We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum and ScienceLogic based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"Spectrum does such a great job of discovering our network that we have a high confidence in what our inventory is."
"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"The solution's most valuable features are its integration with Broadcom tools and scalability."
"The integration point."
"The tool is very mature, and its valuable features are monitoring and configuration management."
"Spectrum is great for root cause analysis. It has excellent correlation event management. Spectrum's stability and scalability are also amazing."
"It creates transparency and makes everything work by being more transparent."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"Power packs."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"The power flow is great."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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."
"The GIS map feature needs to be enhanced and synced with topology views of containers and global collections."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"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."
"For us, the implementation was quite complex but it's because of the large number of different environments we're dealing with."
"The product should provide performance management features."
"We have had one support issue that's been open for a couple of months, and it is currently open."
"The platform is complicated to use."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
