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."
"Spectrum is very useful for us, because the product lets us monitor and control all the various components of our infrastructure that support our business from an IT perspective."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"It does correlation so instead of producing 20 alarms if a site goes down, it only creates one."
"The Spectrum tool improved our network assurance levels for our business units."
"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"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."
"The quick notification of issues, quick alerting because timeliness is always valuable, it's very important for us."
"The product’s stability and robustness are valuable."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"I'm satisfied with ScienceLogicfor for what they can offer today because they can offer both serverless connectivity and agent connectivity."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"DX Spectrum could be improved by them getting rid of the Java console. It would also be better with Turkish language support."
"A better integration with the UIM, as far as being able to do root cause analysis and that type of analytics."
"DX Spectrum is stable. However, now and then there are some issues, but overall it is good."
"It's not a great performance management tool. Its reporting capabilities are not very good at all."
"There should be better integration with other Broadcom products, like network performance manager. Currently, for every part of a product, you need a separate server environment. You have something for Spectrum, you have something for network performance, and you have something for NetFlow. There are a lot of islands and server farms with different technologies. They should be redeveloped to get one platform for all."
"It takes some time to learn how to use this solution."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"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."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"They need a little more self-service."
