Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager
Network Configuration Manager is a valuable tool and we currently use it to back up all router, switch, and firewall configurations on our network of over 100 devices. It allows us to recover/replace devices very quickly as well as deploy configuration changes to multiple devices very quickly, saving us hours of labor every year. I highly recommend this product if your environment is Cisco based.
- Network equipment backup/restore/replace.
- Report changes to existing equipment with side by side views of previous running configurations.
- Deploy configuration changes to multiple devices at once using built-in variables.
- Would like to have a more straightforward workflow.
- The ability to reset NCM config and pollers to default.
- Decreased labor costs for deploying new or replacing existing equipment.
- Reduced troubleshooting time for network related issues.
- NCM makes multiple changes more efficient across the network.
