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."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"It is simple."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"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."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"They should add CLI command modes and scripts for high performance."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"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."
"They need a little more self-service."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"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."
