Auvik reviews

Automated network monitoring with real-time mapping, for IT teams.

About

In practice. What you can do with Auvik.

Auvik automatically maps network infrastructure and updates it in real time with every device connection or disconnection, with over 64 preconfigured alerts and remote access (terminal, browser, tunnel) directly built in.

Pricing by billable device count (firewall, switches, routers — not workstations) remains predictable for a standard network, but rises for environments with many network devices. No mobile app for on-the-go monitoring.

Practical uses

Monitor performance of distributed networks.
Alert ITOps teams to network incidents.
Generate network compliance reports.
