Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager

We leverage this software to monitor, back up, and maintain our environment. Just a few of us in the IT department use this software. It helps us see what changes have been made to find issues and keeps our backups in case of failure of equipment. This has helped us a great deal.
  • Network Configuration Manager works really well for pushing out configurations to newly deployed equipment. It makes it a no-brainer.
  • NCM also takes the guesswork out of misconfiguration changes by allowing you to compare changes to configurations. That makes your job pretty painless in this area.
  • NCM allows you to inventory your equipment for easy inventory. It keeps you from having to have an Excel sheet to maintain it.
  • I really enjoy using Network Configuration Manager. I don't really any cons for it. It's pretty easy to use and configure.
  • SolarWinds gives us the ability to have minimal downtime. Staying up and running in a casino environment, you can imagine the impact of minimal downtime.
  • NCM helps by freeing me up to work on other projects and duties, giving me more time to work on more critical issues.
We have not utilized any other application, as they are all way more expensive.
We have had some really old equipment fail in production. Using Network Configuration Manager, we were able to get back up and running within 10 mins. This is a huge asset. When you have a ton of work this is one less thing you have to worry about. If you add other SolarWinds products, they work seamlessly together.
