Network Monitor complete, number 1
What do you like best about the product?
Solarwinds has a wide and detailed configuration, to perform a high-level monitoring, all kinds of networks, ethernet, ISDN, TCP, UDP and many more, has a powerful tool that detects all kinds of faults, from the deepest of the network, detecting possible future failures that may affect the full operation of the network, verify all types of digital signals emitted by the network, and convert them into graphic data, understandable to any person, creating a simple and accurate monitoring environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial monitor takes hours, to create a complete report, because the analysis needs a couple of hours to complete in its entirety, the monitoring process can be somewhat slow, and waste time necessary work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Thanks to this application, we can avoid all types of leaks in the LAN network thanks to the monitoring and detection of timely failures, providing a complete service, with a percentage of minimum cuts, which are almost undetectable for our users, being an indispensable tool for the good operation of all types of internet networks in any company, we detect failures that have helped us to improve our entire infrastructure, significantly improving access to the internet in dead spots, or with weak signals, which caused continuous cuts in other sectors, due to the flow incorrect signal.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
the analysis times, and the subsequent creation of reports, must be markedly reduced, and the final report must be a little less complex, so that it is easy to understand, for novice users, who just start with the use of the program.

The complete web performance package.
What do you like best about the product?
WPM gives us great insight into the availability and performance of our websites ensuring high customer satisfaction. With the detailed statistics and history records, it helps you see why problems arose and how best to combat them. The built in alerting brings issues to our attention and helps us rectify them before the customer even realises there was a problem.
What do you dislike about the product?
WPM's cost for multiple or larger websites which rely on more 'transactions' or locations can become expensive if websites are not generating income themselves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WPM helps to avoid downtime, keep customer satisfaction high and saves time diagnosing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If concerned over performance or availability for multiple or vital website then WPM can help. If you're not mangaing many sites or are not concerned to much about performance, then it's probably not going to be cost effective.
Under the Hood Visibility
What do you like best about the product?
SRM from Solarwinds is another great product. We have purchased all of the Orion products and integrated them, including DPA. We're able to link SRM and DPA together, thus linking databases to storage, giving a single pane of glass view of the relationship between our storage and databases. Italso provides excellent capacity planning and the reporting elements are also great.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had issues during deployment, in terms of linking our Dell Compellents into SRM. Sometimes the SAN would insert fine, but then stop working a day later. We raised the issue with Solarwinds but didnt really get very far. We would have to stop and start the controller services to regain visibility of the metrics. This is not ideal, obviously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had no visibility of our SANS in terms of workloads, IOPS, IO and general capacity planning. SRM solved all of these issues. We're now able to correlate performance issues across the infrastructure using SRM.
