It is a pleasure to use
I have been working in this field for more than 5 years, and everyone knows that you have to monitor the established IT infrastructure at all times. There are many solutions like PRTG, but I prefer PRTG, which is chosen with both the convenience of the interface and a lot of features. It was very easy to set up and manage. And one of my favorite parts is that you can use licenses that are suitable for your environment, even if your environment grows in the future, there is no need to rebuild the license accordingly. I think the monitoring application is very important from the point of view of security and stability, and PRTG is the most suitable and convenient for me among these applications.
Pros
It was very easy to use in the first turn, moreover, it has sensors suitable for the desired device.
Cons
There are many network monitoring tools like PRTG, but PRTG had the most convenient and easy-to-use interface among them. It has many good features. I've been using PRTG for several years now and I'm very satisfied. There's nothing I don't like about it.

Easy to implement, web based and nearly agent less monitoring
It was easy to install and manage, it's helpling a lot with monitoring and alerting and it's aeasy to use. Also to adapt or tweak thresholds is very easy.
Pros
It's very easy to implement and for a lot of the user cases it does not need an agent or software to be installed
Cons
For well known Enterprise Products e.g. VMWare VCenter there are only limited intergration available.

PRTG Network Monitor is a powerful tool
This tool has saved us a lot of time with configuration of in-depth service monitoring
Pros
The ease to implement and on-board new devices into the portal. The out-the-box templates are also very good and enable us to monitor in-depth services with ease
Cons
Bespoke and customised service monitoring is a bit complicated and it would be nice to have more comprehensive documentation on this

My go-to monitoring solution for almost 10 years
I have been extremely happy with PRTG for the close to 10 years that I have used it. It has been extremely reliable, which is paramount for a tool you are using to monitor your entire network.
Pros
I love how easy it is to get rolled out and customized to work for pretty much anything with an IP Address. Real-time and historical data that is provided in PRTG is invaluable.
Cons
While this is not necessarily it's intended purpose, the Syslog/SNMP sensors could use some work to make it easier to use them as a collector/trap for historical logs.
