## Choose a vendor that puts you first

### Transparent pricing you can see before the sales call

![Transparent pricing you can see before the sales call](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/resource/icon/pricing-plans.svg)

Motadata's pricing is not transparently published online, requiring direct sales engagement for a quote. In contrast, OpManager's pricing is fully published on our store page, starting at just $245/year for 10 devices. Licensing is clear: pay per device, with unlimited interfaces and sensors included. For perpetual licenses, an Annual Maintenance and Support (AMS) subscription covers product updates and technical support. Subscription editions include support and upgrades by default. Everything is outlined upfront—no unexpected add-ons, no last-minute cost escalations.

### Feature completeness out of the box

![Feature completeness out of the box](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/resource/icon/stack.svg)

OpManager includes a discovery rule engine, network path visualization, storage monitoring, data center visualization, Dell VxRail (HCI monitoring), visual workflow builder, and AI NLP-based query interface—all standard. With OpManager, you get an end-to-end network monitoring solution from day one.

### Proven at enterprise scale for over two decades

![Proven at enterprise scale for over two decades](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/resource/icon/boot-strapped.svg)

OpManager has been trusted by enterprises worldwide since 2001, with 1,010+ verified reviews on Gartner Peer Insights and recognition in the Gartner NPMD Magic Quadrant. Motadata is growing in regional markets but has a smaller global footprint and fewer independent verifications of enterprise-scale deployments. When uptime matters, choose the platform with a proven track record.

## Why switch from Motadata?

Motadata requires you to contact sales for pricing, which is tiered by devices, log volume, and modules—making it hard to predict your total cost. OpManager is straightforward: **$1,845/year** for **250 devices**. And you get more for that investment: advanced network performance monitoring, complete network visualization suite, storage monitoring, a drag-and-drop workflow builder with 100+ actions, mobile apps, and perpetual licensing options—all features Motadata either doesn't offer or gates behind additional complexity.

## What can OpManager accomplish?

### Network Monitoring

#### Network performance monitoring

Monitor critical metrics like latency, jitter, packet loss, and bandwidth utilization across your entire network. OpManager tracks performance at the device and interface level with near 3,000 metrics out of the box. Get instant alerts for downtime, QoS violations, and performance degradation—all from a single pane of glass.

![Network performance monitoring](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/alternative-to-motadata/wan-call-performance.webp)

#### Network path visualization

Map WAN paths on a hop-by-hop basis using Cisco IPSLA technology to pinpoint exactly where congestion or packet loss is occurring. Monitor response time, jitter, and packet loss across each hop to troubleshoot WAN performance issues faster.

![Network path visualization](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/alternative-to-motadata/path.avif)

#### Traffic and bandwidth analysis

Gain deep visibility into network traffic with support for NetFlow, sFlow, jFlow, and IPFIX. Analyze bandwidth utilization by device, interface, application, and user. Identify top talkers, traffic spikes, and abnormal patterns. OpManager's traffic analysis helps you optimize performance and plan capacity before bottlenecks occur.

### Infrastructure & Servers

#### Physical and virtual server monitoring

Monitor CPU, memory, disk, process, and service metrics across Windows and Linux servers. Track VM performance for VMware, Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, and Nutanix hypervisors. OpManager provides real-time visibility into server health with agentless monitoring via WMI, SNMP, and CLI.

#### Storage monitoring

OpManager monitors fiber channel switches, storage arrays, and tape libraries with dedicated performance metrics. Track capacity utilization, growth trends, and hardware health to prevent storage outages before they happen. Motadata does not offer dedicated storage monitoring—a critical gap for data center operations.

![Storage monitoring](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/alternative-to-motadata/sm-dashboard.avif)

#### Data center visualization

Build a virtual replica of your physical data center layout with OpManager's 3D rack and floor plan views. Monitor device status in real-time within the physical context of your racks and rows. Drill down from floor view to rack view to device snapshot on fault. Motadata does not offer 3D data center visualization.

![Data center visualization](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/alternative-to-motadata/dc-rack-view.webp)

#### Hardware monitoring

Collect temperature, voltage, battery, fan, and power supply health data from critical infrastructure. OpManager's hardware sensor monitoring helps you prevent environmental failures before they impact uptime.

#### Auto-remediation on alerts

Trigger scripts, restart services, create tickets, or run workflows automatically when thresholds are breached. OpManager orchestrates first-level fault troubleshooting without human intervention, reducing MTTR and freeing your team for higher-value work.

![Auto-remediation on alerts](https://www.manageengine.com/network-monitoring/images/alternative-to-motadata/notification-profile.avif)

#### Adaptive thresholds and performance forecasts

OpManager uses machine learning to calculate and update multi-level alarm thresholds every hour, cutting down false positives. Forecast Alerts predict when CPU, memory, and disk resources will be exhausted—giving you time to act before outages occur. Zia Insights provides remediation suggestions based on historical patterns.
