I have been using Domotz for 5+ years and it is amazing
What do you like best about the product?
Domotz is an amazing product. I began using it when I had a small consulting business and it was really useful to provide monitoring for devices and to see how many devices are on the network. The remote access was also very useful for quick fixes and reboots of routers and other devices.
But where it came into its own was when we were having a dispute with our ISP with regards to our ongoing connection speed. The sped test had been running for multiple years at the site that we were having an issue with degraded performance. I took the speed graphs and you could see a major step down in overall speed after a specific date. Our ISP said that there was no issue and no change in our speed. When we presented the graphed data where you could clearly see the step down in performance over a period of time, even with individual ups and downs. Once they saw this an investigation was performed and our speed was restored. Domotz paid for itself for a number of months just from this issue being solved.

What do you dislike about the product?
I dont really have any negatives. I did find that the network security did not work as I expected but I am fairly sure that this was my fault for not spending enough time on it. I have added the ubiquity integration to the dashboard but do not find this to be a significant benefit, but is not a negative either,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
monitor of the network and devices a big one for us is the monitoring and logging of our internet speed so we can use this to see if we have performance issues with our isp.

Great and Easy Monitoring Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Domotz has a very friendly user-interface, it has a web-app and a mobile-app, both offering support for dark mode. It recognizes new devices immediately with sending a push notification to the mobile devices, so that in case of an unauthorized access the necessary steps can be taken. I am using the platform since 2016 and since then it has been continuously being enhanced with new features. Domotz also has a lot of integration into Microsoft Teams, Slack, Wehbooks, Telegram and many others. Even Node-Red has a compoment for Domotz. The Domotz agent can run on multiple platforms like Synology, Qnap, Raspberry Pi, Microsoft or you can simply use the Domotz Box as a hardware appliance. Next to the device list with lots of information being gathered automatically upon device recognition, a network topology is shown, the network performance is constantly measured and there is a wide variety of customs and default alerts that can be defined, next to a lot of different reports, that are available. Also the support does a really good job with precise and fast responses. So Domotz is the best tool, that can be used for all kind of different network monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, Domotz offers all necessary functions for monitoring a network.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It gives a precise overview on all devices on the network, important devices can be checked for being alive with push notifications if a device becomes unavailable.
Network monitoring solution that meets all of my needs
What do you like best about the product?
A full-featured monitoring system is just the tool we needed. Integration with the Ubiquiti network simplifies the management of the system. Highly recommended for the enthusiast.
The dashboard puts the most important data right in front of your face, but the ability to dive in and, in certain circumstances, power cycle equipment remotely is quite useful.
It is very easy to set up with a variety of options to install agents. Synology, Windows and Home Assistant are the major apps of my interest.
More complete device identification including Type including (Appliance, Camera, Custom Device, Desktop, Generic, Heating & Cooling, Home Automation, Lighting, Mobile, Network Equipment, Notebook, Printer & Fax, Smart Power Plug' Tablet, Voice Control and Wi-Fi).
Highest device detection on my network at 27 alive and 34 offline vs 26 alive and 2 offline for another program.

Domotz Easy to Use Network Monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
Domotz has saved us tons of money over our previous network monitoring solution. It has an easy to use dashboard but also offers advanced features. We especially appreciate the outage alerts and the ability to access remote desktops right from within the Domotz interface.

There are not many things to dislike. Perhaps some of the custom monitoring is a bit complicated to setup.

Domotz and how it has eased my work.

Clients that don't need to be re-setup are all set up by the phone app rather than the local IP address GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notifying of internet outages and key devices going offline. Being able to connect to devices remotely when no VPN is set up.
