Avaliações do PRTG Network Monitor

Ferramenta atende a todas as nossas necessidades no que se refere a monitoramento de rede.

Inicialmente complexo de entender e localizar as funções, depois de algum tempo usando fica mais fácil.

- 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.

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

The thing I like most about this software is the feature set, many options to monitor and collect data including reporting and alerting.

The thing I like least about this software is the interface, so busy it hurts the eyes to look at over time. Trys to cram too much into a single page.

Easy to configure and add the devices, dashboard is excellent, stable application in very in expensive cost compair to the other appliances

May not be scalable in very very large environment.

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!

-Breadth of sensor types available. I can monitor almost everything in my infrastructure, from Azure to 365 to on prem, Server and network Hardware, Windows / linux services and OS data.
-Very customisable in how the above is monitored and Alerted upon
-Easy Creation of Dashboards and Libraries of particular sensor types, for instant visibility.

-Some areas have yet to come to PRTG for example - Azure AKS monitoring, K8s monitoring.
-Takes time to mould it into doing what you want (but once you've put in the work it is truly excellent)
-Some parts of the GUI could have better multi editing capabilities for sensors.

The free version of PRTG network monitor that comes with 100 sensors allows you to do an in-depth analysis of the sensors available, notifications, architecture, monitoring capabilities etc... to determine if it meets your company's needs. The graphical interfaces, intuitive dashboards, and ease of setup and creating templates and inheritance across devices and types allows for easy use and administration.

it can get expensive the more devices and sensors you continue to add to the platform so use your trial to evaluate wisely how you will implement and for what types of devices. the auto discovery can be nice but also tends to clutter up things.

With OID numbers, it can monitor the status of the hardware found on the device. It is informed by the determined threshold value.
PRTG product can be easily managed due to its compatibility with all brands and devices.
We monitor it by integrating it with the switch router access point devices we use.

I would like to make visual monitoring by creating the topologies of the sensors I created, this subject can be developed. There is nothing difficult about the product. It is also easy to integrate with our business processes.

easy to use, lot of sensors, easy to implement, probes over internet

Geo maps show sensors and devices but colors don't allow good visibility

PRTG has a lot of customization ability and can monitor almost anything with the right know how. From very simple stuff like SNMP to script based monitoring and alerting this software can do anything. The reporting and alerting are great and does the job very weel.

The scale of the program is not the best at time. Unless you have a full licenses to monitor anything you must be "choosy" as to what you monitor. In addition executing the same monitor over and over is not easy to do "automatically" or via scripting like other tools so it can get cumbersome.

PRTG network monitor works wonderfully. They have a wide range of monitoring elements, from SNMP to SQL Server checks. The software auto updates which is great and I've configured it to send me monthly reports on downtime for certain systems. The general reporting is great and I can keep a lot of uptime history on all my systems and services.

PRTG takes a little bit to get set up and dialed in to operate efficiently but it's worth the time. If you don't have the parent-child relationships configured correctly it's easy to get bombarded with messages of downtime.

Easy installation, extremely low learning curve, highly customizable, best category map editor, simple and clean appearance.

Really does not have many cons ... Its only disadvantage and not having support for running on linux.

it has support for all monitoring protocols.
it has builtin templates for most commonly used devices.
it has a tree like structure in which devices can be arranged and connected to each other in a hierarchy.
the magic map feature is a great option to view entire network at a glance.

the free version has very less number of nodes supported and it should be increased.
it does not support netflow with juniper srx devices.
migrating a server to a new system or VM is very complex and lengthy.

This software makes it very easy to determine if any node is down on our network. It also has TONS of additional features to monitor bandwidth usage, CPU usage, memory usage, etc., on each node selected if desired. It makes it very simple to know when a server, switch, or wireless AP is down in a matter of seconds with it's email push feature.

This software is quite difficult to grasp. Since it has SO many features, it also has tons of options to set, but can be picked up by an IT admin in a couple hours if time and effort is put forth.

The wide variety of sensors and ability to create custom sensors and even automate the recovery of issues on servers with powershell scripts.

The dashboard/map making feature has been difficult for us to create what we want.

Love the variety of sensors available for various platforms. Email and in-browser alerts are extremely useful.

GUI can be clunky at times, although it has improved greatly over the last few years.

PRTG network monitoring is fairly straight forward to configure and even easier to deploy sensors for monitoring components., unlike some other competing products. The reporting and dashboards are comprehensive visually, without being too overloaded with information. Support is very good.

It is easy to overload the probes, which caused it to shoot out multiple alert messages for different sensors. Had to scale out my deployment, which I had not planned for.

- It allows me to reliably monitor dozens of aspects about my servers.
- It lets me fix problems proactively instead of being notified about problems by my customers.
- It lets me sleep in peace knowing that everything is ok.

- Alerting could be more reliable and more versatile, I am using iLert for that

It is a good tool that helps you to have monitored all the elements of your network, regardless of the distributor or network layer in which you are. it helps you not only monitor the team's status but also the performance of it

despite being a good tool if you have the license, you can not have more than 100 sensors.
they give you scale functions in each sensor that can help you and at the same time confuse you or you lose appreciation of what you really want to see
