Effective monitoring of Windows Servers in SevOne,

We are facing issues with WMI polling which is breaking frequently and Windows Natively doesn't support SNMP v3( v2 is not needed as less secure) . 

What is the alternative solution to monitor the Windows servers in SevOne .

    Thanks @Guest There's still the unanswered question:

    "Were it not for the limitation of SNMPv3 not being natively supported by Windows, is it otherwise acceptable as a monitoring solution once enabled?"

    @Akhil Raj K R , I see Support has identified a workaround for the issue you reported and a defect is open. Please follow up with them for a maintenance request ifa hotfix were needed.

    Regarding SNMPv3 - were it not for the limitation of SNMPv3 not being natively supported by Windows, is it otherwise acceptable as a monitoring solution once enabled? If not, what are the major gaps?
