Paessler PRTG Likes & Dislikes
The Auto Discovery feature is great as long as you configure it with your own slimmed down templates. The licensing is easy to understand and is based on sensors. If you have an environment that is very spread out, it doesnt cost anything extra to install extra probe- or extra core-servers. You can do all actions through the API!
An extensive sensor library and flexible alarms, it helps me immediately if the bandwidth is saturated, for example. Can create and custom dashboards
The great aprt is the lighthness of the sensor and the capabilities of having a app to notification purposes. It has its own DB, app and knowledge base.
The core server gets slow at larger installations and the migration tool between core servers is not super. This can be mitigated with some planning and should get better in a few releases (SQL) Most custom sensors are not included in the templates.
The interface could be improved, it feels a bit outdated The UI can be a little bit slow when monitoring a large number of sensors
Sometimes you must know very well the settings of the tool - otherwise you will be lost on why you receive or do not receive some parameters.

PRTG On-Premise - Easy Setup and
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. - It Associate<50M USDIT ServicesReview Source

PRTG Network Monitor Offers Intuitive Setup but Faces Resource Intensity Challenges
I have over 7 years experience using PRTG network monitor and it has been mostly positive. It's a user-friendly monitoring tool which utlilises SNMP and converts the data into an easily interpretable format, including graphs, long and short term reporting and easy to set up email and text alerting. - Devops10B+ USDConsumer GoodsReview Source
