"DX UIM is scalable."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."

"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level."
"I would like to see some enhancement on the reporting side, such as making it a little bit easier to create reports or having a larger assortment of canned reports."
"Complex and overly detailed setup."
"The root cause analysis and installation faults are not clear."
"The integration with the APIs and the web servers deployed can definitely be improved."
"Technical support and releases are not particularly reliable."
"I think Solar Winds NPM needs to create a profile with documentation responsibility."
"The tool can only monitor up to 1000 instances in a single SolarWinds console. Customers may have over 1000 instances. Hence, it needs to support a minimum of 1500 instances. It should also improve support."
"The solution could improve in many areas, such as the marketing and description of the products, providing areas of improvement, cloud capabilities, and being able to be more streamlined with the current integration points with other applications."
