Avis clients sur PRTG Network Monitor

- Very good and intuitive interface.
- Possibility of creation of huge amount of sensors.
- Has big quantity of features. For example, Syslog, NetFlow.
- Possibility of creations very customizable Dashboards.

- Price per-sensor is quite high
- Not all necessary sensors are built in. For example, BGP peering sensors.

The large number of monitoring operations on the servers and the availability of options to monitor and clarify cloud services in detail
It is an integrated control panel and you can control the number of seconds and services of the machine
And it divides them for you into categories such as the machines that are hosted on the ESXI and puts them in a separate group and so on.
The interface is excellent, clear and fast, unlike some other programs
It is characterized by its work on the local server without the need for a separate machine.

A little slow in the hardware check process
Guidance messages cover some important buttons, which prevents them from being noticed.
Some errors are not clear, such as when I ask to monitor the Memory and Hardisk, the error is not clear if it is in the Port or the Authentication process or even the Firewall, so I hope to detail the errors to facilitate their solution.
There is no monitoring of Ping in the form of a list and the form of a tree, it is difficult to monitor all devices on one page.

easy to set up, has good potential

Crashes and is glitchy, could use some work.

reliability, this is the software for telling me what is happening over the network, so it must need to very accurate and reliable that i can trust on and react to it.

backup is a big headache still, and no easy way to do it. i would prefer automation on this area.Dashboard are not easy to me. so I just click on device page instead of staying in dashboard

Easy to install, Easy to use, Easy to deploy Sonde

Nothing.Nothing.Nothing.Nothing.Nothing.

Not only did we appreciate the depth and capabilities of the product, but also the customization and granularity of it, allowing us to view the same source information and alerts in different ways. You can receive emails and from there automate your Service Management tools, but the possibility of creating complementary and customized dashboards that we can place on a big screen in our IT room is great.

No real complaints, I did what we needed and way more.

accurate and in-depth network bandwidth analysis. with drill down option to detect and troubleshoot exact issues causing bandwidth utilization issues. solved many hidden issues after implementing this tool. powerful integration with any vendor.

apart from bandwidth monitoring and network analysis other features are not good enough. application is not complete as 1 stop solution for everything related to network and server monitoring, many features and not integrated with each other

Real time monitoring with alerts for all network devices connected to my network with about 50000 sensors for about 4000+ devices connected on the network. Map showing devices with alters or warning.

No Central maps combined on ITOPS servers with multiple core servers connected.

Easy to use product, very powerful, great support!

Nothing at all. I've had issues in previous versions, such as with performance, but everything gets resolved over time.

Easy to use and very complete! It's really easy to deploy and manage.Great platform for IT Pros and non IT Pros.

Map designer must be changed, is so hard to use! To create a simple tittle the customer need to know HTML? why?! Microsoft visio have this figure it out at least 10 years ago.I know you can to better :DOverall, best platform ever!

This software allows the user to monitor a wide variety of different sensors on a large scale customizable equipment spec. The graphs are easily manipulated and can benefit the user by visualizing the fault/issue being investigated.

My company has since parted with the software due to other systems being more cost affective however, I still believe it should be good value for your buck considering the features are getting.

This monitoring application has helped us stay on track of what is happening at every corner and for every device on our network, from Storage to network, security and usage statistics and notifications for each, this application has saved us many times in restoring and fixing problems before they get noticed by end users. From our desk and our our phones using the app, we can monitor and get visibility into many device types, including Cisco, Linux, storage systems, Microsoft operating systems just to name a few, with thousands of sensors to choose from. Very powerful and constantly improving.

While just a few sensors were not performing well, like the Ping 30 for Cisco 1900 routers, PRTG has constantly released new updates that once applied, these issues are rectified.

-The free version allows up to 100 sensors to be included on his interface. This feature helps allot of companies IT departments to monitor and compare without limitations.
-Easy installation process for core app, available for SNMP devices (almost every tech device has this option).
-Add devices for a monitor it's easier than other competitors because its agent less and his auto discover feature make deployment process fast and secure.
-Available as web interface with every OS and app for the most important devices (iOS and Android).

-User guide needs to be adapted for none IT users.
-Reports need an experienced partner to customize executive options.
-Customer Support it's not the best part of this company, sometimes take days to solve an issue that would take minutes on other monitoring software.

This software is quite easy and intuitive to set up and use. We have done the installation on our own and have been since then really happy with it. PRTG scans our infrastructure and notifies immediately when something goes wrong. Whenever we install new systems, we look at PRTG and set some basic sensors for each important service, and we are all set. it's a work of a few minutes, you can get most needs coevered with little effort

the web based UI is much better now, but could still be improved a bit in the usability. selecting multiple objects is a bit awkward and not intuitive. some sensors are buggy and we have stopped using them. but that's only a very low percentage of the total

Very wide variety of sensors for monitoring of various applications from SQL servers to custom scripts to ping to SNMP and WMI. Can be configured in a distributed configuration to spread out the load that the sensors place on a monitoring server or to consolidate WAN traffic between the central host and branch offices. Can be setup in a cluster for ultra high capacity server. Very robust selection of reports available with the ability to create custom reports. Beautiful Android client with push notifications. If you are looking for a monitoring solution this need be your one and only stop.

Support can be a little slow to respond often taking a day to respond via email. Only Windows hosts can be used as full sensor probes.

Easy to Setup
Extensive Reporting and alert management

Learning curve -- Takes time to get acclimatize

The basic features work as they should. I have never had any SNMP issues with getting results from my devices. Also I have never had any false positives for these sensors.

The architecture makes it easy to deploy. No agent, just a probe which sends data to a core server.

If you want to go out-of-the box there is a big chance of false positives.

Deploying custom sensors is very labor-intensive work.

You can monitor the different types of devices you use in detail with their own mib and oidlib files.

You need to get mib and oidlib files from open sources or device manufacturers. I expect the software to provide more support.

The setup of the monitor is very easy, allowing you to customise the deployment and scanning options. There are so many different sensors available you will be certain to find the one you need.

It can be overwhelming to see all of the sensors when you do an auto-scan, you just need to realise that you probably don't need to monitor them all and it's better to rather pick and choose the ones that most relevant to your need.

I can monitor the components of the network in real time, one of the most important points is that the alarms that are sent by mail are personalized, you can locate the threshold you want to send and as often as required. We have monitors of all the components and in seconds we know which is alarmed, and we can solve the problem before it becomes serious and stop the operations.

Change the design of the emails is a bit complex, you had to use an external tool to improve the presentation of the emails.

PRTG offers a wealth of information about your network. This software will monitor every aspect of your IT infrastructure. Everything you wanted to know about your network is now available to you, including a few things you may not have thought of.

There is so much information available, learning your way around the interface can be a bit daunting until you're up to speed.

Helps us keep tabs on all of our network equipment.

I don't have any cons to report. We've had a great overall experience for many years.

Ease of use, upgrade process, support, forums, number of sensors, types of sensors, maps and ability to share public, sensor customization, notifications

Some sensors are complex making them hard to implement

PRTG (peassler) has many ways to detect and monitor devices. I like the SNMP and ping feature the most.

The interface was a little weird to understand at first. However, I had to find how to add users and groups for alerts. But once you add some devices and start getting alerts, things were great.

Very easy to install and discover devices on the network. Autodiscovery is a breeze! Dashboards are great too.

It's important to manage authentication in a way which is logical. It can become a bit fiddly to manage multiple access accounts.
