Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Alerting precision has reduced incident response times and improved department-level network visibility
The auto-pause sensor during the maintenance window is good without any false alerts, and it prevents me from getting flooded with alerts during planned maintenance, helping department heads understand their own network usage better. It has reduced incident response time by giving clearer ownership of each alert, ensuring alerts go to the proper recipient. SNMP testers and auto-pause are among the best features of PRTG Network Monitor, which is particularly useful for different departments such as HR and finance, where alerts can be filtered accordingly. The alerting features and dashboard of PRTG Network Monitor are very helpful, especially in our industry. However, the dashboard can look cluttered on smaller screens, which is one negative aspect. PRTG Network Monitor has impacted us positively; we have stopped getting flooded with alerts during planned maintenance or unplanned outages. Compared to others, this gives specific alerts very quickly and helps department heads understand their own network usage better, thus reducing incident response time so that each alert has clear ownership.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"Every monitoring session features similar capabilities."
"The solution is scalable."
"PRTG has improved our visibility and response time to issues related to remote sites."
"It is pretty simple to use, which is always a good thing. It's been very reliable in updating us if any issues crop up."
"It is easy to use and intuitive, which is really important. It does what it says on the box by giving you a visual of the state of what is going on at any one time."
"The real-time monitoring and alerting are its most valuable features."
"The product is easy to use and the web interface is fantastic."
"Stable solution for monitoring networks and bandwidth, with multiple functions and features such as NetFlow Collector, graphical monitoring, etc."
 

Cons

"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"Along with more room for automation, more room for advanced configuration can be integrated into the solution."
"We would like more cloud native sensors for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc. A lot of businesses are moving in that direction, so having something where we can pull performance stats out of these cloud services would be great for us."
"I've encountered a challenge in my functions, particularly in adding and printing."
"Sometimes, our PRTG Network Monitor system crashes and a lot of sensors go down."
"This solution is a good product so far, but I haven't been using it long enough to know how it could be improved."
"PRTG Network Monitor can improve Layer 2 and Layer 3 network maps and the GUI more user-friendly. Additionally, they should bundle the features so I can monitor everything on one particular device."
"With custom sensors, there is a lot of work which needs to be done in the background, just for it to be tailor-made for the specific thing that we are actually monitoring. We take a lot of time with the custom sensors. I would like to see the customer sensor be more robust and a bit more varied."
"When using PRTG Network Monitor it is beneficial if you have prior experience with it, the user interface could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of PRTG Network Monitor is reasonable."

"We have an unlimited license for this solution."
"I rate the licensing for PRTG Network Monitor an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is okay and it is cheaper than some competing products."
"It's a cost-efficient tool."

"I'm paying something like €1000 per year for the maintenance. I've got unlimited sensors."
