The initial migration and the initial days of monitoring Catchpoint involved having a dedicated TAM and a dedicated support number that could give us quick answers.

Auvik Network Management excels in scalability, efficiently managing networks of all sizes with easy deployment and automatic device discovery.
Sentiment score
7.1
Catchpoint efficiently scales to meet organizational needs, supporting applications and growth through SaaS capabilities and public nodes.
Its automated network discovery and centralized dashboard make it easier to bring additional supported devices into the monitoring environment without having to manage each device separately.
Infrastructure Engineer at a consultancy with 1-10 employees
The platform scales well and supports our organizational needs.
Core Services Engineer at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
It was capable of handling all those clients perfectly.
Windows & Network System Administrator
The migration part, especially onboarding a new application for monitoring, is seamless and does not require a lot of our effort and analysis.

A lot of platforms, especially when it comes to CRMs, CMSs, and ERPs, are still built on PHP and MySQL, which I feel is archaic now and slow to query.

Room For Improvement

Auvik Network Management requires improvements in pricing, visualization, integrations, alert customization, reporting depth, dashboard customization, and performance.
Catchpoint requires UI simplification, improved automation, and better customization to address cost, security, and technical challenges.
Auvik Network Management (ANM) does not have server monitoring and server hardware monitoring, which LogicMonitor has, and these features make me continue to use LogicMonitor.
Network Administrator at i-level automatisering
When I have a new engineer on my team, I tell them to look at the topology, which is the network topology there. There is no need to draw with draw.io or Visio.
Senior Network Infrastructure Engineer at TIGER LOGIC
Improving root cause analysis that correlates alerts across connected devices would help administrators identify the underlying cause of an incident instead of investigating multiple related alerts individually.
Infrastructure Engineer at a consultancy with 1-10 employees
This is one area where I would like to see improvement in the tool because many applications nowadays use multi-factor authentication, and Catchpoint does lag a bit in providing the end-to-end synthetic observability for applications dependent on MFA.
Observability Architect at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
If we could receive similar data for the China market as we do for North America and Asia Pacific, this would be helpful.
Technical Consultant Project Lead at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
There is no auto-tuning for alerts, so auto-tuning features for alerts would be beneficial.
Support Engineer at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
 

Setup Cost

Auvik Network Management provides flexible pricing, charging for core devices, offering value in large environments despite some cost concerns.

Technician at Plainfield High School
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the pricing is good, and the licensing is also good.
Product Specialist at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
There is always a need to negotiate a bit more to get the best cost for the licenses we plan to buy.

Out of those features, the hop-by-hop breakdown of BGP peers is the one that made the biggest difference in my work because I have not seen this feature in others.
Manager, Observability Automation & Service Operations at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
The alerting functionality in Catchpoint provides value. We configure thresholds for response times and failures so that our operations team could be notified whenever authentication failed, APIs became unavailable, or page performance degraded beyond acceptable limits.

Manager, Technical Services at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
Real-time network visibility has transformed how we pinpoint LAN bottlenecks and resolve issues faster
The only area for improvement is pricing. Otherwise, the tool is great. I think the pricing is acceptable. If you are working with resellers, it makes it a little bit difficult sometimes for the reseller to be able to make too much, as the margin is not all that significant. However, we are not getting rid of Auvik Network Management (ANM). That is the only thing in my opinion that Auvik Network Management (ANM) can do a little bit better on—maybe just the pricing—but it is a great tool. We are not replacing it with anything and we are not removing it at all. It is a great tool, and we are able to monitor our own internal network as well as that of our customers. In most cases, we have not had any complaints about neither from my techs or from myself about its functionality, as it works really.
reviewer2867268 - PeerSpot reviewer
Observability Architect at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Proactive synthetic monitoring has reduced major incidents and provides global user experience insights
One thing that is not available is the multi-factor authentication feature concerning monitoring any applications. If an application depends upon MFA for its login flow, Catchpoint doesn't have the ability to bypass or monitor that flow for multi-factor authentication. This is one area where I would like to see improvement in the tool because many applications nowadays use multi-factor authentication, and Catchpoint does lag a bit in providing the end-to-end synthetic observability for applications dependent on MFA. This is one of the major areas needing improvement. Otherwise, Catchpoint has been one of the greatest tools in the synthetic monitoring or digital experience monitoring space, and I don't see anything else right now, but MFA is something that certainly needs some improvement.
