We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and ScienceLogic 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."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"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."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"It is easy to implement."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"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."
"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."
"The only challenge that I have with this solution is the reporting part. The users are not really comfortable with the kind of reports they are getting. Sometimes, they want to see reports in their own format. Customizing those reports with Jasper is not very easy. It could be because of the knowledge gap. If you have the knowledge of how Jasper can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of reporting, it is good. There was a time a customer complained about one issue related to Netflow analysis. Broadcom has a separate model for that, but the customer wanted everything bundled together. It could also have IP management so that I am able to see or analyze IPs so that the IPs that are already in use don't get assigned."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
