Infraon IMS and Auvik Network Management compete in the IT management tools category. Based on feature comparisons, Infraon IMS has the upper hand due to its extensive customization capabilities and stable environment.

Features: Infraon IMS provides a stable environment with comprehensive customization options, facilitating seamless integration and role-based dashboards. It also offers detailed monitoring, configuration backup, and alert features that don't require extensive expertise. Auvik Network Management excels in network discovery and monitoring, has an intuitive user interface, and offers various integrations with other platforms, providing excellent alerting and network visibility, along with remote access through its terminal.

Room for Improvement: Infraon IMS would benefit from integrating AI-driven predictions, enhancing its graphical interface, and offering more robust reporting.

Network automation has reduced troubleshooting time and supports faster issue resolution

The biggest and best feature I have experienced with Auvik Network Management (ANM) is automatic network discovery, along with features such as topology map, instant alerts, real-time monitoring, easy remote access, and simple dashboards. Among those features, I find automatic network discovery to be the most useful because it gives a clear picture of the entire network without having to create manual diagrams. It is very easy to use Auvik Network Management (ANM), so even a new team member can quickly understand the network because everything is displayed in a very clear way. Auvik Network Management (ANM) has positively impacted our organization by reducing troubleshooting time, improving network visibility, providing a very clear picture, and helping us support multiple client networks and environments very efficiently. We have noticed a 35 to 40% improvement in troubleshooting speed, less manual work in documenting any network system, faster responses to network issues, and better uptime with the client networks.

GTM Manager at a computer software company with 201-500 employees

Our process efficiency has improved by having all the information in one place, which has reduced manpower

The product is great. We integrated the ticketing tool with the monitoring tool. The agent ID creation is very easy when using this tool. It is so user-friendly. The user interface is good and also the pricing is great. The user interface is good, even a business user or layman can raise a ticket. They provide an all-in-one monitoring tool. If an issue happens, it gets integrated with the email, then proactively that ticket is being raised, which is good. The reporting is good. It is very clear. It is a customized report; however you want it, you can customize it. We use the solution’s role-based dashboards. The head of IT wants to use it so he can see holistically what is happening, e.g., what are the tickets being raised, what is a major issue, and what escalations are happening. There are different dashboards that are customized. For our head of IT, we made a separate dashboard. Then, for the executives, we made a separate dashboard based on time, like hourly or daily. All these reports were customized. While they didn't provide a BI dashboard, they provide a kind of graphical dashboard for whatever the issue is. Once you click on a particular ticket, it drills down to the issue, what it is and when the issue was raised. The drill down is good. It is more like a business intelligence (BI) tool. You can just scroll and zoom in. It goes deep into the issue. Once you click a particular dashboard, it will take you to the next page, then it takes you to the issue. Infraon IMS provides workflow automation for real-world use cases. This makes our work easier. It is just drag and drop (no coding) to build the workflows. For example, a particular ticket is being raised. It gets routed to three important IT executives within our team. From our team, it gets routed to the next level. The learning curve is good. Initially, there were no issues. As soon as the users saw the product, they understood what the product was. There wasn't any kind of training required for this product because it is very straightforward.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Auvik Network Management has definitely helped reduce business disruptions related to network issues."

"The network mapping, the logical layout, is the part that I love the most, showing what switch is connected to what switch. I couldn't live without it. That is the big selling point for me."

"And the visibility into remote and distributed networks globally was one of the reasons we moved to Auvik."

"It is pretty responsive to whether things are up or down."

"Being able to back up switch configurations through Auvik Network Management is an absolute necessity. It really helps us."

"Their technical support has been crazy good."

"Auvik has a dynamic mapping feature. Once you get things loaded, it will show you how everything is connected. It also shows the alerts on that map, making it a very quick and human-readable way to dig into it. Overall, that visualization is really nice, especially the dynamic facet."

"My favorite feature so far is the alerts section. We've got our main company at the top, and then all of our customers are underneath that. We can either filter by a single customer or one of their sites specifically, or look at it from the top down and see the whole picture. It's an easy way for me to be able to have a high-level overview. I can see the status of all of our sites simultaneously without having to really dig in and get super granular, unless I want to."

More Auvik Network Management (ANM) pros

"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product."

"Overall, it's a wonderful one-stop ITSM solution for infrastructure."

"We have definitely seen ROI since we first implemented Infraon, three years ago, as it has given us clarity and helped us with compliance during audits."

"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."

"With Infraon, everything is already built-in so you are able to plug-and-play with the system."

"The feature that I like the most and the best part is the customization."

"Their discovery is very quick and they have a CSV file upload mechanism that allows you to onboard five thousand devices a day."

"Once we installed this central system, our site engineers who provide the data started believing in the data's accuracy."

More Infraon IMS pros

Cons

"Because we can't monitor as we would like, we aren't introducing anything more to the platform at the moment."

"Auvik's network map along with its dashboard gives a real-time picture of our network. However, if a device is unreachable, there is no indicator for that, at least from what I have seen. If it is offline, there is an indicator for that, but if it is unreachable, there is no indicator."

"For pulling up the devices, the dashboard is a little bit sluggish. I know there is a lot of data, and I am starting to get nitpicky here, but this is the only thing. The dashboard is a little sluggish, and you have to keep the filter on sometimes."

"The mapping automatically finds all the interfaces but tags some of them incorrectly. For instance, if it can't find how a CPU interface is connected, it will use the MAC address last seen on the router and sometimes attribute cloud-connected devices to the route, but it's not actually there. That's not a true connection."

"I would prefer a simplified dashboard in Auvik Network Management (ANM) because it can be challenging for new users to interpret all the provided data."

"The price shouldn't be an issue for a larger organization, but a smaller organization or an MSP might struggle because the billing is per device. You're paying for your firewalls and devices that appear on the network. If you have a smaller organization with an extensive network, your revenue won't be able to support that cost. That's probably the biggest downside for me."

"We have a firewall with devices behind it. When that firewall goes offline, we get alerts for it and the 10 devices behind it. There should be a way to set up a dependency so that when the firewall goes down, Auvik bundles it up and sends it at the same time. That would reduce the noise in our email. We don't want to get 11 alerts because one firewall went down. We just want one alert saying that all the devices under the firewall are also offline."

"Implementing a configurable dashboard for the network map would enhance user experience in this regard."

More Auvik Network Management (ANM) cons

"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets."

"Technical support could use some improvement in terms of their response times and diagnostic accuracy."

"I would like to have the option to add a new device or meet with the next release. Right now, it needs to be done from the backend which results in a heavy reliance on R&D."

"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."

"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets. There are GDPR and other requirements that might require country-specific sensitive information to be filtered as well as other things that need to be taken care of. Normally, if we need to do any compliance, like ISO27000 compliance, they don't have such a report within their system. This kind of report is missing from their SaaS. That is one of the reasons that we have gone to the on-prem version, where I am assured that my data is secure."

"I would like to see an integrated view of Infraon IMS and Infraon Desk. It would be very helpful if that were integrated into the solution."

"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."

"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable, neither exceptionally cheap nor excessively expensive—it aligns well with what I anticipated."

"The cost for all the devices that we were billed at in my last job was about $2500 annually. It wasn't much. It has the most reasonable pricing as compared to any product out there. I can't complain. It is amazing. It allows me to bundle inside the package what I charge customers per user per month. I don't charge them per device anymore. That's not how we do things in the industry. It is per user per month. The way Auvik is charging us allows me to do it. For example, if they charge $250 for a certain number of seats, I'm just going to write the costs onto per user per month. I have a few leftover licenses to use, which allows me to go out and make some more sales and give some freebies at some shows. So, it makes me very flexible. I am very happy with it. It is billed by network devices. You could choose which billable device you want. What is really nice is that if you don't want one switch to be billable and the other one to be billable, you can do that. You just won't have the features that the billable switch has, which isn't horrible. Sometimes, you don't need that. What I'm really happy about is that Auvik doesn't force things on you and doesn't say, "You have to have all of this," and that's a great business model."

"We have licenses per year. It is on a network device, so we pay for switches and firewalls. Everything else is included, e.g., computers, access points, and printers."

"The pricing is fair for the value and time saved that you get out of it. The larger you go, the more sense it makes per device, because as you hit different pricing tiers, it becomes much more affordable per device."

"The pricing is kind of steep, but it's worth the price. There's no beating around the bush. It's an expensive solution, but it's really the best solution there is for us."

"I don't think Auvik's pricing should be based on device, which it is right now. I don't know what their market share is or how they compete with Domotz, but if they want to stay competitive, Auvik should have simpler pricing."

"Auvik is a good product and worth the premium price tag for a lot of people."

"The pricing is by device. We have 75 devices, which is a little more than we really need. With school and volume discounts, it is still a little over $16,000 annually. Our WiFi access points are not being billed, but all our switches and routers are."

More Auvik Network Management (ANM) pricing and cost advice

"The cost model is within our budget. I have less than 180 critical assets, but the moment that I have 1,000 assets, then the license model is totally different. I don't know whether they are capable of handling that kind of a load. They could revisit the licensing model."

"We pay for a number of devices on the accounts and since it is on-premises, we pay the maintenance charges for the year."

"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product. We evaluated five to six products and finally felt Infraon was better because of the pricing model, especially because it was more flexible."

"I think that the pricing for this solution is reasonable and varies by number of devices."

"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."

"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
