Super interested in those footnote items!
Ongoing Initiatives:
Increased scalability per SolarWinds instance (target of 250k elements / instance)
Improved performance and decreased resource load times via analysis with SolarWinds DPA
Increased number of pollers possible per instance

Definitely would be great if they would stop the nickeling and diming concept of their product. Great product but does not scale well for a large enterprise network. Increasing the element beyond 250k would be even better! •Increased scalability per SolarWinds instance (target of 250k elements / instance)

I gave the feedback to the team that assisted me the other day.
Heatmaps - abaility to add walls to the configuration to give a better representation of the interference on the heatmap. Response to the maps are great. I use Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 as well, so I can compare the 2
Ability to view the data usage per client and number of clients connected to AP is great.

cobrien‌, please update the WWWO page for NPM, which still shows v11.0. We're already on v11.5.1 and I'd like to know what SolarWinds is planning for the upcoming release. Thanks!!!

I have been asked for this from my management. Correlating interface downtime with other events would be great. When a lot of us have multiple networks at a site (say MPLS links AND Internet DMPVN connections on two interfaces on the node. If I could do reports that reflected interface up / down that would help satisfy the need. this needs to be granular and possible to keep history and trends.

There is already a Feature Request for HMTL5 at
That feature request was placed over 1 1/2 years ago and has quite a bit of votes in favor. So, out of curiosity... does anyone know how many votes are usually needed before SW developers add a Feature Request to their to-do list?
