I'd also be very interested in what's out there. I have similar grievances with InterMapper, but at this point, it sucks far less than anything else I've tried. I just poked around NetBrain's site and am immediately deterred by it's reliance on a Windows backend, so that's out for me. I did use OpenNMS for a while before switching to InterMapper, but ONMS's discovery/mapping was very broken at the time, it was a PITA to set up and manage and I don't know if it's gotten much getter in the last couple of years since. I've tried things like ManageEngine, but it's far too bloated and complex for what I need. On 2013-03-08, at 11:38 AM, Ben Bartsch <uwcableguy@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi all:
I'm looking for information anyone might have comparing Intermapper to NetBrain for NMS. Stuff like devices up/down, interface utilization, building maps for documentation, etc. IMO, Intermapper works great, when it works. Tech support has been slow and often cannot fix the problems, not to mention they release updates about once every other week.
Anyone familiar with any similar products? We are presently evaluating NetBrain and it seems really nice. We really like the Visio-like aspect of it.
Thanks!
