PRTG
PRODUCT SUMMARY
Praessler PRTG Network Monitor is an infrastructure monitoring solution that empowers sysadmins and IT teams to keep track of network devices around the globe. PRTG Network Monitor simplifies collecting device status and health reports and sending out alerts for unusual metrics. Pricing plans are based on sensor-based licensing.
USE CASES
- Remote monitoring:
With remote monitoring functions, PRTG Network Monitor can detect device status, and other metrics that the sensors have been configured to measure. - Network management:
PRTG provides visibility with dashboards that can display network conditions and issues such as network outages and traffic packet loss. - IT infrastructure security:
Its alert and report system acts as a first line of defense against network vulnerabilities, allowing users to act quickly.
SHORTCOMINGS
- Limited features:
PRTG focuses primarily on network monitoring, and some users have complained about lack of integrations. - Pricing:
While they offer flexible plans, users have said that the sensor-based prices can become expensive with larger networks. - Alert issues:
Reviewers have noted that there are several issues with alerts such as lack of alerts for issues other than outages and disruptive false positive notifications.
NinjaOne
Why your peers choose us over PRTG
While PRTG focuses primarily on network monitoring, NinjaOne allows users to monitor their IT assets and manage and patch their hardware and software. NinjaOne’s unified IT management platform provides a comprehensive suite of tools, consolidating remote monitoring and management (RMM), network management software (NMS), patch management, IT automation, remote access, and backup in one easy-to-use and seamlessly integrated platform. Â
NinjaOne also features accurate, real-time alerts, keeping IT environments secure and operational and minimizing vulnerabilities and downtime more effectively than PRTG’s monitoring-centric approach. PRTG’s pricing is based on sensor-based licensing, which becomes very expensive and less cost-effective than NinjaOne’s pay-per-device pricing, which allows users to only pay for what they need each month.
