Auvik Reviews & Product Details - Page 13

Impressive how quickly Auvik scanned our network, created a network back and e-mailed us with an unspotted issue on the network that had gone unnoticed and since resolving that we've already had improved network reliability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up all our devices to be accessed by Auvik took a while - but not really Auvik's fault. We're also getting some false errors which we need to investigate, but I'm sure these are just setting up/teething issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the alerting features and the ability to have cloud-stored configurations. The mapping feature is also helpful to see the following connections the devices will make. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the mapping feature is a plus, it would be more helpful if you could narrow the size of the scope of the map easier. Mapping an extensive network may also be an issue with how our network is discovered through the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's super easy to use. The web interface is easy to navigate, and the installation is easy to perform. You don't need a specific appliance, you can install a program and make any laptop or PC on the network into a reporting device in less than 5 minutes. The system reports on managed or unmanaged switches, workstations, and printers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish they had a phone app. Sometimes it is a pain to have to dig through all of my daily work emails to see if I have received anything from them. If there was an app on my phone that popped up a message whenever something happened, this program would be PERFECT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This allows us to get up-to-date notifications and maintain a network for our clients that they can depend on. Seeing a customer network as a single pane of glass perspective makes growing or diagnosing issues extremely easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have much to say in this area, but..... I would love to see a mobile app that could assist on the go as we are mobile a lot in our industry. I would also like to see code written to allow a collector to be placed on an ARM processor for say a raspberry pi. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Auvik provides us to monitor all networking devices, firewalls, servers and internet links. It is one of the best monitoring tool in the Network and security industries. GUI is excellent and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is Nothing to dislike. It is a perfect tool or platform to manage the network for company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Auvik is easy to set up. Once you get the probe installed, it scans and finds everything. You can then decide what you want to be managed or not and work though setting up the alerts you want. I also love that it will monitor other things like Vmware at no additional cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cant say that i think it is a bad thing but there are a lot of things you can alert on. Digging though to decide what you want to get an alert on or not can be cumbersome but that being said i would still rather have more to choose from than just a few. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One central location accesible from anywhere by individual URL, alerting is also very good aswell. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI can feel slightly cluttered and complicated at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found that the setup was the best part. Network mapping and monitoring have lots of options, but Auvik make it too easy to set up it was unreal. I installed the collector, then ran through the steps on the web portal. All I had to do was provide the community strings for the SNMP, it did the rest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Windows and Linux only. No collector for Mac OS. Some shops/Studios use Mac OS, like me. I wound up running my Collector on a Virt Windows machine. But Mac OS should be supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Auvik has a detailed map view of the entire network, this comes in real handy if you are to understand the network layer and architecture of an entire site for a client. It is very easy to add the sites to Auvik and once the sites are added, Auvik does wonders in showing a complete view of the existing network infrastructure. It would be easy to search for a device or switch or a router in the GUI and the web UI is faster and responsive. Their support team are very knowledgeable and helpful in clarifying the queries, I had a specific scenario in configuring the notification channel and their support team was of great assistance whenever needed. We have Auvik integrated with PSA ticketing system, two way handshake works really well wrt ticket creation and closure.Their network discovery capabilities are very impressive, its a real deal to get all of network infrastructure of a client under a single umbrella. Overall I would say they are the competitive and best out there in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Auvik's UI can be a little more intuitive, IMO they have a redundant section such as Manage Alerts(which holds Alerts, Notification channels and Maintenance window section). Currently, they appear in both overall site location and in each site, understanding the configuration of how it would work wrt sites is a bit challenging. Alerting section looks to be confusing when there are multiple alerts for a shorter window, its hard to track down in UI whether a particular alert has resolved or not. Currently they page you for a cleared alert as well, if that can be shut off that would be well and good, would be a bit less noisier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It helps me to visualize the topology of different monitored networks and also provides easy access to devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It wouldn't be something I dislike, but it would be helpful to have more filtering options to ease searching. Something useful for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
