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?

It has everything in one place in a secure dashboard I can access from anywhere. Supports almost all my devices and is easy and standardised to setup integration with them, with a variety of options for connectivity and support for multiple LANs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

Can be a bit fiddly to make sure stuff is connected correctly, manual override buttons would be helpful to force a scan on a particular IP address or to update a specific device when stuff isn't working perfectly on the first pass.

I can see it being used in a large business with many many devices, but for a small business like mine it's too expensive for my needs, and could possibly look into different price tiers and functionality for smaller needs.

It feels to me that a windows install is the most prioritised method of installation and is what I eventually went with, as docker and a VM were not reliable enough for me, but this may have just been my particular setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Having Auvik means that I no longer have to access different devices directly on different networks, and can do it all remotely and securely over the internet rather than other access options like a VPN or proxy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Auvik is really simple to set up, took no time at all, as I chose the virtual machine Implementation. No configuration necessary, just throw it into VMware and its up and connected. Difficulty during setup can be a real turn off but one of the main points of this service is the ease of use. As for it's uses, I never had a problem with it auto-configuring my network devices, and once the credentials were in it worked well for device monitoring. All it asked for was a credential and everything was up and running. I like the notification reporting, I know if I ever had an issue it would be the first to let me know through the portal and email. Also the network topology mapping is on par or better than anything else I've personnally worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

The convience of the trial is really nice, but looking at the pricing, with my implementation, its just not worth it. If you spend good money on Ubiquiti and comprable equipment, it virtually replaces this product. If you had the time you can set up all the alerts and monitoring for free with enough time spent. If you don't have the time, and you arn't seeing the money going away yourself, I'd use it. Other than that, I'd only imagine looking in here maybe 3-4 times a week or more if I run into issues with the network. With all things considered, its just not worth it for my use case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Usage measurements, network troubleshooting, hardware alerts, network mapping and planning. All of these things make my life while I manage, upgrade, and maintain my network easier, and some of it is just cool. It's just saving me a lot of time, and future headaches.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Installing an auvik collector is relatively easy and straight forward. For my use case i installed it on an Ubuntu VM and the bash script provided in the installation instructions really made this very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

I initially signed up for Auvik with the promise of earning a Ubiquiti Switch for trying it out. Then discvoered what they consider a billable device is not what I have enough of in my small Network. I learned to actually like Auvik during the trial but not enough to pay for it, and now that my trial is over they have made it impossible to close my account and/or disable alerts. There are also no uninstallation instructions for Linux that I have been able to locate in the documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have been looking for a suitable network monitoring and management system for my small network for awhile now and Auvik certainly looked promising at first. I did grow to find the alerts valuable, but now that my trial is over I am unable to change alert settings (disable them since I cannot act on them within the system).

What do you like best about Auvik?

Auvik has been great. It's not easy to create intuitive navigation for the density of data that is available, but they do a pretty good job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

For some reason the company pull down and search bothers me. I would like to be able to just click and start typing, or press a hotkey and start typing. The list seems small and jumbled. But, it works just fine. Definitely a non problem, just a preference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We replaced LogicMonitor with Auvik, and it is much more user friendly. I'm happy our company made the change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
