    Main reason to select ManageEngine was price/performance ratio. Another reason was great coverage of monitoring of different technologies and modules: network devices of various vendors, network modules like NCM, NFA, support for monitoring of vmware virtualisation , citrix …

    All of the SolarWinds solutions stack up against their competition. The customer support is excellent, KB articles are details, and the community (Thwack) is the best when it comes to working through complex configurations/monitors. These are the things that make them the right …

    SolarWinds NCM solution is more flexible and GUI is from my point of view more intuitive, from the other hand Manage Engine solution is [a] cheaper solution which has almost [the] same functionality but suffers of luck of deeper integration with other Manage Engine modules.

    Chose SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager (NCM)
    It seemed that NCM had more built-in options and the ability to be used in a more flexible manner. I think the number of canned reports was greater with SolarWinds. The scripting capacity was in-place with ManageEngine. In some ways, it was a much more canned product. But at …

    Using multiple SolarWinds products could have been a much better experience if they share a single pane of glass. The impact of using several products had its benefits, but we also had to have several windows into the environment opened just to see the full picture. We ended up …

    Chose SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager (NCM)
    NCM is superior to ManageEngine or Spiceworks in its ability to automate the primary tasks of a configuration management tool. Of course, it integrates well with other applications in the SolarWinds Orion suite of applications. The list of vendors supported by NCM is larger as …
