We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"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."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"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."
"The most valuable features are security and speed."
"The most valuable feature is high availability."
"The dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"We use Oracle Enterprise Manager for a lot of services like ERP and PLM."
"It's easy to implement as it's made by Oracle for Oracle."
"It is a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for managing database consolidation, something that has been missing and difficult to do."
"Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product."
"The product gives us as much control as we can have by providing a complete picture of the whole set of Oracle products."
"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."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's agents work with Java, and the Java code sometimes consumes a lot of memory on the CPU."
"There are limited numbers of other OEM devices that can be integrated into enterprise management that can be scaled by Oracle by adding other OEM devices to enterprise management."
"We could use it but definitely with some effort we can streamline much better and sometimes some box here and there, like 13C you have to really wait, but there are great features. Just have to make sure it is a stable product."
"The product must improve its support team."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"The solution is not as simple as people say it is."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
