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 granular access control that it provided so that you could only see devices that were related to what you were working on was great. I couldn't see the entire inventory of devices. I could only see the ones that were related to my work. It has got a very granular access control component."
"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."
"It is easy to navigate."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"The presentation layer is pretty simple and straightforward."
"I have found the cross analysis feature to be the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"The monitoring just comes to us: "Oh, there's something wrong with that machine." It tells us. There are some 50,000 machines or so, all doing different things. And if they go down we hear about it."
"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 most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"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."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"I'm satisfied with ScienceLogicfor for what they can offer today because they can offer both serverless connectivity and agent connectivity."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"DX Spectrum is stable. However, now and then there are some issues, but overall it is good."
"Our consultant was four months on-site doing Spectrum setup and working through issues."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"I would suggest improving the web GUI to improve the device monitor configuration and to improve or to integrate the new tool for reporting."
"We have had one support issue that's been open for a couple of months, and it is currently open."
"Needs better integration with all the other products in the Agile suite of tools; anything they could do to make that less complex, would be great."
"The GIS map feature needs to be enhanced and synced with topology views of containers and global collections."
"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."
"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."
"They need a little more self-service."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
"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 should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
