SolarWinds Customers Spread the Word!

Thanks for spreading the word about SolarWinds! You've spoken and we are listening to your every comment. Here's a few of our favorites so far:

"We used CA's Unicenter for years and were moderately happy with the product. We wanted to do more and spoke with CA about their new monitoring product at a cost of $45,000. They were nuts as far as we were concerned. We investigated and decided to go with Orion®. It has been fantastic. We ended up purchasing the unlimited product - it has done a great job for us. It provides all of our infrastructure monitoring."
– Jim Farmer

"First of all, every SolarWinds product I've ever used is extremely user-friendly and easy to get setup and running. The interfaces have always been very intuitive and the documentation thorough. From an installation standpoint, it really won't be any easier so, if you can't get Orion up and running, you should consider finding a new line of work."
– Rik Guyler

"Being part of a large school division, Engineer's Toolset sometimes comes in handy to find machines that are causing problems on the WAN. It has also come in handy in finding students using bandwidth to illegally download music. I would not trade SolarWinds for the world. I will continually sing its praises to the masses."

Tip: Orion's Map Maker Feature Helps Summit Electric Supply Monitor Regional Weather Patterns Affecting Remote Offices

Summit Electric Supply imports regional weather maps into their Orion interface to monitor weather patterns that threaten the network health in remote offices. This helps the IT department quickly determine if a network issue will pass as the weather passes, or if they have a more serious problem at hand.

Orion Scree Shot - Weather Maps

To use weather maps (or any map of your liking) to monitor the real-time status of nodes on your network, please watch our Map Maker video tutorial or read the step-by-step instructions in Chapter 6 of the Orion Administrator's Guide, "Creating Network Maps."
