We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Nagios XI 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."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"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."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"The Script Module in Nagios is really easy to use and is really cost efficient."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"Nagios is stable and it's easy to use the monitoring software, which is why we chose this product."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"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."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"Stability."
"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 pricing has recently risen. I know they've changed what is covered under the license, however, it doesn't change the way we use it and adds nothing to our experience, and yet we now have to pay more."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"Nagios XI can improve network and hardware monitoring, these parameters should be simplified to allow usage for monitoring. Additionally, if there was automatic reporting it would be helpful."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The product uses the backend as Perl and could be modified to a more lightweight solution like what's being offered by other vendors."
