NPM is an excellent monitoring tool for any size network. Whilst it is easy for anyone to use, it is very powerful in the information it supplies. Both in graphical and report formats.

NPM. THE monitoring solution!
What do you like best about the product?
This is a very highly customizable product, while it maintains its ease of use. The web interface is amazing and everything is running on Windows OS. SolarWinds has a strong user community (Thwack) where custom templates and solutions can be found. Using custom properties allows for a complete dynamic structure and automation of monitoring and administering nodes
What do you dislike about the product?
Complex licensing model, it would be good to see more integrations to other products, CMDBs in particular.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to determine any current issues with the infrastructure and also benefit from pre-active alerting. Capacity planning is another big plus as well as reporting to determine any bottlenecks in our network. It is also great that VM monitoring is offered out of the box, we were able to solve several Virtualization-related issues before they come up to the surface!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have a complete inventory of the infrastructure that you plan to monitor to make management even easier. Joining the Thwack community is also beneficial to gain from real users' experience! The admin guide is a bit bulky but worth reviewing if any issues occur.
So easy to use

NPM comes pretty much ready to go. It's easy to set up and get value out of immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't say there's anything I dislike as of yet.

We use SAM and NPM for basic server monitoring . It was easy to configure and the default templates had us up and running in no time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely try the 30 day trial and see for yourself how good and easy to use this app is.
