Entuity Reviews & Product Details

Entuity offers a very strong SNMP polling capability and provides robust network visibility. It also supports SD‑WAN and Cisco Meraki devices, which are not commonly supported by many other monitoring tools. In addition, Entuity now includes configuration management capabilities and can be easily customized to meet specific operational and business requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the moment, Entuity offers limited support for configuration management. We still need additional functionality—such as IOS upgrades and more advanced configuration workflows. Strengthening these areas would be very helpful, since it would enable us to rely on a single platform for both network monitoring and configuration management.

It can be a good central repository for storing and monitoring network switch configurations if it knows how to talk to your switches. It can collect information about network congestion and hardware issues.

It helped identify network loops / changed trunks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Painful to configure. It required hours and hours of work to try and collect information from our switches and was never fully set up.

Licenses get consumed quickly and are not cost effective.

Onboarding was long calls working with a technician to figure out how to communicate with each model switch. We never even got to working on monitoring servers before we gave up.

Could never integrate monitoring of an Oracle enviroment the way we wanted.

UI was not always intuitive. Had to hunt/remember where to set things up.

Thank god it did not have AI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Entuity is very customizable and allows for very nuanced setups. It supports a number of different IT platforms like storage, wireless APs, VMware, AWS EC2, and switches. With the ability to support many different platforms, it offers a mythical single pane of glass to monitor the environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is very customizable, but there is a learning curve to it and to an extent a "Entuity" way of doing things. Some of the GUI interfaces are a little long in the tooth. Longterm an overhaul and realigning of the GUI would benefit users of the product. Some of the menu options are not as intuitive as I would like. I would like to see Entuity embrace some of the AI that is permeating other areas of IT and add the ability to create natural language queries, new alerts, monitors this way.

It enhances network reliability and operational efficiency through intelligent, scalable monitoring, reducing the need for manual configuration while still providing accurate, near-real-time insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Looking forward to enhanced support for configuration management features, along with improved multi‑customer support and increased maximum device scalability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s an all-in-one tool with reports, dashboards, and summary metrics. It’s easy to use and makes it simple to get a clear overview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In some ocassion the information in "how to apply" some configuration is not easy to see in the website. We need more information for "how to" or video tutorial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

its great versatility and functionality when it comes to monitoring networking devices Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Price and the fact that it doesn't yet integrate with the Oracle cloud. It needs the Dev Team to develop a search menu to filter by Dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A solid tool for discovering devices and monitoring network devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m currently exploring this tool for configuration management. While it does support configuration management, there are still many features that need to be incorporated so users can make broader use of the tool.

Would like to high light the drawback of using Active Active setup for config management.

Device onboarding capacity to be scaled from 1000 per server

Concurrent session count to be scaled Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The layout and ease of access administrative modules Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Switch configuration and port mangement features could be a bit better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It supports multiple vendors and now also includes support for polling telemetry data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As BT hosts more than 50k devices, managing servers and handling upgrades becomes difficult, since a single poller can support only 1k devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The deployment of ENA has allowed us to retire multiple other products and reduce the number of management IPs we have to configure in SNMP from 7-9 down to just two. Since that initial deployment, we have expanded it's use globally we allowed us to retire an additional 7 tools.

Possibly more than technical side, the relationship we have been able to build with the owners, Park Place, and the level of access to development and their senior leadership team as mean that we continue to get to steer direction on new features in the product to make sure it fits our needs as a service provider. I believe this is the best partnership we have had with any vendor in our history. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest challenge is lack of name recognition as we leverage ENA as part of the services that we provide to our client base. From targeted marketing or more highly visible partnerships, the Entuity name needs more recognition in the IT Network world. They were purchased by Park Place a few years ago which has helped in some areas but not in the area of name recognition in the monitoring space.

One other area of concern, which is likely true with many vendors, but something we didn't used to see with the Entuity folks is they tend to defer instead of just coming out and saying 'no' to some questions. If we are asking for them to support something new that doesn't make sense to them we would appreciate a more open and honest answer. I recently met with their executive team and got those answers that their engineers will no longer provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
