PRTG: Simply Brilliant
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Paessler PRTG is its all-in-one monitoring capability and intuitive interface. It allows me to monitor servers, network devices, applications, and services from a single dashboard. The customizable alerts and reports are extremely powerful, helping us detect issues before they affect end users. Plus, the setup is straightforward, even for complex environments.

While PRTG is a powerful tool, its initial configuration can be a bit overwhelming for new users. Some advanced features require a deeper understanding or additional fine-tuning to get the most out of them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PRTG helps us detect and resolve network issues before they impact users by providing real-time visibility across our entire IT infrastructure. It centralizes monitoring of servers, bandwidth, applications, and devices, which reduces downtime and support requests. This has significantly improved our operational efficiency, helped us plan capacity proactively, and strengthened our overall IT governance.
A Critical Piece of My Network Monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
PRTG has allowed me to create an at-a-glance status overview of the key components of my network so I can be certain everything is up and running before the doctors start seeing patients each day. In addition, the alerts I have set on those and a few other devices in the network notify me 24/7 if there is any king of outage, often letting me address it before the users even know it is happening. I could not do my job nearly as well without it. Rollout and setup were easy. PRTG scanned my network and found the devices that I needed to manage and using several techniques can present me with an almost overwhelming number of things to monitor for each device. These are easy enough to turn off so that seeing what is important isn't a needle in a haystack situation. Any questions I have had have been quickly resolved in their support forums. I am a one-man show, so PRTG has effectively given me an extra set of eyes that I desperately needed. I'm both the admin and the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
About my only complaint is that there is one hassle in managing maps (the dashboard tool) that hasn't been addressed yet, though it has been an issue for several years. But there is a workaround for this, and it is literally my only complaint, so there is not much to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility of my multi-site network, spread across the state, would be a major problem for me as a one-man show. The alerts that PRTG sends me, both SMS and email, keep me aware of what is happening at the minute it occurs allowing me to respond in the timeliest fashion possilbe.
