"In terms of network visibility, Statseeker can be very granular. We can tell it exactly where we want it to go and where we want it to check, or it can do an SNMP walk and find out where everything is. It's very detailed."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The integration with the APIs and the web servers deployed can definitely be improved."
"It would be nice to have a test to check if you can access a particular device via API without installing it and waiting for a poll cycle. You should have the capacity to initiate a test to see if it was reachable and get the results almost immediately."
"The dashboard of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"An area for improvement would be the use of modular licenses, which are not practical for big clients."
"Robustness of network element mapping tool could be better"

"The aesthetic widgets should be dynamic widgets, so the customization can be even more customizable."
"Being able to detect devices that are trying to connect wirelessly would make using this solution much easier."
"I'd say the interface could improve a little bit. I find with new users, I tend to have to spend a bit of time walking them through how to use the interface. It could be a little more user friendly."
"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"The main issue I've seen, in the last six months to a year, is when I upgrade I seem to be hitting bugs. The upgrade won't go smoothly and I have to engage support. These things happen when you upgrade, it's not the end of the world, but from a stability point of view, the only time I've so far, is during upgrades."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."
"The inclusion of configuration management features and SIP links would improve this solution."
"Detailed data can be hard to extract in CSV form. Sometimes, being able to dump down raw data would be good so various time periods across a longer period could be analysed. At present, data can be presented within Statseeker, but there is lots of "white space" between data points."
"More private MIB object support, such as WAN optimisation performance and wireless, would be helpful."
