"It is easy to navigate."
"What I like best is the configuration management functionality."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to put health checks in place not only for the infrastructure but for some of the services that are on top of the infrastructure."
"It helps our NetOps group actually handle alarms in a way that lets them see the bigger picture of those alarms, and how they might affect our services. It helps us communicate information about the network state better to services that might be impacted by a specific network condition."
"It is stable for fault and availability."
"The platform has good stability."
"Our monitoring and network teams of less than 100 people use this solution. The availability and fault monitoring are good."

"Integration with some other tools, and integration with some Network Packet Broker, need some improvement."
"For us, the implementation was quite complex but it's because of the large number of different environments we're dealing with."
"As the technologies evolve, also these solutions or the monitoring tools should evolve to cover the progress in technology, including capabilities related to monitoring of virtualized devices today, as the DNS is on the table in this way."
"Micro Focus Network Node Manager is not powered to drill down for traffic visibility."
"The solution should integrate with NAC servers."
"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."
"The way the solution currently works means I'm not able to customize my own reports."
