"Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product."
"It's user friendly."
"The product gives us as much control as we can have by providing a complete picture of the whole set of Oracle products."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"The job subsystem, monitoring subsystem, alerting, grouping of targets, and reporting features are valuable to us."

"The Slack integration is fantastic, and I've actually found it to be very useful recently."
"Ability to create a dashboard inside software monitoring."
"It helps the entire organization become digitally enabled."
"There was only one feature I liked about PRTG Network Monitor a lot, and that was bandwidth monitoring, though, in the newer versions of the tool, that feature is now a bit lacking. Pricing for PRTG Network Monitor is also not as expensive. It's a good tool, even for beginners."
"The technical support seems to be quick, clever, and has a comprehensive knowledge base online, which is fantastic."
"The solution is very easy to use and the web provides information with ease."
"The solution provides us with needed feedback on our IT infrastructure. It gives us really good quality of service when it comes to monitoring of available space and available resources. It allows us to preempt issues before they become a problem for the business."
"The sensors and probes are great, nice and lightweight, they don't take up too many resources on the system. We just deploy them out and they start reporting instantly."
"The product is pretty comprehensive, but quite resource hungry. This might be due to the majority of the application seemingly being written in Java."
"My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now."
"The solution is not as simple as people say it is."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
"I would say mostly backup and recovery, through the Enterprise Manager. Or any corruptions, to be able to fix them through Enterprise Manager."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"I feel more dashboards can be added, especially those useful to higher levels of IT management."
"RMAN tools need improvement."
"The solution has to evolve as an end-to-end monitoring solution. It has to do better at understanding the application at the deepest level."
"PRTG Network Monitor needs to show bandwidth utilization in proper graphs. It isn't easy to learn."
"They could improve the process of updating the license."
"The clustering aspect needs improvement, as there is a bit of confusion about you do when hit that 5000 probe mark."
"I wouldn't mind better categories for the sensors. When I go to add a new sensor for a new device, there are some categories in there already, and they can be filtered out, but there's quite a large pool of sensors... When I want to go in and find something quite specific, I have got to scroll down and scroll down to find what I'm actually looking for,"
"PRTG does not allow us to scan devices like we can scan software or another problem in it. Also, I cannot draw graphical graphs in Woodview/look. Another problem is that we cannot draw a good diagram in PRTG."
"The technical support service should be improved."
"I would like to see more updates available in this solution."
