It depends
The problem dictates what feature must be utilized.
Documentation
logs... happy reading
Depends on what's being reported / issues going on. Logs are usually first place checked.
Log files ... event logs, application logs, database logs, etc.
NPM
As others have said, it depends on what the issue is.
Agree, no single answer is correct and you have to try & eliminate possibilities. Solarwinds is a good start when sifting through the issue, but you need infrastructure knowledge/experience to pinpoint the problem.

NetPath has saved my bacon many times!
My head.
Depends on the issue.
I prefer to wait for the Network Admin to start yelling and screaming. That's when I know everything is really going wrong.

Agree with @wkwittke and @jklundy but I answered PA because I believe it'd be generally most used from listed options
I am troubleshooting hardware and network operations issues without Hybrid Cloud Monitoring. The features noted provide much needed insight into our environment, including communications between application clients and servers, and related network traffic on the network for each. These give us tools to identify issues when troubleshooting problems within our environment.
Logic is the beginning of wisdom.
I depends on what the problem is .
I use lots of products to help troubleshoot. NPM in general is the one used most.
my gut!
Logs / Log Correlation
Yes. Primarily NetPath, but the answer is yes. It's always Network's problem until it isn't Network's problem.

Fear and loathing.
OIDS for Weird stuff.. LOL, how right you are. I cannot think of a better way to describe custom polling.
While a lot was missing, perfstack tends to drive through a lot of stuff to isolate many problems.
Depends on the problem. I have to build OIDs for weird stuff and help customers fix their maps and other pages. There is a lot of stuff we do.
All of the above except Hybrid Cloud Monitoring
I had to answer other to this one. I use Application Alerting to solve issues when something has gone wrong or is about to. I have used Performance analysis to prevent issues well in advance. Then there is the 'gut feeling' that you just get using experience and looking at all of the information as a complete picture. I wish there was an option for all of the above.
No single answer is correct in all situations
So many options missing.
Depends on the nature of the problem.

Alert Cleared.htmlHello, I would like to share the HTML template details we have prepared so that Solarwinds alarms can become more meaningful. It can list alarm object details and connected device details separately in HTML template. Except for object and device details, you can easily add custom property information…

SWQL is built on the framework of SQL and as such supports most of the standard clauses as part of a query. A very simple example query is: SELECT Caption, IPAddress, Vendor, ResponseTime FROM Orion.Nodes Dissecting this query is relatively straightforward: show some fields (Caption, IP address, Vendor, and Response Time)…
