### "PRTG Network Monitor is a powerful tool" — 5.0/5

> **Matthew** | *07 July 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease to implement and on-board new devices into the portal. The out-the-box templates are also very good and enable us to monitor in-depth services with ease

### "PRTG Review From a sales manager of PRTG" — 3.0/5

> **Mauricio** | *16 October 2023* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What my customers like most about PRTG is that it allows them to maintain a general overview of their overall infrastructure. This way, if they have any incidents or alerts, they can respond quickly. They also appreciate the product's price-to-quality ratio, as the price per node is approximately $3.
> 
> **Cons**: My customers' biggest complaint about this tool is that it lacks a wider range of features compared to its competitors. This is because it is literally only for monitoring. It does not allow me to remotely intervene in my infrastructure or make adjustments online. For this, I need to have other third-party tools to complement PRTG.
> 
> In general, PRTG is a very good product if you are looking for an option to monitor your infrastructure. It has interesting dashboards and templates that are quite good for creating management reports.

> 
> **Pros**: Monitor all the connections and devices that we use in all the company
> 
> **Cons**: It takes some time to setup each connection or device that wants to monitor

### "Fast and easy to set up monitoring" — 5.0/5

> **Warren** | *11 March 2024* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: Some advanced features like the ability to set up auto-remediation of issues would be nice, as would the ability to use PRTG behind Cloudflare.
