"It covers everything from end to end, from the standpoint of endpoint machines and the routers and switches. The switch port also comes there."
"The solution ranks as one of the top five monitoring tools."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the monitoring capabilities."
"We can proactively fix historical issues, so we won't face those problems in future."
"We have configured multiple alerts for our network devices, including routers and switches, so that we are notified if any interface goes down."
"The interface is user-friendly, making it easy to use."
"What I've found most valuable about the solution is that it's scalable."
"The product is scalable."
"Versa Director is the fastest engineering tool and is ideal for use without product management."
"Versa Director's best feature is the ease of configuration and customer and vendor management."
"The most valuable feature of Versa Director is analytics."
"The most valuable functionality is some of the policy pieces that are quite useful."
"The technical support needs improvement."

"The solution is not always good with new features, so it's take a long time."
"The aesthetic widgets should be dynamic widgets, so the customization can be even more customizable."
"We decided that we were no longer going to trust that their products have not been capitalized."
"Each model has different features, so clients need to purchase a separate model for SQL monitoring, database monitoring, network traffic analyzer, HTTP traffic, etc. So each feature they need is in a different model, but customers would prefer an all-in-one solution."
"The only real caveat that we have or that I have an issue with is when I go on vacation, it's a little hard for me to go and modify alerts so that I don't get alerted about things when I'm on vacation."
"This product could improve by adding cloud monitoring. I want SolarWinds NPM to do much more integration, and have more involvement in cloud monitoring, like AWS or Google, or Azure. I feel like it requires lots of improvement for cloud monitoring in NPM."
"I would like to see some enhancement on the reporting side, such as making it a little bit easier to create reports or having a larger assortment of canned reports."
"It would be nice if SolarWinds could have a polling engine on the site that would collect the reporting and then manage everything itself."
"Versa could be more AI-oriented."
"Versa Director's deployment process is not the best."
"It requires some simplification."
"What needs improvement in Versa Director is maturity because, from an operating point of view, it's not mature enough. You'll still need to do a lot of research on Versa Director, so if it could mature faster, that would be very good."
