Technical Specialist at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
The reports are fantastic and it's easy to use and update
The technical support is bad, primarily because I don't see anybody using it. I once had to rebuild the whole database when it died. I had to put in a new database and upgrade my system and do everything. Then it broke my database and they could not fix it. Now we work around it and it works fine.

Senior Systems Analyst at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Streamlines quick and effective drill-down into the network stack for better troubleshooting
I would like to see a web-based interface that mimics the ease of doing data traces, similar to something like a Wireshark which is a Windows-based network monitoring tool. Wireshark is fast. I'm an old Windows guy, it's what I know. I think the liability of NetMaster is having to do things through the panels. It's slow to generate traces, and when you're doing a real-time troubleshooting call - when you have to wait 30 seconds for a process to spawn and fire up in order to give data back - 30 seconds is a long time when there's an issue. The user interface is probably the biggest impediment to my success with it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice to others would be that, if they'd manage to sort out the indexing problem, it's a wonderful product to use."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the fact that it sends me canned reports. It's easy to use and easy to update."
"Stability is very good."
"This enables us to run monthly capacity planning reports to have an overall view of the status of our network."
"I'm particularly impressed with the stability, which is like a rock, and the fact that it has so much data on such a stable platform."
"Otherwise, I think it is one of the better network products out there."
"I consider NetMaster to be the best-of-breed for network."
"Stability-wise, the whole product runs great, especially with the automation; that's where it really shines."
"The most valuable features are SNA and IP monitoring, and it has been very easy to define many thresholds, including self-defining baselines."
"The support has been excellent. It is far and away the best among the products that our team supports."
 

Cons

"The technical support is bad, primarily because I don't see anybody using it."
"I would mainly like to see an overall view of the application and the infrastructure."
"I would like to see improved index shifting."
"It has limited reporting with only a few canned out-of-the-box reports."
"Overall performance of the application is slow."
"I would like to see a web-based UI (major effort now in progress)."
"I didn't think the SNMP function was easy to set up. That caused some problems with the address space."
"The automation part could use improvement, but I do not do that much with it."
"I would like to see new release migrations made easier."
"I think the liability of NetMaster is having to do things through the panels."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive program."
