### "it helped me a lot to see who changes what because of many people working without documenting"

July 24, 2017

5.0

Less headache and safety.

Pros

it gives you the complete visibility to the systems you are responsible for , even those which aren't auditable.

Cons

If the roles are not properly set I mean policy wise not technically related to netwrix you can see the things you are not supposed to.

### "Fantastic Auditing Software"

July 17, 2017

5.0

Monitors our file servers, AD changes, and SQL and Sharepoint changes.

Pros

Very flexible and can audit about any event possible on the network. We mostly use it for a Windows environment.

Cons

Cumbersome initial configuration...very expensive. Licensing is per AD-user so you will need to keep your directory cleaned up.

### "File Auditing made simple"

September 7, 2018

5.0

Netwrix File Server Audit was far the most straight forward and least resource overhead. It just worked straight away, created a plan and job done.

Pros

Easy to deploy. Very customisable. Support good. Reasonable costs.

Cons

I haven't found a con as yet. The reporting can be a little confusing to start.

### "Our experience with Netwrix has been great!"

July 17, 2017

4.0

Pros

Fairly easy to use and setup. Netrix lets us know each year that the renewal is coming and works with us to get the renewal done.

Cons

Don't like that the Password Management component is going away. This is a convenient way for users to have a self-service password change solution for remote users.

### "Easy to get a quote, easy to install, and easy to use"

July 17, 2017

3.0

Pros

Does what it advertises - alerts and reports on active directory events. Support is included with initial purchase.

Cons

changes from 8.5 to 9 were pretty drastic with no reason, emails, or help to the changes. Support is ok, but slow and no followup

### "Great Tool for Monitoring Systems"

August 15, 2019

4.0

Overall the experience was good and I have found great use with some of the free tools that are also available.

Pros

The software is easy to setup and configure. It ties directly into the domain to provide a wealth of information and help you easily spot trouble areas.

Cons

The software comes with way more than you may need or use so it feels a little bloated.

### "Must have tool for any company in need to control access to corporate unstructured informaiton"

July 17, 2017

4.0

Real visibility into changes to our AD environment and exactly who and when documentation is accessed.

Pros

Easy to install and within the various reports and settings. The single server and well-integrated platform is robust.

Cons

The additional setup to monitor auditing on servers is very time consuming. This should be automated.

### "Happy, just need to spend the time to become more familiar with the software"

July 17, 2017

5.0

Ability to monitor logins and failed login and the ability to audit our file servers for access.

Pros

Really liked how easy it was to get everything setup. Sales team was very helpful and prompt. Like the clean interface and so far things have been pretty self-explanatory.

Cons

The amount of data is overwhelming! I need to more spend more time tweaking things and taking the time to build some custom reports to filter out some of the 'noise'.
