"SCOM's feature that notifies us when a server is down is not present in recent updates, which has weakened the product."

Beyond customizing the content, there should be the ability to customize the colors so that they can engage some priority and mark challenges separately."
"The GI is difficult to work with and the reporting servers are also difficult."
"It would be a much better product if Microsoft provided management packs with the product."
"It could use some system enhancements, such as better dashboards."
