Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor
The site my company and I manage uses SolarWinds Server and App Monitor to monitor all endpoints of our network. Primarily we use it for our virtual infrastructure but do use it for our physical infrastructure as well. Additional physical infrastructure monitoring is used for networking and APC systems. It's pretty much a one-stop-shop for monitoring as it gives us a great visual overview of our network. We handle a lot of highly sensitive and high availability products so utilizing this in our shop is extremely beneficial. Most of our IT department has, at minimum read-only but administrative access is used by other sections primarily server, VDI, cybersecurity, and networking.
- Simply easy-to-glance-at graphical monitor.
- Seamless integration with physical and virtual infrastructure.
- Overall responsive management capabilities.
- Installation had a few issues with stability. We were able to implement the build, but we weren't sure if it came from our equipment or not.
- While the main graphical monitor was easy to use, the overall menu system wasn't as intuitive.
- Significant reduction in lost man hours due to outages thanks to the ability to actively monitor the network.
- Quicker forensic analysis of our network.
- Overall reduced time to troubleshoot major problems with our infrastructure
There wasn't any major competition with SolarWinds, it checked off all the boxes for our infrastructure. We feel that the product you offered was far superior than any custom or off the shelf product that could possibly be compared to this.
