical router failed, allowing rapid response.
However, it’s less suited for very large-scale environments without proper segmentation, as performance can degrade with too many sensors.
