"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."
"One of the things that I like about DX Infrastructure is that the topology is good enough to see what is happening in the infrastructure. You also get alerts if something is happening in the network. There are many features and benefits. It is serving our customers in knowing exactly how their network is performing in terms of reliability. It also helps them in planning the capacity. They know how much bandwidth the branches are consuming."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"The Script Module in Nagios is really easy to use and is really cost efficient."
"The features I've found the most useful are the plug-ins, the fact that you can connect almost everything to it. That's very useful."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"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 interface could be more user-friendly."
"The PNP4Nagios plugin not working easily with XI is an issue for me, because some open source monitoring plugins do not work out of the box. But in the end, you learn to live with it."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
