SolarWinds NPM Reviews & Ratings 2023

SolarWinds
Network Performance Monitor (NPM) delivers comprehensive network fault
monitoring and performance management that scales and expands with a company’s network
monitoring needs. Users can collect and view availability, real-time and
historical statistics from routers, switches, firewalls, servers, and any other
SNMP-, ICMP-, or WMI-enabled devices directly from a web browser.

The vendor states that SolarWinds
users can get a full NPM installation up and running the same day they
download, and that implementation does not require a team of consultants. NPM provides visibility into the health of network devices and servers on the network,
ensuring that users have needed real-time information to keep their
network running at peak performance.
