"It is easy to understand and determine when and/or where the network is failing."
"The solution's most valuable features are its integration with Broadcom tools and scalability."

"The most valuable features have been the interface and the ability to do equipment management."
"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 GIS map feature needs to be enhanced and synced with topology views of containers and global collections."
"I would like to see better scalability, and maybe, a more intuitive user interface. "
"The platform is complicated to use."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"The Spectrum OneClick is a Java-based client, and that's aging. Really, before any new feature integration, I'd love to see a comprehensive rebuild of the UI."
"From the users perspective the looks and feel of dashboards of Spectrum would be easier to use and for understanding as APM will be in 10.5 version which we saw in CA World."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
