## Reviews

### "PRTG Is a Great Tool for many Organizations" — 4.0/5

> **Adam** | *16 April 2024* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: PRTG works on Mac or PC\! I can set it up to alert me only on certain items in my org tree by priority, and it works 100% and I don't ever miss notifications.
> 
> **Cons**: Some alert settings could be more customizable or paused for a certain time period easier. The user interface could be setup a little cleaner and up to date.
> 
> PRTG brings a lot of value to our organization and it works well to notify our Department immediately when something is down. We have a critical need for this. Some of the user interface and customization for alerts could be better though.

-----

### "Awesome product to use" — 5.0/5

> **Harjot** | *15 April 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The monitoring system, dashboard, logs, patch management etc. I think I like all the features of PRTG.
> 
> **Cons**: I would say they should improve their Remote management system more. We cannot push the softwares directly from there.

-----

### "PRTG makes monitoring my network a breeze, keeping me informed and able to fix issues quickly." — 3.0/5

> **Laura** | *26 September 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customizable dashboards and alerts make staying on top of my network's health a cinch.
> 
> **Cons**: The learning curve was a bit steep at first, and I wish there were more pre-built sensor options.

-----

### "Monitoring with some limits" — 4.0/5

> **Rene** | *13 January 2024* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like the scheduled scanning with templates for specific ip ranges, so that even new servers/devices/components directly are monitored without forgetting them to add.&#10;&#10;Also the possibility to write own sensors with Powershell or other languages is very good.
> 
> **Cons**: Batch management is poor in some places. if you want to manage multiple servers at once it is possible at some places but there are limitations so that some task are pretty repetative if you need to add batches, or you have to use workarounds.
> 
> overall we are pretty happy with this product.

### "A simple and cost-effective way for traffic monitoring" — 5.0/5

> **Ahmad Fahmi** | *08 March 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy 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.
> 
> **Cons**: Not able to run on Linux or other non-Windows operating system.
> 
> The installation are pretty easy and operationally, it's easy to maintain as long as you have large disk space and good CPU resources.&#10;The monitoring is made easy with custom sensors and updated snmp library files.&#10;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.
