PRTG Erfahrungen

Einfache Bedienbarkeit, stetige Weiterentwicklung, zur Überwachung gibt es kaum Grenzen. Man kann eigene Skripte hinterlegen. Schnelle Reaktion auf Issues. Mobile App

ab einer bestimmten Anzahl an Sensoren, gerade WMI, werden weitere Probes (Server) benötigt um eine Lastverteilung der Server zu erzeugen. Die Weboberfläche ist ab einer gewissen Anzahl recht träge.

- Es bietet eine sehr umfangreiche Palette an Sensoren
- Die Benutzeroberfläche ist super
- Agentenlos

- schlechte Azure Unterstützung, erst mit teurem 3rd Party Addon können Services in Azure vernünftig abgebildet werden
- Die Lizenzierung basiert auf Sensoren, was schnell teuer werden kann, je nachdem, wie viele Informationen Sie sehen möchten

Der Umfang für vordefinierte Sensoren ist massiv und ist in alle Richtungen fast vollständig anpassbar.

Der Preis für den Wartungsvertrag steigt (wohl auch durch die Inflation) deutlich.

Intuitive management interface. Ease to integrate to your environment

Price. But if you compare to other monitoring services, it is normal

This is the Recommended software that I often use to monitor or improve the Information Technology infrastructure. Very easy to install, user friendly and supports mobile devices. It can detect our problems quickly. We can check all critical Service Application components on the bus :)

This software does not yet have a weekly custom report for audit needs, so we do a manual retrieval :(

Helped us many time with alert so our infrastructure did not go down.

I would like more vendor specific alerts to be included like Fortinet,

Ease of use, Web based, highly customizable if needed.

The only quirk I have is it is still not available in Linux (though a linux is probe is development I prefer the whole system on a linux environment)

Easy to deploy, start out with a free tier to get to know the product and the data it can provide.

Importing MIBs for odd products and getting the right scales kb vs MB is sometimes a chore. Their support is great to help out.

reality and stability and rich functions that it does support.

PRTG care ,
support bt email or support by phone , both are weak

1. Easy Access and Management of a large number of Both LANs and WANs on just a single window.

2. On-premises installation for full control over the company's data, configuration & updates.

3. Free Version of the Software with most of the core network management tools with its limitation being that it offers only 10 Sensors.

Sensor Limitations: The Free Version of the Software is limited to only 10 sensors

The plethora of ways and systems to monitor. Built in support for Windows Active Directory, DNS, SQL Server and more. So many aspects to monitor - SSL Certificates, Running Services, individual SQL tables.With SNMP, you can add anything that supports that protocol. I Added Printer toner levels.Integrates out of the box with Active Directory, for single sign on purposes. Fine grained security options. An API to easily add new systems.The free version is full featured, limiting only the amount of sensors (100) you can run.Built in Integration with other well known systems like Meraki, and Sophos.

It's a great product that does what it does every well. Nothing really comes to mind. Perhaps too much customization.

Quick and easy setup
Open interfaces for custom sensors
An API
Fair prizing

Almost all GUIs
Old web GUI stuck sometimes or do not show everything
New web GUI put focus on strange things and not very intuitive
The full client does not work good at all

No multiselect on sensors for multiple changes on sensors are possible

This monitoring application has helped us stay on track of what is happening at every corner and for every device on our network, from Storage to network, security and usage statistics and notifications for each, this application has saved us many times in restoring and fixing problems before they get noticed by end users. From our desk and our our phones using the app, we can monitor and get visibility into many device types, including Cisco, Linux, storage systems, Microsoft operating systems just to name a few, with thousands of sensors to choose from. Very powerful and constantly improving.

While just a few sensors were not performing well, like the Ping 30 for Cisco 1900 routers, PRTG has constantly released new updates that once applied, these issues are rectified.

PRTG has been our go to monitoring tool for a couple of years and has never failed us.

Auto update function does not always do the trick but manual update always fixes it. Not all metrics are usable but overal very impressed.

Really enjoy the ease of use with setting up sensors.

Dashboard functionality could be a little more robust. We would like to use instant geographical information with a dashboard, but not that great and time consuming to use.

Alerting is on time and can connect most of the devices.

Network scanning is not accurate and it cannot scan multiple networks even if it has access to it. Maybe I am wrong but that is what I experienced.

The dashboard, the variety of connectors and the way to monitor, the easy way to configure, and the ease of monitoring the network out of your reach.

So far nothing to change, for now, it is a complete tool.
