Product Description

Auvik makes network management easier. By automating and simplifying network management, Auvik’s cloud-based software improves the efficiency and capacity of IT teams and helps protect their business from network risk. Today, Auvik helps IT teams establish true visibility and efficiency across more than four million devices on over 55,000 networks worldwide.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Traditional network management systems aren’t designed to deploy quickly and aren’t easy to use or understand. Many systems require an IT pro to purchase expensive on-premises hardware and software for every location they manage and hire a full-time employee to learn, understand, and use the system. The existing systems aren’t designed with today’s networks in mind.

With Auvik, it’s completely different. Our cloud-based network management software can be deployed in minutes, and its simple, intuitive interface can be used by even the most junior technician on an IT team. It doesn’t require deep network knowledge to use and it’s designed to scale with a business.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Their tagline on the homepage is that you can get set up "In under an hour". This was genuinely one of the most streamlined and pleasant setup experiences I've ever gone through. Once set up (took about 15 minutes), the dashboards are really intuitive and make it easy to drill down to get a good look at individual network areas and devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

So far, I haven't come across anything negative, although I'm still exploring the more in-depth functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

Auvik provides a one-stop dashboard on which I can see every aspect of my network, with as much or little detail as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Auvik gets the up-to-date status of all your devices (routers, switches, even printers) all at one single place with a single unified user interface. It is easy to use and easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

It requires installing a service on Windows machines; you have to manually kill the process and stop the service to stop sending network statistics online -- it would be better if we can have a tray icon to control the auvik service easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

Controlling multiple network devices is not an easy thing for company IT: you need to know each device's UI / command interface to control the device or get statistics, and it's hard to put all the devices' status into a single dashboard to monitor if a device is down or if there is abnormal network bandwidth. With Auvik you can simply use one dashboard and one control interface to control everything on your network remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far I love everything! But if I see something I could recommend to you I will let you know. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

For me the access. For example:

Is not only more secure to manage through Auvik, but also faster I can skip a lot of processes to access my switches and other network devices just with I click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

My favourite feature is the interactive network map. It gives you an instant view of your entire landscape and is easy to navigate and see the status of your infrastructure at a glance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

I was slightly disappointed with the Linux installation script, which failed without useful debugging information. I resorted to installing the windows collector but would have preferred to have the collector running in an easily managed LXC container. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

I enjoy the simplicity of the interface, I am able to locate devices on the network easily and find that it is easy to follow and understand what device is where and all of its information along with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

I dislike that I have had to contact support to remove a duplicate device before, I feel it should be given as an option to users to be able to remove devices a bit easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

Auvik seems to be doing a good job at keeping its systems up to date, it is allowing our company to utilize it to the best of its abilities. We have also just implemented better security to our accounts as logins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

I love that you can use Auvik to create terminal sessions to linux and Cisco based equipment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

The setup is pretty extensive. If we were a single network then it would not be so bad but as an MSP, setting up multiple networks is a task. It would also be nice to be able to use an external collector to scan an internal network through a firewall. Something like a collector for Fortigate or PFSense would be cool, or the ability to install a collector on a Raspberry PI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to connect to Cisco switches through Auvik has been invaluable. I don't have to be on the internal network to do this: I can do it from my local web browser. It has also been very valuable to be able to see on a map what connects where. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Network Mapping is amazing with Auvik. Once you populate your required fields (authentication method, subnets, etc,) Auvik will map out your network and show you an interactive map, realtime! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

The pricing structure for Auvik is a bit steep for small businesses and smaller government entities, such as schools or smaller townships. Discounts are seen only if you have a higher number of devices, so smaller entities will with smaller numbers of devices get less of a discount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Auvik:

Add as many authentication methods as possible (username/password combinations, port types, etc.) This will help populate your network at a much more detailed level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Auvik solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Auvik, we can see insights into our network like never before. We instantly know when our devices' bandwidths are being stretched too thin, down to the switchport. It's also helped us track equipment based on MAC addresses much quicker and visually. With its powerful alert system, we can see granular activity that other systems in the past have not been able to alert on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
