Easy for installation monitoring solution
I’m looking for monitoring solution which meets following conditions
1. Easy for installation and maintain, the best online available in ROI
2. Monitor network devices like firewalls or switches
3. If possible monitor internet bandwidth
4. Can it check physical health of server (DELL and HP), especially detect HDD fault
5. Can it check backup status (I’m going to use Altaro Hyper-V backup).
6. Reasonable price
Could you advise please?

Do check out PAESSLER's PRTG Network Monitor, it has highly customizable interfaces and probes pretty much everything a SysAdmin would want, along with all the N/W Monitoring features.
Check features PRTG - network monitoring using SNMP, NetFlow, WMI and more and sensor types at their site PRTG Manual: List of Available Sensor Types
and find out more details also on independent reviews like the 2010-dated Review: PRTG Network Monitor | TechRepublic

We just deployed SolarWinds and couldn't be happier with it. It's bringing a ton of problems that we never even knew existed to our attention. Very, very easy to use and full featured.
I'm unsure of the price but it's definitely worth looking in to!
Update: Looks like ~500 device seats was around $9k for us. -

We use Solarwinds Orion as well. I personally love it but have no idea what our company pays for it. It has just about all the features you could want.

Around 20 servers and 10 network devices - 1.5K-2K Euro
GFImax will do it cheaply.
We use Kaseya for our monitoring but that cost us over £200k -

PRTG is awesome! Though, we just switched to SolarWinds and it's just as good.2017 Certification Goals:
