Alerting precision has reduced incident response times and improved department-level network visibility
The auto-pause sensor during the maintenance window is good without any false alerts, and it prevents me from getting flooded with alerts during planned maintenance, helping department heads understand their own network usage better. It has reduced incident response time by giving clearer ownership of each alert, ensuring alerts go to the proper recipient. SNMP testers and auto-pause are among the best features of PRTG Network Monitor, which is particularly useful for different departments such as HR and finance, where alerts can be filtered accordingly. The alerting features and dashboard of PRTG Network Monitor are very helpful, especially in our industry. However, the dashboard can look cluttered on smaller screens, which is one negative aspect. PRTG Network Monitor has impacted us positively; we have stopped getting flooded with alerts during planned maintenance or unplanned outages. Compared to others, this gives specific alerts very quickly and helps department heads understand their own network usage better, thus reducing incident response time so that each alert has clear ownership.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"The solution has excellent redundant features."
"PRTG Network Monitor is perhaps the most accurate tool we have used to monitor the capacity of the WAN connection."
"The most valuable features of PRTG Network Monitor are user-friendly, and the graphical interface is good for all the network devices that are mapped in this organization. It's very easy to find reports for any devices that we are looking for."
"Over the approximately two years that the company has been using this product, it has been very stable."
"It is great for service level agreements and can comply fully with internet monitoring or any interface."
"Network Discovery is a feature that our customers like a lot."
"We've managed to cut down on our P1 escalations by around about 70 percent."
"This solution provides us with the needed feedback on our IT infrastructure; it allows us to grab all the information from a single point of view."
 

Cons

"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
"I would like to have a VM version that can be installed on a cloud such as Azure. We're using Azure, and we're eliminating on-premise servers. It would be helpful to have a PRTG version that can be installed on the Azure cloud."
"PRTG Network Monitor should improve the NetFlow dashboard, there is no flexibility, and the NetFlow is not meeting the business needs. Additionally, they are missing part of the configuration management."
"They could improve the process of updating the license."
"Needs ability to monitor standard notification time (notify after X time)."
"There seems to be a big jump from the basic scan to the really thorough scan."
"I'd like to see the inventory of the device improved."
"PRTG Network Monitor could improve the price."
"I wouldn't mind better categories for the sensors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"If you are not too sure about it, try the free version. Then, if you like it, you can go to the paid version and roll it out."
"I would like better pricing models for smaller businesses. The free version is fantastic, but it's too restrictive. If they could just get up to 200 sensors for a reasonable fee for on-premise, I would give PRTG my credit card right now."
"PRTG Network Monitor's price is a little high."
"The pricing is not too bad. It's not massively expensive, and the ability to upscale or even downscale licenses every year is brilliant for us."
"The price was pretty good, very competitive."
"The pricing is reasonable for the features provided."
"The licensing fees are billed annually and there are no costs in addition to this."
"The price of PRTG is reasonable. PRTG's competitors like SolarWinds and ManageEngine charge more for the same functionality."
