Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros It is easy to install and configure. The reports are completely customizable. Seamless integration with third party applications. It allows us to discover networks, physical and virtual servers easily and import data. It allows visualizing of application dependency mapping. The best feature of Device 42 is that it is highly customizable and flexible in terms of integration with other software programs. The user interface of the software is designed in such a way that it displays all the necessary data in an organized manner. It offers various pre-defined reports and built-in dependency mapping topologies that cut down the input time and increases the overall productivity. Device42 is a great software product that our business team really requires to work on a day to day basis. It is very helpful and really increases productivity. The Room, Rack, and Device model layouts are some of the best features in Device 42. Very much a lightweight Visio for building server rooms, cable diagrams, and rack elevation diagrams for ones IT companies. I like how customizable and versatile of an infrastructure platform Device42 is. The support is better than its peers. Cons Occasionally the system may be slow which can cause decrease in speed of completing tasks. The user interface and the graphics used in the software feels a bit outdated in use. Not many issues specifically with the product or software. There could be some more functionality built into the product. The UI is a bit dated, lacks modern graphic elements like one we need for a pure data center operations. It can feel slow at times/somewhat laggy, due to how central it is.		Pros from Real Users Pros Love the simplicity and customization of the product, its very easy to get devices monitored and to modify nearly anything. Being able to mass modify interfaces really saves time and the notifications are now business critical at my facility. The support is second to none if you run into issues, the BGP monitoring and integrated IPAM/Syslog really set TotalView a cut above their competitors. Installation is quick and easy. Configuration is very straight forward and easy. Gives you a "TotalView" of your network and equipment. Can be up and running in a matter of minutes. PathSolutions has been a wonderful product for us and the support is great. It's very easy to get in contact with someone at path solutions when you require assistance. Right off the top, the ease of configuration and understanding the information available was the most import aspect for me with TotalView. The software aggregates information on multiple devices in a way that makes narrowing down a network issue much more effective. In addition, syslog and Netflow views are available right from the device pages speeding up information that is critical to a strong network foundation. Quick and good information. Works well when you need to get some good information on devices. Decent product. This is one of the easiest-to-install network monitoring and management systems ever. Anyone can get this up and running in under 15 minutes and, depending on your network, can be fully productive in under a day. We currently have 5 techs monitoring and managing 160 network switches in 50 buildings across 2 campuses and this is their #1 tool for monitoring, troubleshooting, and fixing issues. The user interface is clean, simple and fast which makes it extremely easy to find and resolve issues. One of the best features is the network prescription that will not only identify issues but provide you with an easy-to-understand explanation of the issue and how to resolve it. I have been using PathSolutions for 15+ years. It has been a great product. I would recommend it to any IT Admin. Price...Installation, initial configuration and training with Cris and Amy lasted until all my questions were answered. We run a call center with 80% remote users. Troubleshooting VOIP with WireShark or SNGREP is cool and all, but tech has other issues to solve. TotalView is running on my monitor, alerts are configured and I get better sleep. Ease of use, completeness of features, ability to determine issues quickly, monitoring interfaces and links, MOS Tools, Interface histories, IP management, GREMLIN history!!! Feature rich. Great support. Great documentation. Simple implementation. Extremely customizable network monitoring.
