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 automatic discovery."
"It's a good tool. It's simple to do the configuration."
"Spectrum is very useful for us, because the product lets us monitor and control all the various components of our infrastructure that support our business from an IT perspective."
"The capability of handling and monitoring with SNMP and working with the SNMP traps is much better than other products."
"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 is very stable. We have not had any major issues in over 10 years."
"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."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"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."
"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."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"The upgrade process could be smoother. More of the steps around upgrading could be automated."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
"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."
"There's a little bit of complexity to the initial install because you're dealing with operating systems. You have to make sure all the prerequisites are done, anti-virus exceptions, etc. Then there's the bringing it up and then there's discovery of the network and setting that up. It takes time."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"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."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
