(1048 Ratings)

Solar Winds is great for managing a network. It's vendor agnostic and works well with various devices via SNMP. It can be cumbersome to set up, but once it's running you get great visibility into the network. I recommend setting up NetFlow with it to get great insight into your network.

These are my thoughts on the on premise installation since I have no experience with their cloud service. PRTG is a network monitoring application where your plan is to have simple monitoring using mainly SNMP and WMI, PRTG is easy to setup, easy to scale (if you plan for it) and easy to maintain. There are definitely some areas with custom sensors that could see some improvement, but if you put the time in (same thing with all monitoring tools probably) you can get most of your specific monitoring needs covered.

Dynatrace infrastructure monitoring auto-discovers your entire stack with minimal setup and provides real-time topology mapping that makes incident triage fast and intuitive. It is powerful for complex hybrid environments, though host based pricing adds up quickly and anomaly detection requires careful tuning up front
