We performed a comparison between Entuity and PRTG Network Monitor based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"The setup was very simple and took about an hour."
"Entuity's best feature is its ability to monitor a large number of devices."
"Event management and the geographical Google API-based network topology are the most valuable features of Entuity."
"One of the most valuable features of Entuity is the user interface."
"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."
"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."
"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."
"From a network point of view, we can see the state of the network, as well as bandwidth usage and downtime."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is easy when it comes to dependencies of devices, so if your router goes down, the three or four switches behind it will automatically be paused so that you don't get multiple alerts."
"PRTG has improved our visibility and response time to issues related to remote sites."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"Network Discovery is a feature that our customers like a lot."
"The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is the dashboards. We can check to see the resources and the uptime."
"There is a simplicity to setting up the extra sensors. It's really easy for us to build infrastructure and start monitoring very quickly."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"Entuity can expand its coverage on monitoring VoIP solutions a little bit more."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."
"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution. You have to integrate it with your network, applications, and everything else. We have to collect that information from those solutions or relevant managers. Additionally, the SLA dashboard should be improved."
"Entuity currently has APIs, but they are not straightforward. They are not flexible if an external system wants to communicate with Entuity or create an integration that is not available out of the box. Its APIs can be flexible so that they can be utilized for external integrations that are not available out of the box."
"A typical user might want to see even more depth to the standard reporting and ease of integration."
"The configuration of the logging could be improved because if someone deleted any note or inventory, or some change to the inventory, we are not able to identify which user or which administrator modifies these details. For example, there should be read-only locks on maps to prevent their deletion. This way people can only read and cannot delete that particular map."
"Having a Unix implementation or Unix installation could be an improvement. Right now, it's based just on Windows, and that's a problem for some customers."
"The clustering aspect needs improvement, as there is a bit of confusion about you do when hit that 5000 probe mark."
"The Desktop app is good but it can be really sluggish at times, especially when you're editing different elements."
"I would like a more straightforward ability to create dashboards and maps. The network maps should be a bit more flexibility in the GUI to do what we need to do."
"The technical support could respond a little bit quicker."
"PRTG Network Monitor could improve by having a feature to allow uploading of preset standard network switch configurations and the ability to monitor the SLA configuration, such as uptime for the switches or internet connectivity. This would be very useful."
"We're using more cloud services now. It would be useful to be able to get information back from these cloud services in detail, and display any issues within PRTG for the rest of our systems."
"I wouldn't mind better categories for the sensors. When I go to add a new sensor for a new device, there are some categories in there already, and they can be filtered out, but there's quite a large pool of sensors... When I want to go in and find something quite specific, I have got to scroll down and scroll down to find what I'm actually looking for,"
