Pros
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the fact that it sends me canned reports. It's easy to use and easy to update."

More CA eHealth [EOL] Pros →

"It's very easy to use.""Support is one of the best aspects of this solution. NetCool is a good product that has good flexibility. There are a lot of documents available online which is one of the best features of IBM Tivoli Suite. Whenever an issue happens, rather than going to technical support, if you find the exact issue in Google, you can get tech notes for that particular issue.""Anything is possible with Tivoli. It's quite a robust system.""It's very easy to use.""NetCool has a huge database that can collect and process about one million alarms a day.""The scalability of monitoring, the breadth of supported network components, the scale of the number of monitoring events, and the flexibility in customization make this a well-rounded product.""The solution has very good integration capabilities.""Tivoli NetCool allows us to grasp a lot of data that can be applied toward predictive analytics and auto-remediation."

Cons
"I would like to see improved index shifting."

More CA eHealth [EOL] Cons →

"Customization and integration that you need to do to make the product fit your needs is very complex. It is not a product that somebody could easily pick up without any prior training or experience.""The solution is not user-friendly.""The solution does not have any AI capabilities.""The installation could be simplified, and technical support could be faster.""In terms of improvement, I would like to see more AIOps, Artificial Intelligent Operations in the next release. IBM develops new features for Power BI or Cognos Analytics, which is good. As of now, we use Cognos Analytics, we are not using Power BI. They have the Insight concept but we don't like that.""Tivoli NetCool's has medium scalability - there are some problems with its replications not being mature.""The solution is too expensive.""The installation could be simplified, and technical support could be faster."
