Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature.""We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The AI is the best feature in this solution.""I like that it provides an overall view of our network. From the topology view to every event, we can view it. We can also see the interface utilization for future capacity planning. It fits our use case and environment.""The solution is stable.""It's good for root cause analysis for network problems and network link problems.""It is straightforward to configure, and you can quickly gather data from your infrastructure.""A highly scalable solution."

More DX NetOps Pros →

"From a network point of view, we can see the state of the network, as well as bandwidth usage and downtime.""PRTG is simple to manage. First, you can create a template for a device, then apply it to hundreds of similar devices. That's a great advantage.""The most valuable feature of PRTG Network Monitor is the dashboards. We can check to see the resources and the uptime.""The most valuable feature is the dashboard interface. It's very clean, it's very simple to use.""My opinion is that this solution is not very expensive.""The best feature is that it lets me know what is going on. I need to know if something has gone down, I need to know if something is running very slowly. PRTG tells me that.""The bandwidth monitoring is a very attractive feature, it can tell you the bandwidth utilization while it is attempting to connect to the host for feedback.""The real-time monitoring and alerting are its most valuable features."

Cons
"The technical support needs improvement.""The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"The hardware requirements can be improved.""Technical support could be more responsive.""One improvement that could make the product better is to streamline its modules into a more cohesive solution.""It would be better if they had an NFA network analysis feature. We appreciate features like extended network security for bucket flows, but it would be better to have some IDs, IPS functionalities, DDoS, or something like that.""Lacks dashboards and better integration with other solutions.""Technical support needs to be better. They need to be more knowledgeable and responsive."

More DX NetOps Cons →

"Users need to buy the more expensive licenses if they expect to be able to scale.""PRTG access works best from the web GUI. There are dedicated apps on Windows/Android/iOS, but they are slow and don’t work as well as the web GUI.""We run it in a cluster, so we have two that run together. The cluster behind it is sketchy at times.""In terms of sensors and probes, it would be really cool if PRTG had a purely Azure-based solution. We had to install a probe on one of our cloud servers and then let that probe out from there. It would be really cool if it just monitored Azure without having to install something on the device.""Along with more room for automation, more room for advanced configuration can be integrated into the solution.""While the desktop app is good, they could slightly improve it. We would like it to be a single pane of glass. At the moment, you can only see certain portions of information. You have to scroll through to make it more granular. We want them to develop the desktop app to be more user-friendly.""Sometimes, our PRTG Network Monitor system crashes and a lot of sensors go down.""PRTG Network Monitor could improve the price."

    I have researched a quite a few network monitoring tools which can be used for various monitoring purposes of not only the servers, but the intermediate routers as well. There are majorly three types of these softwares. Ones which are completely open-source, you can do almost anything you want using these, but they require quite some expertise before you can use them. Then there are the ones that are not open source, the enterprise softwares and cost you some money, but on the other hand, they are extremely easy to set-up and learn. You can have them up and running in a matter of minutes. And then there are those which are completely cloud based. They can be free of cost or charge some money depending on the software. The good thing about these is that you don’t have to install any extra software, and it can be managed completely online but then again these have limited features and you cannot exploit them to the full extent as you can do with the open-source and to some extent the enterprise software, so I won’t suggest you to use these, because these are generally not the complete solutions and require other support software to achieve the same.
