The vendor is willing to work with us and develop solutions for products they did not already have an integration for.
As with any new software implementation, during the integration we found a couple of minor issues when integrating certain products (such as SCOM). However, each time this happened Evanios was very quick to identify the bug we were seeing, patch it and provide the new update set for us to install. Also, during the evaluation of Evanios we found that they already had integrations with most of our larger monitoring tools, however they also stated that they would be able to create update sets to integrate certain products we used that they did not currently support. This proved to be very valuable for us because they were able to become an even better fit for our organization by creating update sets\integrations for PRTG, Quest Foglight, TIBCO and Thousand Eyes as well.

Efficiently monitor networks across regions with seamless setup and robust feature set
PRTG Network Monitor is easy to set up. Within a few minutes, it is operational. It is an all-in-one monitoring solution without extra costs. For example, we set it up for an insurance company with branches across Africa. We are able to monitor from Lagos without installing anything in the branches, using the agentless feature. We just put in the IP address and the parameter, and we monitor from those ends. Additionally, all the sensors are very useful. Most people are interested in the bandwidth monitoring sensor to see what bandwidth the users are consuming. The pricing is affordable compared to SolarWinds.
