SolarWinds IPAM Reviews

I use SolarWinds IPAM in my company for IP address management.

SolarWinds IPAM is not a tool on which I have extensively worked since I have been just using it in my company to manage the database of IP addresses. In general, my company uses SolarWinds IPAM as a database.

I am unsure if SolarWinds IPAM is good for network management. I know that the tool can manage IP addresses. From any improvement perspective, SolarWinds IPAM should consider working on the area where the tool lacks, which is its network management capabilities.

SolarWinds IPAM offers the functionalities it has promised to my company. There is nothing much that one can expect from a tool meant to manage IP addresses.

It's for IP address management. It has been more than 12 years since I have been using SolarWinds products in this firm. We are using seven to eight models of SolarWinds, such as SAM, IPAM, Virtualization Manager, UDT, and NPM. Over these years, we have done customizations and created so many dashboards and alerts that it's quite difficult for us to switch to a different application because we would have to do that customization again. If I bring new applications to my firm, I would need almost two years to make that equivalent to what we have now with Solarwinds.

We have an on-prem environment where we keep on deploying servers, etc. So, we need a tool like this to keep track of the static IPs. This is the only application that we use, and we are happy with this.

We use the solution for IP management.

We use the latest versions to avoid any security concerns.

The solution is deployed on-premises. There are 50 people using this solution in my organization.

I like the option to keep all of the available and used IPAM addresses in the central organization. Our teams are using Ansible Playbooks and taking IP addresses for available iPads with IPAM.

We are very pleased with the IPAM solution. It's very efficient.

The management of all of our IP ranges and bringing in our DHCP and DNS servers was quite easy. We got a complete view of our network addresses, and we got rid of a lot of Excel sheets after introducing this solution. We now have valid, not outdated, information.

Some processes are a little bit bumpy. There is always the question of where you want to design your processes, and this is may be better in a central service management tool and not in the IPAM. If you could request new IP addresses and stuff like that, it would be a little bit more straightforward.

The solution needs a design refresh. It does everything we need, but it's an old design approach. 

SolarWinds IPAM is a simple and user-friendly tool. The product’s most valuable features are IP configuration and IP authentication.

They should provide more details on the full stack feature. It needs to be integrated with the hypervisor. It helps us in system analysis and capacity planning.

IPAM’s search feature is deceptively powerful. I’m able to quickly look up, not only IP addresses, but VLAN IDs and hostnames, which makes tracking down networked devices quick and easy.

Our previous IPAM solution required users to install and configure a client, which had to be pointed at the IPAM server’s database. And managing user access was not intuitive. The SolarWinds IPAM solution presents users with a clean and modern user experience delivered to you via a web browser, and managing users and permissions is very simple. We spend less time managing IPAM, and more time managing our infrastructure.

The quality of the data with SolarWinds IPAM is very valuable to us.

I would like more updates.

The most valuable feature of SolarWinds IPAM is its automated IP address management. Instead of working with Excel sheets, it's automated and saves a lot of time and effort. Additionally, it is adaptable, IT managers enjoy it, and it is high quality.

I have been using SolarWinds IPAM for approximately 10 years.
