What’s Up Rises to Top in Bake-Off
CRN Tech put network management solutions up against one another and gave Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold Premium v11 first-place for its robust features, strong troubleshooting capabilities and comprehensive reports. Engineers were particularly impressed with its feature set, price/performance and integration capabilities, giving it top marks across those three categories. SolarWinds LANSurveyor 10 came second, with AdRem Netcrunch (personally I’ve not heard of this) third. The full article puts these solutions through their paces and is worth a read.

It’s strange that WUG was compared to Solarwinds’ LANsurveyor product. We use SolarWinds products including LANsurveyor and it maps our network topology. But it’s not really supposed to be a network monitoring product like SolarWinds Orion or ipMonitor. Maybe ipSwitch was afraid of what that comparison would look like.
