PRTG a useful and easy to deploy tool
We started using PRTG with the demo and we realized that it had many functionalities such as email notification and others such as being able to monitor the traffic of an interface or the SNMP of a device and we decided to purchase the licensed version and it has been a great choice.
PROSWhat I like most about PRTG is that it is very easy to deploy, in addition to being very intuitive, it does not require much knowledge to configure it. It also has an APP for Android that is very useful and from which you can monitor the services.
CONSWhat I like least is that it is a little expensive compared to the competition.
Reasons for switching to PRTG
We changed it because we wanted a more efficient tool, one that was faster in notifications and also more user-friendly.

Fast and easy to set up monitoring
The initial setup of PRTG is very easy, and the 100 free sensors allows you to monitor a reasonable part of your network for free to determine that it will do the desired job - or if you only have a small network, this may be fine to monitor your entire network.
CONSSome advanced features like the ability to set up auto-remediation of issues would be nice, as would the ability to use PRTG behind Cloudflare.
Reason for choosing PRTG
PRTG was faster and easier to set up and have a functional monitoring system, while also being relatively low cost.
Vendor Response
Dear Warren, Thank you for your positive feedback on PRTG's easy setup and free sensor offering. We appreciate your suggestions and we'll consider them for future updates to improve our product's capabilities. Your Paessler Team

Amazing tool for amazing price
Planning is more tedious then setting it actually up. Getting all topics covered that you want to monitor is a hard task but then implementing all checks with PRTG is a breeze!
PROSPRTG has been our go to monitoring tool for a couple of years and has never failed us.
CONSAuto update function does not always do the trick but manual update always fixes it. Not all metrics are usable but overal very impressed.
Vendor Response

Easy to implement, web based and nearly agent less monitoring
It was easy to install and manage, it's helpling a lot with monitoring and alerting and it's aeasy to use. Also to adapt or tweak thresholds is very easy.
PROSIt's very easy to implement and for a lot of the user cases it does not need an agent or software to be installed
CONSFor well known Enterprise Products e.g. VMWare VCenter there are only limited intergration available.
Reasons for switching to PRTG
Icinga was to complicated to setup and to use.

A simple and cost-effective way for traffic monitoring
The installation are pretty easy and operationally, it's easy to maintain as long as you have large disk space and good CPU resources. The monitoring is made easy with custom sensors and updated snmp library files. Previously, the mail support will be a bit delay since HQ in Germany is 6-8 hours away, but now, APAC has its own resources to respond to the case.
PROSEasy to setup and operate. Few clicks and you are able to monitor the performance and health of your network, devices, servers, IOTs devices. Not too expensive and light installation file.
CONSNot able to run on Linux or other non-Windows operating system.
Reason for choosing PRTG
Easy to install, cost is lower than the rest, easy to operate and devices can be monitored within 5 minutes.
Reasons for switching to PRTG
MRTG is an open source and not easy to manage and operate. Another solution by Solarwind seems to be heavy with the installation and not that straight forward when doing snmp.
