JP Jitendra Kumar P. Team Lead Cyber Security Utilities Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 4/6/2026 "Easy SNMP & ICMP Monitoring for Network and Security Devices" 4.5/5 What do you like best about LibreNMS? Easy monitoring of network and security devices using SNMP traps and ICMP echo request/reply patterns.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LibreNMS? In my experience, MongoDB as used in LibreNMS isn’t very scalable for retaining large volumes of logs over long periods of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LibreNMS solving and how is that benefiting you? We monitor all of our network and security devices here to improve visibility, automate incident management, and keep a close eye on alerts.

RH Rodrigo Juan H. IoT Expert - AI Integrator Consulting Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 2/16/2023 "Great open source network monitoring tool" 5/5 What do you like best about LibreNMS? LibreNMS offers all the features you can find on any commercial network monitoring system. It's open-source, free to use, and a very active project with constant updates. Also, it's easy to install if you use the containerized solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LibreNMS? I can consume a lot of resources, especially CPU. So reserve the right amount of resources according to the size of your network (number of devices). I you use the containerized implementation, you will not have problems with upgrades. But if you are installing the software directly on your SO, you may experiment issues. So, make a backup before upgrading it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LibreNMS solving and how is that benefiting you? I'm using LibreNMS to monitor 1400 network devices, servers, and UPS. It's very useful for monitoring device availability, link performance, device issues, and so on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Network Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/7/2021 "Easiest network management system you will ever implement" 5/5 What do you like best about LibreNMS? LibreNMS comes ready to work out of the box with many different vendors, Whether Cisco, HP, Juniper, or any other brand it's likely supported. It is full of features you may never need for any device and can be integrated with tons of plugins to help with configuration management and weather mapping. Did I mention it's open source, heavily documented, and supports a variety of installation methods? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LibreNMS? It can be challenging to implement different plugins due to not having a lot of documentation or guides, which means you need to be technical to get some features out of it. I wish they had an all-in-one installation package that included all the necessary pre-requisites ready to go, such as a database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LibreNMS solving and how is that benefiting you? We can quickly get information from multiple devices you would generally need to implement with a template. For example, in Zabbix, I would need to make a template to grab power statistics for a Netonix switch which, with Librenms, I only need to add in the device to be monitored. We also get alerts about UPS that we have set up through routers now easy to know when a building is on battery and have time to run to the site before running out of power.
