Arunpandiyan M - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly, simple to set up and easy to configure
The dashboard needs to improve. It's not so clear right now. We need it to be more usable. We want all of our reports in one easy-to-access place. Sometimes we get stuck and have to rest the gateway. After we do that, it'll start working again. We're still new to the product and we're not using every aspect of it.
RP
A network monitoring platform with a useful reporting feature, but permission-based options could be better
The initial setup is fairly easy. Most of it's wizard-based. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to set it up. But if you don't know certain things related to protocols and everything else, it might be difficult. If you know how SNMP works, it'll be fairly simple to set up.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"You can customize alerts based on need."
"It's very easy to manage and use."
"The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"Reporting on NetCrunch is pretty good. It's very similar to SolarWinds. It's just a different interface. The majority of everything there was beneficial."
 

Cons

"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"I didn't care for the role-based, permission-based options, which were not the best."
