Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor
Our IT department uses it for monitoring and alerting. It allows us to view the almost real-time statistics in order to better gauge an understanding of our network and server infrastructure.
- Performance reports based on usage statistics.
- Managing devices, whether they're servers or network components, is relatively easy.
- Real-time monitoring would be the ultimate goal, but that would be resource intensive. Currently, SolarWinds only does it in intervals, depending on what you set.
- Sluggish interface based on older development platforms. Needs to be modernized and updated.
- Overall, SolarWinds is beneficial, but the cost is exorbitant. I think that money could be more appropriately spent elsewhere, while also leaving room in the budget for other necessary infrastructure and operations upgrades.
- SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor, SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager and SolarWinds Network Bandwidth Analyzer
For the most part, SolarWinds products work great 95% of the time. They have great functionality, but since SolarWinds is an application that has been developed for several years, there is plenty of bloat, which causes some severe slowness. If you can deal with the slowness, the modules are great and are incredibly beneficial.
