Pros

“WhatsUp Gold is a reliable and cost-effective choice for on-premise and hybrid network monitoring. While it excels in traditional network monitoring.”

Bhavinn G.

Manager

“Amazing dashboards, we can customize the dashboards to put exactly what type of information we need.”

jesus v.

Server Administrator

“It’s particularly well-suited for SMBs and mid-sized enterprises looking for an intuitive way to monitor their network infrastructure.”

Bhavinn G.

Manager

Pros

“I love being able to have nice visualizations as well as extensibility, plus having "proxy" servers at each location allows for me to ensure that even if a site goes down I still have metrics to reference once it gets sent to the server.”

Dawson G.

Network and Systems Administrator

“I used Zabbix for around four years to monitor both our internal and client infrastructure across many cloud providers.”

James B.

Head Of Development

“Need more manual work to do after changing small information as there is no auto-populating of changes like config file change, or hostname change.”

Harshad n.

Technical Support Expert

Cons

“The setup of WhatsUp Gold is a bit cumbersome.”

Matt W.

“Our experience with utilizing the network monitoring, netflow, configuration backup, and syslog services caused our instance to crawl and at times and be completely unusable. ”

Walter H.

Manager

“Needs more licensing tiers, paying for a 300 device license when we are barely over 100 is ridiculous”

Tim M.

Network Engineer

Cons

“Lack of some features like filtering information that has entire data overview and often official documentation is not enough.”

Vedran M.
