Great support

Solar winds is amazing for keeping all your clients up and running. We have been able to stop problems before they were huge issues because of the monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard is laid out in what I consider to be an unconventional way, but it's tolerable.

Almost real time alerts of system failures, to aid in call volumes coming in.

It Monitor applications in the cloud via an agent and by using information from your cloud provider's APIs

Performance monitoring at another level
What do you like best about the product?
SolarWinds Server and Application Monitor allows monitoring to become much more than traditional monitoring. With SAM you can see the actual performance of the applications - what the end user experiences, not just what's happening on the hardware. There are many built in monitors so getting started is actually very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
SAM is simple to set up, but can be complex to fully implement. This is actually a feature and a good aspect of the system, but can be difficult or discouraging for new users to the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We now monitor what the users see. In other monitoring solutions you can see metrics on the servers and up/down status, but not really see performance. With SAM we get both.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Download the free trial and see for yourself.
SAM Does It All
What do you like best about the product?
Out of the box, you are ready to monitor your entire network. The agentless design makes it easy to deploy across your network
What do you dislike about the product?
Monitoring your entire environment may require multiple pollers There is a limit of 12,000 components per poller, which can be used up quickly depending upon what is being monitored.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to monitor all servers, their application status, and hardware components with a single tool
Monitoring for any and all applications
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of the custom script monitors opens up the world for my app metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of real-time polling capabilities without agents
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We monitor all of our infrastructure applications through URL checks, service and process monitors, performance monitoring, log file parsing, and custom *nix and PowerShell scripts for everything else.
Great tool for knowing what's going on in your environment
What do you like best about the product?
You can customize what you want to monitor and how, and also set up notifications for specific events.
What do you dislike about the product?
Depending on the size and complexity of your environment it can take awhile to fine tune it to do what you want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed something to help us catch potential problems before they started to affect production servers and applications, such as low disk space or issues with SQL databases. SAM allows us to be notified about these so we can address them before they have a negative impact on our end users.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's definitely worth trying a demo.
Feature Rich
What do you like best about the product?
Keeps track of my servers and testbeds. The analytic tools are a great bonus and the software is constantly improving and expanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't fault the software, it does exactly what we need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use a variety of virtualization platforms and having one tool that monitors all our products saves time and money.
Loggly makes API log management seamless.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see every API request and what the result was. If it was an error you can also see the stack trace if that was part of the response. Filtering also makes finding certain requests a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
The website can be really slow and clunky at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
API request logs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It makes organizing all your requests and their results a breeze. I totally recommend it.
SolarWinds keeps me informed
What do you like best about the product?
Solarwinds has many great features, you have the NetFlow options which breaks down and categorize all of you network traffic that is monitored. You can run needed reports and get all the information you need
What do you dislike about the product?
I think they should work on the overall look of the program, integrate more features into the SolarWinds NPM suite. There is not much that you can dislike , because it is so robust and easy to use once you figure it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We monitor network devices, traffic and critical hardware. It is great because as soon as something goes down we get an alert.
