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 event correlation mechanism."
"As the kind of enterprise that straddles the line between telco size and enterprise size, it scales for us, because we're not all the way at telco yet."
"The quick notification of issues, quick alerting because timeliness is always valuable, it's very important for us."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"The fault management is perfect."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The integration point."
"We can monitor MPLS network VPN, network configuration, and backups. It's highly scalable for network configuration management."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"The power flow is great."
"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."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"Power packs."
"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."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"I would like to see better scalability, and maybe, a more intuitive user interface. "
"I would like to see them eliminate the Java console. The user interface for this is a Java applet that runs on your desktop, and it is very problematic for us."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"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."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"They need a little more self-service."
"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."
"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."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
