Improves infrastructure planning by helping us analyze network traffic
We use SevOne to collect and report on network flows SevOne improves infrastructure planning by helping us analyze network traffic. We can look at bandwidth for specific endpoints on the customer's network and analyze traffic to identify issues. For example, maybe some connectors are unavailable.…

Improved our IT efficiency and problem resolution capabilities but MDM integration needs improvement
A lot of it is the ability to tell me what the problem is, even if it's a hardware or software error. The diagnosis is really nice, and it's enough for my technician to arrive with the right parts to fix it the first time. We don't need that extra truck roll. The fact that it can tell us which part to take with us, the most likely part that we need to replace, is a huge benefit. From an internal IT perspective, the integrations are really easy. Most of them can be done by even a tier-one technician. It's very straightforward: you click where it tells you to click, you do what it tells you to do, and it works.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a great solution for highlighting and discovering useful information regarding our network's elements."
"The out of the box reports and workflows are pretty good and they meet our requirements well."
"Another useful feature is that SevOne gives you real-time insights into your network performance. It polls every five minutes. That is important for our customers because there are some network teams that are always monitoring their networks."
"We've had great feedback from our customers about SevOne support. They're willing to set up a remote session upon request. You have to go through three tiers of support with most vendors, and they ask a lot of screening questions before they will do a remote session. You need to spend a lot of time before an engineer will host a remote session to look at your problematic system."
"I like SevOne's network flow reporting."
"Scalability. I have never had to worry about how to handle really big environments."
"Its ability to monitor practically any type of network device via SNMP is most valuable. This is the main functionality that we're using. If a network device exposes a metric, such as interface utilization, SevOne will monitor it for us."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is the scale-up and scale-down. The scale-up is an operation where the CPU boosts-up and then the memory will boost-up. That works awesomely."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The stability is good. Our systems have been up for over two years without any stability issues."
"It is a product that is very easy to learn."
 

Cons

"Would benefit with the addition of AI modules for proactive data insights."
"We previously have had discussions on some reporting enhancements. So, we raised a feature request, which was delivered from SevOne."
"The GUI: both the dashboard/user view and the admin tool."
"The reporting of NMS is good, but it could be better."
"The reports are easy to configure but they are a bit outdated in terms of appearance and visualization."
"User-friendly, multi-tenancy."
"The tool needs improvement in non-Cisco SD-WAN."
"There are a lot of pain points. My main problem is that we don't have a high availability system. There are 20 peers. We're going to lose the end-of-life appliances that are old. If we lose a peer and it doesn't come back, we lose all that data. The reason we don't have high availability is because it's double the charge."
"In Kaseya, agents are shown as offline at times, and it is an area that is being improved."
"I would like to see MDM integration improved."
"At times, there is degradation in performance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are cheaper solutions available."
"The pricing has not evolved with the market, which is one of the reasons we are moving to a new product."
"Although I don't have exact details in terms of cost, my experience has been that SevOne is willing to make a deal with the customer."
"There are different options available for licensing, with the per-device option being more expensive but more flexible."
"The pricing has been fair."
"It is inexpensive compared to other monitoring tools."
"Have a bank of licenses, because it is about the number of objects (RAM, ports, CPU, etc.)."
"The tool is not expensive. We were able to negotiate with SevOne on pricing."
"Pricing is okay and negotiable."
"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
