Spiceworks Network Monitoring Tool

Lol
It looks like I will follow the same decision as him soon -
It's a nice tool. Not as pretty as Spiceworks, but scales really well. It is more monitoring rather than discovery. A big piece of SW is that it does network discovery in a rather unique way. Both makes it very useful and very intensive.

Spiceworks network monitoring is a separate tool from the scanner.

Why would anyone outside of IT care about this? This is IT's decision.

And a bit of a resource hog. Opmanager is totally worth the money over it.

You'd need to get a quote for your network. It depends on what all you are monitoring.

Piss on that. As a vendor, you better give me MSRP on the website or I will be hard pressed to ever buy from you.

manage engine product almost all need quotes, they have so many different ways of licensing and addons and such. We just do the subscription based ones.

Yep - this is how I feel. Now, you might offer me better pricing once I contact you, but I probably won't even bother calling if there is no price on your website. (actually I knew there wasn't, which is why I asked - was really hoping @Jason would post whatever he paid and the quantity of devices being monitored).
-
I, too, am in the "no public pricing, no call from me" boat.

Let me get a rough, even really rough price to I know if I should even bother calling.
Though that said, I've seem some ridiculous prices listed on websites only to find out the standard pricing is almost always 50% or less than the pricing listed.

We bundle our subscriptions for Service Desk Plus, Opmanager and desktop central. Pricing is all together for us.

Kind of makes them not ready for the market then. Who would go down that path to even find out if they are viable? You need the pricing before even caring enough to do a free trial.

Products needing quotes to get the best price is pretty normal. But if there is no price to even give me a baseline, screw that.
Also, your specific example of ManageEngine has very detail base pricing right on their website. They are a great example of the right way to do things.
