Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM)

I have been using SolarWinds NPM for well over a decade. We have setup up hundreds of alerts and notifications that will email us when network notes ranging from servers, storage systems, VMware ESXi hosts, to all kinds of networking switches and gear encounter issues, are down, reset. We quickly are notified when a system is down or has rebooted and or has not come up in a timely manner.
  • monitor up/down status of network nodes
  • sends alerts immediately by email
  • good graphs and widgets to view at a quick glance status of nodes
  • maybe a little easier way to add new network nodes
  • we have been able to quickly identify issues from the alerts we have received
  • SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) has helped us quickly pinpoint which nodes are having issues
  • SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) helps us quickly identify if a particular location is having fiber or network connectivity issues
SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) allows us to monitor all of our network devices regardless of the vendor.
