We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum and ScienceLogic based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."
"Discovery: Scheduled, on-demand, synchronized with eHealth."
"Scalability is a highly rated feature of this solution. It is better than some of the other tools that I've used in terms of scalability. We scaled it to tens of thousands of devices."
"The most valuable feature is automatic discovery."
"I can use it to detect whenever things go wrong on my network."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"The main thing is obviously notifications about alerts, getting ahead of the curve to make sure that we do not have system going down, or if it is down we get to know it earlier."
"The quick notification of issues, quick alerting because timeliness is always valuable, it's very important for us."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"It is simple."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"From a functionality perspective, the product is not doing what it should. Also, there are some concerns about the accessibility. I would appreciate additional out-of-the-box troubleshooting scripts, like templates for addressing various issues. Currently, when troubleshooting online, I need to create my scripts. It would be beneficial if the platform could provide pre-built scripts or templates to help automate certain troubleshooting tasks."
"The platform is complicated to use."
"The visual is a little archaic."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
"The GIS map feature needs to be enhanced and synced with topology views of containers and global collections."
"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."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"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."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
