"You can put all of your work on there, they'll send you an email or send you a text. That functionality as a network engineer is the one I like the most. I do like the fact that we can schedule reports. That works too because that's a lot fewer spreadsheets that I have to create."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable."
"The ability to customize the views and dashboards is nice. SolarWinds also allows us to access the data via the API. That's probably the feature I liked the most."

"The stability is fantastic."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the monitoring capabilities."

"There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop."
"You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper."
"They should add more features to URL monitoring."
"We get a lot of false alerts."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"The solution's reports need to include the number of applications consumed."
"Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."
"They have had a rather large security breach in the past. It's cost some companies customers."
"Technical support and releases are not particularly reliable."
"A feature I would ask for is for them to have this solution available for Linux systems instead of Windows."
"It has covered everything, so no improvement is required at their end. The only thing is the price."
"Each model has different features, so clients need to purchase a separate model for SQL monitoring, database monitoring, network traffic analyzer, HTTP traffic, etc. So each feature they need is in a different model, but customers would prefer an all-in-one solution."
"I think Solar Winds NPM needs to create a profile with documentation responsibility."
"The tool can only monitor up to 1000 instances in a single SolarWinds console. Customers may have over 1000 instances. Hence, it needs to support a minimum of 1500 instances. It should also improve support."
"The console could be more user-friendly. It would be better if SolarWinds updated the user interface."
