Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Broadcom and others in Network Management Applications."The most valuable feature of this solution is the fact that it sends me canned reports. It's easy to use and easy to update."
"What I like best is the configuration management functionality."
"The monitoring just comes to us: "Oh, there's something wrong with that machine." It tells us. There are some 50,000 machines or so, all doing different things. And if they go down we hear about it."
"Allows us to have a single console/notification point, with the alarms of all the tools that we use for monitoring."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"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."
"Scalable and stable network monitoring tool with a simple setup."
"Spectrum is great for root cause analysis. It has excellent correlation event management. Spectrum's stability and scalability are also amazing."
"I would like to see improved index shifting."
"If they could interact with the MIBs of vendors better, and have a lot more pre-loaded ones, that would be amazing for us right now."
"Technical support for this product is not so good. It needs improvement."
"From a functionality perspective, the product is not doing what it should. Also, there are some concerns about the accessibility. I would appreciate additional out-of-the-box troubleshooting scripts, like templates for addressing various issues. Currently, when troubleshooting online, I need to create my scripts. It would be beneficial if the platform could provide pre-built scripts or templates to help automate certain troubleshooting tasks."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"I would recommend AI capability built-in so it becomes more predictable and we jump ahead of the curve. This is the one really important feature I would really like to see in any product that provides alarms."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
