PRTG Network Monitor and Huawei eSight are key players in the network monitoring industry. Based on the data comparisons, PRTG Network Monitor appears to have the upper hand due to its widespread compatibility and ease of use.
Features: PRTG Network Monitor provides easy setup, scalable architecture, and a cost-effective solution with extensive sensors and effective alerting systems. Huawei eSight is well integrated with Huawei devices, simplifying monitoring in Huawei-centric networks.
Room for Improvement: PRTG Network Monitor could enhance template management, sensor customization, and cloud integration, along with modernizing its user interface. Huawei eSight should expand device compatibility, simplify network topology views, and improve third-party API integrations.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: PRTG Network Monitor supports Hybrid, Public, and Private Cloud deployments, with generally reliable customer service. Huawei eSight focuses on On-premises deployment, offering similar levels of customer support but with localized service challenges for global audiences.
Pricing and ROI: PRTG Network Monitor is cost-effective compared to alternatives like SolarWinds, although the price can be high in smaller environments. Its licensing model contributes to reduced system downtime, yielding favorable ROI. Huawei eSight is competitively priced, especially for Huawei-centric infrastructures, with both solutions promising ROI through minimized downtime and efficient monitoring.
Huawei's eSight is a unified software suite for planning, operating, and maintaining complex enterprise ICT infrastructure from global, converged networks and data centers to multimedia and video communications that includes the facilities necessary for delivering performance and IT services. eSight provides a platform that supports infrastructure and devices from third-party providers, to develop custom management applications and improves O&M efficiency.
PRTG Network Monitor runs on a Windows machine within your network, collecting various statistics from the machines, software, and devices which you designate. PRTG comes with an easy-to-use web interface with point-and-click configuration. You can easily share data from it with non-technical colleagues and customers, including via live graphs and custom reports. This will let you plan for network expansion, see what applications are using most of your connection, and make sure that no one is hogging the entire network just to torrent videos.
To monitor a large IT environment, it's important to be able to scale PRTG up. Paessler PRTG Enterprise Monitor includes all the proven capabilities of PRTG Network Monitor, which are enhanced by exclusive ITOps Board for a service-oriented, central overview of multiple PRTG servers.
