I'm happy & very satisfied using NCM, feeling safe that in case any of my network devices failed, i can retrieve its configuration easily & even comparing it to older ones, as i can customize it up to a daily config backup task, also being able to push scripts to the NCM added devices makes life much easier & more centralized, saving effort & time.
Pros
I've been using NCM for more than 4 years now & i'm currently using its latest version 2020.2.6, using the license of 1000 allowed number of nodes, and i can say it is a module you can rely upon to maintain your Network devices configuration backed up continuously, i am having a daily backup of all the devices configuration & also can push any script into any added devices easily, saving time & effort.
The support is very good & helps fixing any issue i may face, and also the forums community can provide quick solution when needed.
Cons
There is actually nothing i don't like about it except for its cost, and also for the admin using it, must be having a decent knowledge of SQL DB, yet their support can always help

Solarwinds network configuration manager works well in automating the backups from devices and managing the configuration changes but lacks in terms of maintaining decent GUI and weak in maintaining compliance management.
Pros
Solarwinds network configuration manager does an excellent job when it comes to automating the backups which make things easier. It does perform well in reporting and helps a lot in terms of compliance management.
Cons
Solarwinds NCM product needs efforts as compared to products in terms of maintaining the server, looks traditional in GUI, and recommends upgrading more about its thwack community.

Pros
solarwinds network configuration manager allows us to take backup, monitor if any change in configuration has occurred and it was done by who and it also provides very good reports which we can modify according to our needs.
Cons
we were unable to purchase this software as it is very costly software but the time I spent on its trial period, the results were very outstanding and unfortunately we had to skip this as it was going out of our budget.

NCM is a must have for any environment
Reviewed on 2018/02/01
Pros
If you run more than 5 devices you need this tool. With the ability to automate backups of iOS of the Cisco and other supported devices like HP and others you save time and money, it keeps a history and allows you to quickly restore a previous image. It also documents any and all changes to the device.
Cons
Really there are not many. Price is about the only complaint, its expensive. I have found that often Solarwinds is very proud of their software and think it needs to bring top dollar.

Network Configuration Manager is an amazing tool
Reviewed on 2020/12/11
Pros
I have used several tools to manage various networks and perform deployments but Network Configuration Manager is an amazing tool to manage almost every require activity however its best feature is to upgradations of firmwares in one go and does not require to be choose one connected device and distribute the file which can be time consuming but in this tool we can manage and upgrades firmware very easily, I can say its a time saving and less effort tool
Cons
It is very easy to integrate with any network and it has an ability to sync its parameters although the log files view is not very much eye catching and its should be more precise and every field should be clear and highlighted as per my point of view perhaps its a very nice tool
