What is Auvik

Auvik is a cloud-based network monitoring and management platform focused on automated network discovery, topology mapping, and performance monitoring. It is used by IT teams and managed service providers to monitor switches, routers, firewalls, wireless infrastructure, and key services across distributed environments. The product emphasizes rapid onboarding via collectors, SNMP-based monitoring, and configuration backup with alerting and reporting. It also offers traffic analysis capabilities (via flow data) and integrations for ticketing and notifications.

pros

Automated discovery and mapping

Auvik automatically discovers network devices and builds topology maps using common network protocols (for example, SNMP, LLDP/CDP where available). This reduces manual documentation effort and helps teams understand dependencies during troubleshooting. The mapping and inventory views are designed for ongoing change visibility rather than one-time audits.

MSP-friendly multi-tenant operations

Auvik supports multi-site and multi-customer monitoring with role-based access and standardized alerting/reporting workflows. This fits managed service providers and IT teams that manage many small-to-mid environments. Centralized dashboards and templated alert policies help scale operations without building a custom monitoring stack.

Config backup and alerting

The platform includes automated device configuration backup and change tracking for supported network hardware. Alerting covers device availability, interface status, and performance thresholds, with integrations to common ITSM and collaboration tools. These capabilities support incident response and basic network governance without requiring separate point tools.

cons

Limited deep application observability

Auvik is primarily oriented to network infrastructure monitoring rather than full-stack application performance and distributed tracing. Organizations looking for end-to-end service observability across applications, hosts, and logs may need additional tools. Its strength is network visibility, not comprehensive APM.

Dependent on SNMP and device support

Monitoring depth depends on device vendor MIB support, correct SNMP configuration, and network access from the collector. Some metrics and configuration features vary by hardware model and firmware. Environments with restricted SNMP usage or nonstandard devices can see reduced visibility.

Cost can scale with device count

Pricing commonly scales with the number and type of monitored network devices, which can become significant in large or highly distributed networks. This can make broad, always-on monitoring harder to justify for very large inventories. Teams may need to scope monitoring to critical sites/devices to manage spend.

Plan & Pricing

Pricing model: Quote-based / pay-as-you-go (device-based)

How pricing is determined: Auvik charges by the number of managed devices (network devices, infrastructure devices, and edge devices). Many device types (wireless access points, printers, UPS, IoT, etc.) are discovered and monitored for free and do not count toward licensing.

Published pricing: Auvik does not publish per-device or per-plan prices on its website. The public pricing page requires requesting a custom pricing estimate (contact sales) for a quote.

Volume / MSP: Volume discounts are available and Auvik offers pricing/packages for MSPs.

Billing notes: The Auvik agreement defines which devices are billable; official docs reference a minimum committed-device billing in customer agreements (details handled via sales/Customer Success).

How to get started / trial: Auvik provides a 14-day free trial (no credit card required; all features included) and options to request a demo or sandbox.

How to get a quote / contact: Visit auvik.com/pricing or contact sales@auvik.com / call listed sales number.
