Despite this drawback, the positive attributes of Mist make it a noteworthy option."
"There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points."
"There could be more integration."
"It would be beneficial to have support for the Chinese language."
"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."
"Having more technical and support resources available in Saudi Arabia would be helpful."
"They need to work on their automation and automatically discover devices. They are not very good at automatically discovering devices."
"The aesthetic widgets should be dynamic widgets, so the customization can be even more customizable."
"Real-time analytics is the major weakness of the SolarWinds NPM platform today. They've done a fantastic job enabling the collection of data. Users are now demanding the ability to generate their own graphs, views, and so on; all of this must be done by an admin today."
"If they’re going for a “cover everything” approach, then they need to do so and enable a bit more of the "cover everything approach" within every one of the tools."
"This solution would benefit from expanding on the capabilities within the API."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve the graphics of the interface and more customized reporting."
