Orion Feature » Community Support

Obtain new resources from Thwack, SolarWinds online community, directly through the Orion NPM interface
Augment the built-in capabilities of Orion NPM with this assistance of a global community of network engineers

Thwack is a community website that provides SolarWinds customers with useful information, tools and valuable resources. Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) now integrates Thwack directly into its web interface, bringing new resources and helpful information directly to you. By deploying Orion NPM and using Thwack, you’ll be joining a community of more than 16,000 network engineers who can help make your job easier.

Having the power of thousands of engineers behind you brings many benefits, especially when it comes to sharing resources. On Thwack, Orion customers share everything from custom reports, custom alerts, and custom views to application monitoring templates.

For example, when other users create and publish universal pollers on Thwack, you can download them and import them into Orion NPM – not only saving you the trouble of defining a poller on your own, but also potentially revealing monitoring capabilities you didn’t know about. You can even publish or download custom combinations, transformations, reports, and alerts that you or other users have found useful.
