## Reviews

### "Good IPAM Solution" — 4.0/5

> **Andreas** | *16 April 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use this tool as global IPAM solution also for automated processes and its working very good. API is clearly documented and support is always willing to help
> 
> **Cons**: Some usability concepts are not so common as compared to other IPAM products (e.g. Bluecat), which needs more time to get familiar with the concept (e.g. subnet move, split, merge).&#10;But support is always open for guidance and feature requests
> 
> We gained following efforts :&#10;- global IPAM solutions&#10;- active IP usability tracking (ping Sweep)&#10;- Service Now Integration (REST Integration)&#10;- Single Source of truth for network items

> 
> **Pros**: Easy installation, configuration, and ongoing management.
> 
> **Cons**: modular licensing for various components
>

### "Admittedly I have little experience with this software" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *10 April 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They had some interesting features, i like the rest API and the link to Jira.  They did seem very strong in the integration department.
> 
> **Cons**: The overall interface was not what we hoped for. It was difficult for us to find something and all the relationships that were important to us in an efficient manner. Too many click through steps.   We were looking for a more complete CI picture.
> 
> We never went past the review process.  It just wasn't bringing what we needed to move forward.  I

### "One of the best DCIM platforms out there with an API that allows great possibilities" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *21 May 2018* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One of the best things about Device42 is their amazing customer support; they are very quick to address issues and are always implementing feature improvements. Device42 also offers a one-stop-shop for all things DCIM, a robust IPAM, Password management, and additional add-ons such as power monitoring that has ultimately helped improve our workflow and organizational capabilities. Their auto-discovery tools are quite in-depth at pulling information from our devices.
> 
> **Cons**: With all software, there will be bugs and issues to workout, but Device42's willingness to tackle and improve upon their platform constantly is what keeps us coming back. Auto-discovery can be difficult to implement depending on the complexity of the environment but the addition of remote collectors has definitely helped.
> 
> This has become a tool to nearly everyone in the organization. It has allowed us to keep track of a very dynamic environment and ultimately improved user workflows. These types of benefits improve our quality of work and allow us to save time in many ways for other aspects of our business.
