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."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"The ability to monitor any platform. We have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"DX UIM is 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."
"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."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"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 would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"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."
"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."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"They need a little more self-service."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
