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 monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"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."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"Nagios XI is a simple monitoring tool with performance management."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"Since this is an open source technology, if we are capable of writing the plugins in any scripting language, this product allows us to monitor anything we want."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"I'd also like to see more probes. More probes in the sense that we were coming across devices that we're expected to monitor and manage for which, out of the box, there isn't a nice, clean solution. There are probes that are dedicated for certain devices and certain device types, which is great. But then there are times we come across nuanced products that we have to develop our own solution for. There are probes that exist in there that allow us to make a customized solution, but it takes a lot more time."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"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."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"The product uses the backend as Perl and could be modified to a more lightweight solution like what's being offered by other vendors."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
