    [Wireshark is just] not the same. It feels like in incomplete product. [SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset] is complete, not buggy and is supported[.]

    I haven't compared any tools similar to SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset. This might be because I'm pretty biased when it comes to monitoring, and reporting solutions. I've found that SolarWinds provides the biggest bang for the buck in my opinion. I'm sure there are other …

    We honestly didn't look at much beyond this because of all of the tools this toolset had in it. We found a use for a good chunk of them right away, and are finding more every month it seems like. We really wanted to make use of the majority of the tools included so we could …

    To be honest, I'm not aware of any other toolset from a competitor that is remotely comparable. All other monitoring systems/vendors tend to use standard browser viewable monitoring systems and the option to use a locally installed software, to obtain the same results is not …

    These tools complement the Engineer's Toolset. They are excellent at detecting most issues and at keeping the network monitored and protected. However, when it comes time to dig into an issue, especially a hard to fix intermittent issue, these products lack the granularity of …

    I love the npm package, but if you are doing one-off monitoring to diagnose, SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset is more than adequate. The main drawback with SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset is the monitoring is only valid as long as you have the laptop on (obviously). npm provides for …

    SolarWinds by far exceeds the abilities of other products, and is more easily tuned to the environments.

    SolarWinds NPM and NCM use a lot of the tools available in the toolset. This is a nice combo of the two with a little bit of IPAM thrown in. I would say the toolset is geared more toward the field engineer, that will be doing work that may sever communications to the rest of …
