Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor

We use it to monitor our entire infrastructure to get alerts if a node goes down. We also use it to gather basic performance data.
  • Uptime
  • Performance history
  • I would like to see Mac addresses for nodes.
  • It's hard to quantify this. Its definitely been a good investment as we've caught several things we otherwise wouldn't have, like servers going down and hardware getting pushed past defined limits.
Easy to use once set up. Everyone needs a monitoring software regardless of the environments size.
