Infrastructure Monitoring

Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds AppOptics

We use SolarWinds AppOptics to monitor infrastructure running in our production SaaS environment running on AWS. It is used by the entire engineering team. If a system fails or is exhibiting performance problems, we are alerted nearly instantly and can respond before our customers even notice there is an issue.

Pros

  • Simple installation and configuration
  • Easy to use UI
  • Good value
  • Many integrations with third-party software

Cons

  • Better cluster support: identify and group all related hosts automatically based on name
  • Saves time by simplifying troubleshooting
  • Avoids downtime through monitoring and alerting
We felt the competitors were both more expensive and more difficult to configure and deploy. We selected SolarWinds AppOptics because it provided better value both in terms of cost and user experience.

SolarWinds AppOptics is well suited for monitoring an environment with a diverse set of infrastructure, due to its wide variety of integrations supporting third party software and services. It is especially suitable for cloud environments (AWS, Google Cloud, etc.) where infrastructure is more dynamic in nature.
