"The capability of handling and monitoring with SNMP and working with the SNMP traps is much better than other products."
"Some of the most valuable features are it's highly scalable, the carrier is great, and if something has SNMP, it can monitor it. It's a great network fault management solution."
"I can use it to detect whenever things go wrong on my network."
"Allows us to have a single console/notification point, with the alarms of all the tools that we use for monitoring."
"It is very stable. We have not had any major issues in over 10 years."
"The Spectrum tool improved our network assurance levels for our business units."
"The fault management is perfect."
"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 best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"I'm satisfied with ScienceLogicfor for what they can offer today because they can offer both serverless connectivity and agent connectivity."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"The power flow is great."
"It is simple."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"The upgrade process could be smoother. More of the steps around upgrading could be automated."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"If nobody else has said the documentation needs improvement, let's go there. I understand, you can either write about it or you can do it. And most of us would rather they do it, but now that they've done it, those of us that didn't do it, we need to go and find: "Where did they write about this to tell us how to do it?" That's always lacking."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"If they could interact with the MIBs of vendors better, and have a lot more pre-loaded ones, that would be amazing for us right now."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"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."
