"This solution has helped our organization by allowing us to have visibility. We deal with cybersecurity, so visibility is very important."
"It has a high-quality graphical interface."
"The containerization of different objects was very helpful in building an org structure. Being able to separately manage your MSP clients with separate visibility was also helpful."
"The capability of handling and monitoring with SNMP and working with the SNMP traps is much better than other products."
"The integration point."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"It's a good tool. It's simple to do the configuration."
"Scalability is a highly rated feature of this solution. It is better than some of the other tools that I've used in terms of scalability. We scaled it to tens of thousands of devices."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Currently, Broadcom Network Flow Analysis does not support high-availability solutions, making it an area that needs improvement."
"I would like to see more security features, like a lost protection package."
"The visual is a little archaic."
"I would like to see them eliminate the Java console. The user interface for this is a Java applet that runs on your desktop, and it is very problematic for us."
"Needs better integration with all the other products in the Agile suite of tools; anything they could do to make that less complex, would be great."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"It doesn’t give you performance metrics: You need CA eHealth for this."
"There's a little bit of complexity to the initial install because you're dealing with operating systems. You have to make sure all the prerequisites are done, anti-virus exceptions, etc. Then there's the bringing it up and then there's discovery of the network and setting that up. It takes time."
"We want to make our own choice for the AIOps solution and do not want to be forced to use the Broadcom OI solution by default."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
