"A great combination of simplicity and utility"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

The ability to develop custom probes and add our own scripted actions to handle alerts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

The FreeBSD version was discontinued some time ago so we're limited to running InterMapper on a dedicated Linux, Windows, or MacOS system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use, Nice Graphical Interface, Could Use Some Modernization"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

Intermapper is very easy to use, is responsive, and it's easy to write new SNMP-based probes. The graphical interface makes it easy to see and understand how different network components connect to each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

No Android/IOS app. Making changes to many devices at once is more complicated than it should be. It would be nice to have an Alerts template for each probe type, or for each map. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Could not imagine managing a network without it."
What do you like best about Intermapper?

I had used Intermapper for several years while working on a federal contract. After accepting a new job and finding they did not have the software, my first recommendation to my new Director of IT was to purchase it. After 4 years of using it, the team does not know how they managed using only a competitors alerting tools. There is no substitution for having a visual real-time representation of my network status... and its pretty impressive having hundreds of nodes spread out over multiple maps in our operations center. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

We use Intermapper remote clients on 4 different workstations. Making changes on one work station does not always update the same on all screens which sometimes requires that all the clients be closed and reopened to determine which map is correct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"InterMapper is great, but not perfect."
What do you like best about Intermapper?

I really enjoy the automated mapping provided by Intermapper, creating automatic network diagrams is very helpful and very awesome. The interface is also quite functional, if not pretty. I felt I was able to navigate and use the product as needed without a whole lot of learning or Googling. I was happy with the resource usage on our server for what we gained as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

I personally feel that the monitoring aspect of Intermapper felt a little flakey. Sometimes, my sensors would show a device as unreachable when it was in fact still reachable. Accuracy is the prime requirement for monitoring and it let me not to trust the sensors very much. If they can get monitoring to a point where it feels as robust as its competitors in this price range, they may have a top tier product on their hands. I will definitely be keeping an eye on this product for future updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intermapper rocks!"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

Easy to use and full-featured. Offers in-depth view of our network devices. Several options to alert us of problems. Wide range of SNMP probes that help get detailed information about devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

Development seems to have slowed since Dartware sold the product to HelpSystems. Still no provision for IM RemoteAccess on IOS and the web interface is limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One glance for status"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

I can see my complete network of schools and data closets at one glance. There is no guessing as to whether the network is functioning or not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

I could do without all the noises. I do have them muted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Network Monitoring Tool"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

Desktop application is cross platform, and easy to use. Alerts let us know when problems arise. Centralized location for ALL of our network monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

It can be a bit difficult to setup new devices with the appropriate probes. Organizing Maps can be difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"delivers but buggy and terrible license schema"
What do you like best about Intermapper?

Mac based software, easy to use UX to add objects to monitor, etc. Elaborate probes and good alerting functionality. The visuals of maps really help you identify where there are issues on the network, with the colors doing most of the talking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Intermapper?

Outdated product, has not been refreshed in years, no smartphone apps, difficult to use web interface, old bugs that the company is taking years to fix or ignores and worse of all, an archaic licensing system that is linked to some unknown HW MAC IDs, which if they change or if you need a new laptop, you have to send an email and wait to get a new license key. No self serve license management or online license check. Really outdated and annoying, especially when you need it most.

Also, you have to do your own probes, even for super popular brands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
