"It is easy to understand and determine when and/or where the network is failing."
"The stability of the product is key. It never breaks, really. The stability and reliability of the Spectrum product have been top-notch."
"It does correlation so instead of producing 20 alarms if a site goes down, it only creates one."
"It is very stable. We have not had any major issues in over 10 years."
"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."
"It creates transparency and makes everything work by being more transparent."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."

"Make it easier to certify devices."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"Our consultant was four months on-site doing Spectrum setup and working through issues."
"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."
"The interface is not nice and needs to be improved."
"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."
"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."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"They need a little more self-service."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
