WhatsUp Gold Reviews - Page 7

Notifications for equipment up/down status. Asset tracking

This software does WAY more than I need it to. Version 14 was good enough for us.

Thank you for the review and for being a valued customer.

The Alert notifications for each devices in the gui so we know when something is not working.

Navigating through the Web interface is little difficult as it has many options and you need to drill down to get to the information you need.

Easy to use. Straight forward setup and easy to use once setup.

There could be some performance improvements. Software can be glitchy at times.

I like the features around bandwidth monitoring

Its cumbersome to use and maintain. Otherwise its not bad.

Ability to be notified quickly about servers / services being down.

There was a buggy version a few months ago that kept causing the poller to stop.

WhatsUp Gold works great for monitoring end points and alerting when they are out.

Automatic mapping of network has never quite got things right. I believe unmanaged switches and firewalls make this hard to operate.

Easy to use. Gives our organization visibility in our infrastructure on what's UP or DOWN.

None at the moment, more features to explorer.

WhatsUp Gold is a good basic monitoring solution with an easy to use interface.

The product lacks more advanced monitoring features and it gets more and more replaced by other monitoring solutions in the market. Especially with more and more cloud solutions becoming available.

Ease of use for WhatsUp Gold is great. The product does what is advertised and provides a great system for notification and analysis.

Flow analysis is lacking. The functionality is there and we pay for it, but WhatsUp Gold does not provide deep inspection of flows. Rather, it gives a high level overview.

Thank you for the review and for being a valued customer.

It has more features than the normal whatsapp, thus making it more fun to play around with and explore other options that suit individual need

number of bugs and unending ads and pop up either up or down part of the application, which can be annoying and disturbing

Thanks for providing a fantastic monitoring solution for our network.

No issues were found as of yet. We appreciate the support we receive.

I've been using this product for many years to monitor uptime on my servers and web sites. It's easy to use and configure. I get email alerts when a server or website stops responding. It does a lot more than this, but these are the most important features for me.

Sometimes when organizing items on the screen I accidentally move wrong and then all my server/website objects end up in strange places on the screen.

Thank you for the review and for being a valued customer.

Discovery scans to quickly pull in assets from network and get them managed.

Bulk editing is cumbersome and import from lists does not work well.

The feature that we leverage most is device dependencies. If an entire network segment goes down, we can filter out the noise of the unreachable devices behind the problem device which leads us to the root of the problem faster.

When you are adding devices you have to pay attention to the default settings which could easily have you scan for more devices than necessary. In a business, this may not matter much. But in a school district, we have thousands of devices that we do not monitor.

Netflow integration, alert notifications, ease of use

Time to time sluggish response on the webgui

Thank you for the review and for being a valued customer.

Installation and configuration went smoothly. Support was great to work with.

Needs a more fleshed out web monitoring.

The software is very stable. Upgrades are easy. Visual consistency.

There is many options therefore requiring research when wanting to perform a task.

I liked the text alerts and e-mail alerts when equipment is down. Also, that you can assign policies to send more frequent alerts for critical equipment vs other non-mission critical equipment.

The text alerts can be misleading because they don't include entire message. Example would be that you receive text alert about a switch, but you don't know if the switch is down or just a port is down. You have go and then check the e-mail to see the entire message.

Getting alerts is the most beneficial part of the system

The reliability of the system and ease of use

Easy to use, great tools and good results.

Slow responses, a bit expensive, but otherwise good.

I like that it was easy to install and quickly discovered the devices on my network.

It might be a pro or a con but there is a lot to the software so it is a little cumbersome to figure out at first.

It is easy to setup and have automation in added new devices to be monitored. We all know that some admins forget to add new devices to the monitoring software. Alerting is key.

Can be difficult to locate and setup the one-off monitors. We would like a solution that is in the cloud. You cannot get alerts that a system is down if the system loses internet connection.

Its easy to use and configure, its easy for customers to understand and work with us as well.

They haven't added a feature request for over 10 years, we keep asking for it and they don't implement
