Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds IP Address Manager (IPAM)

I have about 200 VLANs to maintain and SolarWinds IPAM is my sole tool to manage my network. It's got great search functions, auto-discovery, and sends notifications when a server reboots or doesn't start.
  • Helps with statically assigning IP addresses in my server farm.
  • Manages my DHCP and DNS servers.
  • Great reporting functions.
  • Not fond of the licensing features.
  • Slow to scan subnet.
  • Helpful when expanding my network.
Ease of use and a clean dashboard. I've been a SolarWinds customer for a long time and have always been happy with their products.
Customer service techs are knowledgeable and generally fix any issues on the first call. I've used their assistance to upgrade from an old version to a newer version, I was pleased with the experience.

It is well suited for mid and large enterprises that want a one-stop dashboard showing VLANs, percentage of available IP addresses, and understand the health of Windows-based servers. Deploying the agent to a server is very simple, thresholds can be set to alert users via email if certain conditions are met. IPAM connects to a Windows domain, making user management simple.
