NetCrunch review

Monitor your entire IT environment in just a few steps.

NetCrunch monitors our entire environment and lets us know what needs attention. We trust the software completely.

Amazing Software

I was able to get access to a software that monitors all devices.

Tool for experts - get proactive

Even with this excellent tool your own resources and time spent working with NetCrunch determine the level of your success. I have been using NetCrunch since around year 2000 in all companies I have worked - found it searching the Internet for monitoring tool and we've been together since :) Imagination and technical knowledge set the limits what you can do with it. With the latest major addition GrafCrunch visualization you can also get step closer to your business people and offer top level dashboards or perhaps in industrial sector make visual monitors of your factory automation. Anything is possible!

Great for monitoring, send email, run scripts.

I use it to monitor approximately 40 servers, a mix of Windows, Linux and VMware.
It send me an email if a node its not responding, low on free disk or services that don't respond.

There were a server that tomcat crashed regularly. Waiting for a patch, I've set Netcrunch to check the service. If its down, it restart it. If after 3 minutes its still down it send me an email. Really great!

I monitor around 150 switches too, for node down, service down and statistics, the "Top Charts" is really cool!

Overall its a really great software, I have the client on my workstation which is always opened! :)

Eric.

the ROI for this monitoring and management system was immediate

the ROI was immediate as the software detected problems that save mony and increase our customers service experience while saving operational costs

Wonderful monitoring solution getting better every day

In our search for an economical monitoring solution, we came across NetCrunch. By far, it was the easiest platform to get up, running, and monitor information from with very little initial configuration.

As we've grown with the platform, we've through the customizations specific to our environment making the logged information even more valuable. The depth of customization can be staggering once you realize how much power is really under the hood.

AdRem has not stopped moving the product forward. Early on, I remember product updates occurring about every month - correcting issues and adding features. This continues to this day but at a slightly slower pace, a sign of a maturing product.

So far, loving the product. Easy to get in to and use. Powerful enough to let us get down and dirty homing in on any specific metrics we want and/or need.

By far best monitoring tool

Very intuitive setup right out of the box. The software automatically detects if it's installed in a virtualized environment and the autodiscovery almost immediately gives you an overview of your entire network. Most machines and devices are categorized on the spot, so you don't even have to remember which machines run Windows, Mac or BSD.

For fine-tuning, the software can be customized quite extensively, from alerts to which protocols NetCrunch monitors and at which intervals. Alerting can be done by SMS, email, sound, action or many different ways, so if you're outside the office and have SLA in mind, it's definitely worth the investment.

Una gran herramienta para mejora la seguridad y estabilidad de una red corporativa.

Muy positiva. Facilita el trabajo, reduce los problemas y la necesidad de atención humana en la red.

Great Value for Great Product

We maintain a company with 4 separate locations, 400 PCs, 25 servers, VOIP phones, and all different types of routers, switches, and access points. NetCrunch can handle everything. It also has the ability to import MIB packs for those that are not natively supported. The reports we get from it are very valuable and gives us an insight on what's really going on. Would definitely recommend this product to anyone that wants to keep an eye on a large infrastructure.

Five Stars for NetCrunch

We've been customers of Adrem for quite a few years now. This monitoring systems is one of the best we tested for both ease of use and overall capabilities. We tested a number of other systems but none of them had the same capabilities and if they did it was at an extra charge. Adrem got it right with their NetCrunch. I highly recommend it.

Great monitoring and first line of defense

First experienced NetCrunch at a user conference where a presenter done a presentation on it. I was highly impressed by the functionality and spoke with him after to get more details. The ability to auto run scripts and auto restart services if they stop have lowered support time as well as increased up time.

I am very pleased with support as they reply back very promptly with suggestions to address any issue we've had.

Great value to feature ratio - some issues with updates

We manage ~12 NetCrunch servers on various networks ranging from 100 to 1000 devices in all sorts of configurations. Once configured NetCrucnh is by far the best NMS for the price. That said, getting it tuned just right will take some time. It has many built-in monitoring packs and can be expanded by importing MIBs or even writing your own custom monitoring packs.

CONS: Unfortunately we have been plagued with issues when updating the past few releases which caused us to lose our config/Atlas for most servers. Adrem support has been adequate however in most cases we were forced to build everything back up again which is obviously less than ideal.

Realy makes our work easier!

My work is much easier, I can help co-workers faster!

NetCrunch Awesome!

NetCrunch solution has everything we needed to monitor our environment and way more than we ever expected. Support/Professional services team is great and able to walk us through setup as well as give pointers on best possible way to setup and monitor our environment from our servers to our network infrastructure. Would definitely recommend this solution to anyone looking to discover everything and anything going on in your environment!

Best of Breed

I have been using NMS products for many years, Adrem Netchrunch is head and shoulders above all the others that I have experienced. The power and ease of use are well balanced. I am able to accomplish all of the usual management tasks and many things I was not able to do with other, less sophisticated products. I am very pleased management console. It is easy to navigate and intuitive to use. WE have been able to manage and monitor devices on our distributed network, across many locations with out any issues. The flexible notifications have alerted us when problems are occurring and we have been able to either prevent or recover from outages. Our users are very pleased with the improved and timely support they are receiving since we started using Netchrunch.

Powerful tool

We were using WhatsUpGold legacy version for few last years, changed to NetCrunch recently.
So far we are very satisfied with this product.

Pros:
+ fast
+ very good support
+ many cool functions built-in
+ frequent updates/upgrades/bugfixes
+ good price

Cons
- not very intuitive configuration interface for beginners - sometimes takes a while to find right place to change something

New NetCrunch 8

We worked with a customer to install this new version to monitor critical infrastructure across 10 sites they manage. The installation was quite easy. We had some minor questions which were quickly resolved by Adrem technical support on the actual day of installation. The customer is now adding more items to be monitored, on a regular basis. As their knowledge of NetCrunch's incredible capabilities grows, they keep getting it to do more and more.

Great product; saves time

Saw this demoed at a tech conf, and then tried the demo onsite and was hooked. We save time and energy with product and recommend to other Tech Admins.

netcrunch 9

The product is much cheaper than alternatives and it delivers on its promises. Adrem software did an excellent job in designing something that is incredibly complex, yet easy to use. Netcrunch works out of the box and autodiscovery is amazing. I would definitely recommend it for IT professionals.

Great Product

We've been using NetCrunch to monitor our servers and critical services for years now. It's very easy to set up and gives us a peace of mind knowing we will be alerted if something goes down.

NetCrunch software essential.

Used NetCrunch every days for monitoring your infrastructures and prevents the issues on the main hardware.

Good stuff

I found some of the monitoring configuration wasn't exactly fluid. Once you get it set up it works well.
