I find visibility to be one of the greatest tools as a network manager. Netwrix gives me the ability to monitor file actions as well as account actions that may tip me off to a security breach on the network. Or, if an employee wants to know the exact reason a file went missing I am able to query Netwrix and provide an exact answer, even a screen capture of the event in progress if I wanted. With customizable notifications I am able to get on the spot information when specific events occur, like somebody attempting to log into a Domain Administrator's account without authorization. Though a little expensive, it is better to have the security Netwrix auditor provides than to allow a network breach go unnoticed until it is too late.
Pros
Easy to setup
monitor AD, Logs, Events, etc
customizable notifications
visibility into files, Group Policy, Active Directory, Office 365, Azure, etc
advanced features that help track down file actions, like screen captures or recordings of the actual event
Cons
The interface is sluggish
can cause some network interference if not tuned properly

Pros
Ease of use, the free use of some tools is very good, they have a wide range of tools available.
Cons
Licensing cost for Auditor, charging for every person in AD is crazy expensive when you have 1000's of accounts.

Netwrix auditor does what is needs to but watch out for hidden cost

Started off ok, but when the extra bill came and rude sales guy started in we were more than happy to turn this off. We moved to a fully managed SOC.
Pros
I liked I could get reports on who made changes to everything on my domain. I knew when someone adjusted a group policy, created a user, or made a change in SQL.
Cons
We set this up to monitor employees only. We did not want to monitor students or service accounts because of the extra cost. The count on the user side showed 2000+ and we were not licensed. I opened a support ticket with the company and was told not to worry about it because it would just not monitor any user because of the license. I didn't like the answer, but it was still monitoring so much more. Then a year later I was hit with a huge bill because we had 2000+ people being monitored. We decided to just turn of the service.
Reasons for Switching to Netwrix Auditor
The cost of Netwrix was way lower than these, but turns out it was way more because of licenses.- Industry: Oil & Energy

We used to use it for file servers, but since we've retired so many we only use it for AD changes, GPO changes and account auth events.
Pros
I like how reliably it reports all Active Directory changes
Cons
Setting up permissions for file servers manually because our team didn't feel comfortable allowing Auditor setting perms automatically.

Netwrix Auditor gives me unique insight into my environment. It catches and makes me aware of many things I don't have the manpower to catch on my own. It is an extremely useful tool.
