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.

It's easy to use, the UI is nice and it's easy to navigate. Installing the controller via docker was simple and the sales guy was quick to reply.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

There is not a version of the Auvik Collector that can be installed on a Raspberry Pi so we can cheaply deploy the collector on a credit card sized Arm Machine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It allows us to see in real time the clients whole network, and to act quickly on the areas that have failed rather than engineers trying to figure it out for themsleves blind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use primarily Auvik to make sure mission-critical devices.

I feel it is far superior to competitors Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel it is the only real place for improvement would be in the interface and making it a bit more user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would 100 percent use Auvik for mission-critical wants and needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

This is a breeze to setup. Within 30min I had 2 client sites setup and was able to see a network map of all my connected devices. Able to drill down into my switches and see which devices are using the most bandwidth.

One other nice feature is that you are able to pop right into the CLI of your device (ie Switch) and view/change the configuration, without having to VPN into the site and then connect to the device.

I also like the straightforward pricing so you what you are going to pay right away, unlike other products that like to nickel and dime you and every element you want to report on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

Not sure if this product has the ability of monitoring system resources as in CPU, RAM, Temp, etc of servers and switches, as some of my devices are not installed in the most ideal locations.

Also, it is a bit pricey as a MSP to have this added cost per client per month. We'll have to use it a bit more to see if it is cost effective in the long run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being able to manage your devices from one pane of glass is really nice. Plus I can add all my MSP clients and switch between them easyily, without having to drop and login into the other clinet. Also, you are able to see visually your network layout and then drill down to see performance of the over all network down to the individual device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

I'm a big fan of Auvik being vendor-augnostic. It works with any device that you can SSH or telnet into or has an snmp agent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

The adoption process is rather teadious. It takes a while for Auvik to discover devices (overnight for our team). We created seperate vlan jsut for Auvik management to make it more simplistic and seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We deploy Pfsense off-site. With Auvik we are able to get status updates if something goes wrong (i.e. update, hardware, etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Auvik?

Auvik is useful for helping obtain a clean visual representation of network topologies and showing a nice graphical representation of what's consuming bandwidth on a network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Auvik?

To take full advantage, NetFlows need to be configured on network equipment, which often requires expensive licensing from hardware vendors, along with a fair amount of configuration in order to send the flows to the Auvik connector. Not neccessarily Auvik's fault that some vendors charge extra for NetFlow capbilitiy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Auvik has allowed us to share detailed topologies with third parties or network administrators (especially MSPs or other vendors) who might not be familiar with how the networks of our facilities are interconnected. Rather than spending significant time manually creating Visio drawings, Auvik helps automate the creation of visual representations of the topology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
