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."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."
"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"Technical support is great."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"Nagios allows us to configure any device so that we can send pager alerts when people don't have access to emails. It also allows us to schedule downtime and maintenance."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"The Script Module in Nagios is really easy to use and is really cost efficient."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"Stability."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"I would like to be able to extend it to all of our data centers, whether they are in the cloud or not. It would be helpful if I could connect everywhere."
"Improve the documentation, examples, and best practices, therefore users can understand how to do things."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
