"DX UIM is scalable."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"It reduced cycles for a lot of quick out-of-the-box functionality. It also allowed us to get away from being stuck in SNMP, VTP V2, based off of agent deployment."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."
"Nagios XI is a simple monitoring tool with performance management."
"The most valuable features of Nagios XI are you can customize it based on your use case and requirements. It is flexible and easy to integrate with our systems. You can customize the solution by adding additional features using code."
"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"You want to monitor a specific metric that nobody else has? You can do it even with the most basic of scripting skills, and you can always share it with the vast community of Nagios Exchange."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"I'm very happy with DX Unified Infrastructure Management, but what could be improved is its user interface because currently, it has many wide spaces. All the information you need is in DX Unified Infrastructure Management, and it's a reliable tool, and though that's more important than the gaps in the user interface being smaller or wider, those gaps still need some improvement. I know the team is working on it. My company had some backend problems with DX Unified Infrastructure Management in the past that have now been solved. The setup for the tool also needs improvement because it's complex. Another room for improvement in DX Unified Infrastructure Management is its technical support because it's sometimes not as knowledgeable or responsive. What I'm suggesting to be added to the tool is an open-standard ELK Elastic-based database where you can put in all data, so that you can use the data in other systems as well."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"Stability."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"We often need to develop custom plugins to get Nagios to work the way we want it to work because the features we need are not always available in Nagios."
"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."
"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."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
