    Easiest to deploy

    Date: Dec 19 2022
    Summary

    Their update process is the easiest and most reliable of any monitoring solution I've used. Most monitoring and alerting systems require months of work to deploy where PRTG is useful within a few days of effort.

    Positive

    Fast and easy to deploy with a large feature set.
    It scales well by using multiple probes.
    The desktop client is nice.
    Security assignments are easy when they are tied to Active Directory Groups.

    Negative

    Map design is more difficult than it should be and they have an outdated look to them.

    Good, but not great

    Date: Dec 30 2020
    Summary

    As someone who has only tried the software, not a habitual user of it for several months, I'm not that impressed. I'm sure it's good at what it does, but I'm just not finding a good spot for it in my tool box.

    Positive

    It is a very thorough network scanner, and gives you tons of information about every device it scans.

    Negative

    Not the most intuitive interface. Same device may show up in several different places based on how it categorizes it, and there doesn't appear to be an easy way to hide it from the redundant sections or move it to just one of them. We use certain IP address ranges for certain job functions and it was more difficult than necessary to basically draw fences around the ones I thought should be grouped. Also, this thing is slow. Advanced IP scanner takes about 3 minutes to scan the network and provide quite a bit of information. PRTG ran for 3 days and I still don't know if it was done.
