Very Little sneaks by with SolarWinds watching

  • March 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Essentially a complete list of items which can be monitored on many servers, really allows for a "if I haven't seen a message, must be ok" stance.

It's a bit "chatty" at times, takes a bit of fine tuning to get it to a point of informative while avoiding the Boy who Cried Wolf syndrome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Downtime is anticipated and avoided as much as possible. Proactive maintenance is possible.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It works well for us, give it a try.

A very complete virtualization environment

  • February 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has a pretty intuitive control panel. If you review your options, you realize that you can easily monitor and customize the virtual machine and its status. In this way it becomes easier to control and review any changes that occur in them.

It has a very complete interface in the system of warnings and alerts, as it informs you of the attached media, storage, disk utilization, all in a very clear way visually.

That all the virtual machines can be observed in a centralized view, is also something positive and that helps to have a better structured work.
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a configuration time. You need to control and know how to properly manage the configuration options to find the configuration optimized for virtualization, to be able to take advantage of everything. That is why it is good to have knowledge in this area, since it is something difficult to structure properly at the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The time for the creation and administration of virtual machines has been reduced, it takes less time to put them active.

We can solve any customer problem much faster and we are also informed of any failure of the virtual machine through its warning system, so it takes much less time to address questions or failures related to virtual machines.

Any problem of performance or failure, through the monitoring system we have it controlled, we have a broad vision of the whole system and this facilitates our work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SolarWinds Virtualization Manager helps to monitor and structure the creation and administration of virtual machines. I consider it a good tool to work more effectively with these environments.

What do you like best about the product?
Network monitoring tools are really useful when setup is properly planned. We were blindly into solar winds and hoping our vendor would help us out which they did. It’s a very useful and robust product and gives you fault tolerance, packet inspection, hardware stats, performance date for alll of your nodes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly don’t dislike anything about this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Obviously we’re able to monitor our network much more effentiently than before which is a life saver.

I like how solarwinds can give specific times for network performance issues. Providing node details to help troubleshoot which specific node is related to the server at a specific site.
