What do you like best about the product?

I found Netbox quite fine in terms of performance and its functionality. It’s a hub of the full system which proactively ties everything together and can be used for documenting any business irrespective of its size. Documenting customers, managing all their Ips where they are coming from etc has become lightning fast by Netbox. Additionally, we found it relevant to track our devices and their installation location. Additionally, it makes journaling a matter of few clicks, all the notes/ comments can be accessed anytime.

I feel that it is not so intuitive, seems a bit complex to me and has a bit steeper learningcurve. Sometimes, it does not support complex scenarios which are difficult to model.

The functionality of seeing the status of all systems, and operational graphs. It assists with flowcharting, and itemizing our systems such as servers and data centers.

I wish there were more tools to create flow charts showing system backups and linking vendor contact information. If there was a toll showing where outages via vendors occured, such as a real-time live map, that would be helpful.

Organization such as Itemizing our Data Centers, and connection points.Virtualization is next for us to list our Virtual Machines. TO be able to see our CASB in real-time would be useful.
