Find out in this report how the two Network Management Applications solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The most valuable feature is automatic discovery."
"It creates transparency and makes everything work by being more transparent."
"It is very stable. We have not had any major issues in over 10 years."
"It's a good tool. It's simple to do the configuration."
"The product’s stability and robustness are valuable."
"I have found the cross analysis feature to be the most valuable."
"Topology creation is the most valuable feature."
"If you install one node on Network Node Manager and want to scale it up, it's pretty easy to create more nodes."
"The platform has good stability."
"It gives us a good overview of what's happening in our networks and the devices in the networks."
"It's quite a mature solution."
"A good enterprise-level solution."
"Real time network monitoring application: It is very stable, which provides quick root cause analysis (RCA) for any network faults."
"Our monitoring and network teams of less than 100 people use this solution. The availability and fault monitoring are good."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"For my use case, incident coordination was an area of improvement. The internal software engine for coordinating outages could use improvement because sometimes, we used to get false alerts for unrelated devices. They did a really good job of trying to make sure that you got one major alert and any of the subsequent devices downstream were just additions to that, but occasionally, the engine wouldn't properly catch the right things, and we used to get a flood of alerts."
"The interface is not nice and needs to be improved."
"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."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"Its visualization can be improved. It doesn't have a very advanced GUI. It is very basic and simple, but it does work."
"We have had one support issue that's been open for a couple of months, and it is currently open."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"The resources utilized could be a bit higher, and that is one of the challenges that isn't optimized"
"They should add AI options in the product's next release."
"Only to improve the GUI."
"Reporting. Even though this is available in separate software (iSPI) there is potential in making the reporting more SLA-aware and more intuitive."
"Right now, we have open tickets and they are not closing as expected."
"The deployment architecture and installation part needs improvement."
"The way the solution currently works means I'm not able to customize my own reports."
"The dashboards are not customizable and it's not user-friendly."
