Thank you ... you were right... the question was easy ... but I have halted my arrogance ... I now want to get every question right, so I take a few more minutes.. there is no reason to get it wrong and miss out on the points! You have no idea ... after the data center cut... I got some rest .. and am no longer rushing to…

Sprichst du Deutsch?

Thanks for the additional info @"cheryl1" - can't wait to upgrade!!!

Congratulations @"ChrystalT" ! You are my hero! I LOVE SOLARWINDS!! (add to dictionary) I too have worked my way to my 2nd dream job #1 would be working for SolarWinds! I am so proud of what I have done for my Organization that stems to my Community! I have never had such great tools to make me look good! You inspire me…

As .. I may have to change my current platform .. Brocade broke up .. and it is breaking me up .. lack of support .. lack of pride .. lack of customer service ... I am headed back to Cisco .. I do believe

Glad you posted the above rschroeder ! I saw the comment regarding points, and the inability to gain momentum, and thought ... "you are not a true thwackie yet" There is so much to do, so much to read and learn, I wish I could spend all day Thwacking around! This is quite a nice game; I look forward to what is going to…

Work ethic!!! What filthy language! I am so pleased that the buck now stops with me. If I did not do it, then I will take full responsibility! If you do not allow me to do my job, well, that will be documented too! I imagine it is easy to get into a rut, I am too hyper for that to happen, thank goodness!

I told you to use Google!! an extended period of recreation, especially one spent away from home or in traveling the action of leaving something one previously occupied

Congratulations ya'all - have a good time!! Totally jealous!!!

Thanks everyone for sharing the correct link for hint today!! I really like SolarWinds 404 error page!!!

I was allowed recently to fight for the right ... to decrease the data center footprint. We just built a new facility. The space allocated was tremendous, and I had to use documentation being pushed by the Feds and I had to bring other folks to the party to explain why we no longer required such a massive space to operate…

I have noticed other vendors using Evangelist to describe themselves... we must note it started here at SolarWinds first! You all are the original Evangelist! And .. wow.. there is a lot of info... thanks @"ChrystalT" - I do look forward to your postings!

 I like the new look and feel. Sorry for your inconvenience, but out of every situation comes an opportunity! I see all the hard work and effort that has gone into this fabulous platform, and am amazed at what you all have done in such a short amount of time. These times are hard, and I would like to thank every employee…

Registered!!!

Wow, you hit the nail on the head. I often have to remind management that the cost of one breach could cost us more than all the tools that I ask for in order to be proactive. It is not EVER a matter of IF, is is ALWAYS a matter of WHEN! I appreciate this article, and will use points you have made to add as an argument to…

Because I just deployed a new site, I am a little behind... BUT... SOON, I will have all the documentation back up to snuff. I would also like to put an emphasis of network diagrams, but 10,000 foot level as well as detailed diagrams. I get audited every year by the state. Another point to bring up... auditors are now…

thank you!

I am glad that I am not alone .. I really thought more people would be using SD-WAN ... these surveys have been eye opening!!!

oh man .. you got me!

Good job .. I like the screen shots .. very helpful information

I am also looking for side by side comparison of vendors. Nice article ..

right!

Thank you! Thank you very much!!! We cut over the end of November, I am just now able to look back and really appreciate the new facility and what all the hard work accomplished. It was a nightmare with stress and the unknown variables that others would throw in my court! I am my worst enemy... but I am going to give…

I am the simple technician! Nice info .. I can relate!! THANK YOU!

What fun this mission was! I finally ordered my THULE backpack! Thanks @"kpina" Fun = Internet Points = free stuff! Could life get any better!!! Blessed to be part of such an amazing community. No matter how messed up my day gets here at work, I can divert to THWACK for a few minutes, gain my composure, then go back at the…

Wow .. all these great comments ... I have been holding off on the upgrade ... now I can't wait!!! Thanks for the feedback ... always good to have some feedback before you venture!!! Thanks everyone for sharing! Will post my experience after I have completed... I have noticed ... every time I upgrade... things get better,…

Great information, I have already forwarded to my team! Thanks for taking the time to put this information together john.maxwell

I agree about the interruptions, but you can never beat asking a question live!

I agree, all options above would be helpful; I am not surprised on the focused response! Nice question!
