«SolarWinds Orion NPM Review»
Usability

Overall rating
Benefits:
NPM is one of the best Network performance Monitoring software out there, it allows me to add any type of objects within my Network Environment, Network nodes, Server nodes either Windows or Linux, and i can select the elements that i need to add & add the needed reports & alerts based on my needs.
Drawbacks:
What is least that i like about it is that when it crashes, or stops all of a sudden, then the Alerts & the Reports stop working & i have to login to the Application server to troubleshoot the problem, yet the support is always good & helping.
In sum:
I can consider it the best NPM software out there, it is suitable for types of organizations starting with small till large & very large, I have been using it for more than 4 years & i'm satisfied.
«Great tool to keep track of servers and when they are performing poorly, or not at all. »

Benefits:
Right out of the box, admins can begin using this software. Alerts are already configured for common needs such as when a server goes down, or when it reboots. Disk space, CPU and RAM usage, etc.
Drawbacks:
Can be a bit difficult to discern which variables do what when formatting alerts and email notifications. First initial load of the portal takes a few minutes. After the initial load, portal loads fast each time, until the next day.

Benefits:
Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) is by far the industry leader. The system is robust and offers real-time and indepth analysis of network interfaces, nodes, devices, etc.
Drawbacks:
The platform did some take some time to setup. Unfortunately, some of the alerting can be very vague. There are templated alerts, however, they do not fit the needs of our business. We spent countless man-hours in developing new alerting templates.
In sum:
The ability to monitor, report. and alert on our Network Infrastructure.

Benefits:
What's not to love? Deep, Reliable, and an absolute monitoring beast. I use this daily - DAILY - to monitor my company's environment. The awareness that it gives you is bar none the best around.
Drawbacks:
Cost can get hefty depending on how many modules you use. If your company is in a lucky enough position to accept the price, then you are in for a treat.
In sum:
The ability to constantly monitor the health of my network.
«Good, Solid Network Monitor»

Overall rating
Benefits:
Once it's set up, NPM is pretty easy to configure and monitor just about anything with a network adapter/connection. We purchased the SLX version which means we can monitor as many nodes/elements as we want. Email alerts are timely and help us stay on top of outages and server capacities. Been using this for 5 years now and it just doesn't the job. Can't forget about the customer SQL alerts either. Great job here!
Drawbacks:
You need SQL server for this. If not using an Express version, that's more costs. The SLX version is expensive compared to other solutions.
In sum:
Timely alerts and warnings that keep our network and server infrastructure running smoothly.

We use Network Performance Monitor because we need deep information about the operation of our network devices. The system works very well in our organization and I can recommend it to others.
Drawbacks:
The system is very good and complete, but also very difficult to use, the implementation of the system is also very difficult, it requires an experienced partner.

Benefits:
The details that it provides are huge and so many little intricate details to monitor and take care about. Gives peace of mind once installed properly for sure.
Drawbacks:
For a network monitoring tool, a little too expensive. Huge customization are needed at some step but not necessary that you might need to too.

Benefits:
Ease of install, ease of customization, and easy to learn based on the interface. Without training, I was able to pick it up and run with it.
Drawbacks:
The cost is the only concern I have. You buy modules based on what you need, and I think one package with all would make life easier.
In sum:
Being able to forget about the network 24/7 and rely on it to notify us when something is wrong.
