"The tool is very mature, and its valuable features are monitoring and configuration management."
"The granular access control that it provided so that you could only see devices that were related to what you were working on was great. I couldn't see the entire inventory of devices. I could only see the ones that were related to my work. It has got a very granular access control component."
"What I like best is the configuration management functionality."
"Scalable and stable network monitoring tool with a simple setup."
"It has a high-quality graphical interface."
"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."
"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."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"It is simple."
"It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"Power packs."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It doesn’t give you performance metrics: You need CA eHealth for this."
"We have had one support issue that's been open for a couple of months, and it is currently open."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"Integration with some other tools, and integration with some Network Packet Broker, need some improvement."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."

"Make it easier to certify devices."
"The platform is complicated to use."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"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."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
