NPM review
What do you like best about the product?
NPM is an excellent monitoring tool for any size network. Whilst it is easy for anyone to use, it is very powerful in the information it supplies. Both in graphical and report formats.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything about it. The product does everything it says it will do straight out of the box. And the fact that it's easy to use, makes getting information and alerting out of it a breeze.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Any network problems can easily be picked up by using NPM. Everything that's being logged, can be alerted or reported on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The ease of this product make installation a breeze. In next to no time will you have usable data to report or alert on.
Easy to use for non-network administrators
What do you like best about the product?
NPM provides insight into the network without being a network administrator. It is a easy to setup and maintain and provides data that would not typically be seen if you don't have the technical skills to get to that data.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I don't like about NPM. The only thing I wish Solarwinds did would be to include the services of NetFlow into NPM for a single lower price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using NPM allows us to easily see the network performance of all devices on our network. We can use the data to see how much data is being pushed from our IIS servers or how much data a user is pulling from our filers. NPM also shows the performance of our Cisco switches which includes the network usage on each port, CPU usage for the switch, and also the health of the switches. NPM makes it easy for a non-network administrator to view all this data that would have never been seen otherwise.
The NPM NetPath service is also great to get an idea of connections speeds across your network. With complicated networks it would provide a deep look on how your network traffic is routed. You can also use NetPath to let you know if a service users connects to goes down (i.e IIS services, Facebook, etc...)

Works great alone, but it works even better with the rest of the SolarWinds products to give you overall view of performance of your systems
Solarwinds Networ Performance Monitor Review

I like the ease of use of this product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike, I wish they would include a lab license with an unlimited license so I could test outside of my production environment.

The ease in which it can be setup. It is also easy to manage and track issues that occur. The dashboards are very cutomizable and you can choice what you want to see.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product has everything I could ask for. I have found nothing I disliked about this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has given me alerts to servers and Infrastructure that are down or having issues. I can see what the problem is and correct it in a couple of easy steps. Having a real-time view of my site-to-site VPNs has been a great help in keeping my remote sites up and running. I have also found the wireless heat maps to be useful in tracking down issues of coverage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This product is a great tool in monitoring your network. It provides several ways to track and monitor what is happening and gives you a great base of operations to build from. They have several other products that attached to this that can be useful.

What do you dislike about the product?
the licensing is node based, and gets used up quickly,

it needs to be more flexible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we have achieved business problems like Network Monitoring, effective troubleshooting, monitoring remote systems with the help of windows and linux agents, sending alerts , insights within the network and detailed analysis of the network, network path maps for better visualization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Kindly consider to calculate the nodes that you want to add before hand to decide on the licenses .
you can still easily remove nodes if you find that you don't have enough licenses. however make a list of all that you want to include in the tool, calculate the nodes as per reference. this might help you handle your licenses in a better way.

NPM - Practical Network Monitoring Backbone
What do you like best about the product?
NMP is very easy to understand and works well with other SW products.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish customization was more expansive...especially with web interface options (views).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
NPM serves as the "backbone" for our SW suite monitoring our ever expanding network monitoring needs.
Always NPM!
What do you like best about the product?
It's intuitive and immediately puts you in control of your network. I've been using Solarwinds products for nearly 10 years now and have seen many improvements. The support community is great and the suite of products is always evolving.
What do you dislike about the product?
Network Atlas - despite all the general NPM improvements, sadly this never seems to evolve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I first joined my current organisation, we were pretty much 'blind' on a monitoring front. Within a month of setting up NPM we immediately had perspective. Combine NPM with NCM & NTA and you're onto a winner!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Request a trial and get involved with the Thwack! community.
Consolodated and Customizable
What do you like best about the product?
Lets you see your network the way you want to see it. Customizable and allows deep insight into the areas of interest.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance sluggish with many elements, additional hardware and software required for large networks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Insight into potential network issues allows a proactive posture that prevents unexpected outages.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Budget for additional products to provide a complete management solution.
