"All networks (or network equipment) are monitored through CA Spectrum."
"We can plan changes and replacement of end-of-life products in our environment very well because it's very accurate."
"Spectrum is great for root cause analysis. It has excellent correlation event management. Spectrum's stability and scalability are also amazing."
"Offers a lot of functionality."
"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"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."
"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 tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"If the integration is simplified or improved, it will be a unique selling point in comparison to the competition on the market."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
"I would suggest improving the web GUI to improve the device monitor configuration and to improve or to integrate the new tool for reporting."
"The interface is not nice and needs to be improved."
"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."
"The solution could improve by allowing the ability to monitor the network shortly after installing the software and adding an auto-discovery function."
"For my use case, incident coordination was an area of improvement. The internal software engine for coordinating outages could use improvement because sometimes, we used to get false alerts for unrelated devices. They did a really good job of trying to make sure that you got one major alert and any of the subsequent devices downstream were just additions to that, but occasionally, the engine wouldn't properly catch the right things, and we used to get a flood of alerts."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"They need a little more self-service."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"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."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
