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."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"It is easy to implement."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"The most useful aspect of this solution is the ability to customize it for the client agent."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"You want to monitor a specific metric that nobody else has? You can do it even with the most basic of scripting skills, and you can always share it with the vast community of Nagios Exchange."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"The dashboard allows you to see what's going on in the overall system."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"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 biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"I'm very happy with DX Unified Infrastructure Management, but what could be improved is its user interface because currently, it has many wide spaces. All the information you need is in DX Unified Infrastructure Management, and it's a reliable tool, and though that's more important than the gaps in the user interface being smaller or wider, those gaps still need some improvement. I know the team is working on it. My company had some backend problems with DX Unified Infrastructure Management in the past that have now been solved. The setup for the tool also needs improvement because it's complex. Another room for improvement in DX Unified Infrastructure Management is its technical support because it's sometimes not as knowledgeable or responsive. What I'm suggesting to be added to the tool is an open-standard ELK Elastic-based database where you can put in all data, so that you can use the data in other systems as well."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"The PNP4Nagios plugin not working easily with XI is an issue for me, because some open source monitoring plugins do not work out of the box. But in the end, you learn to live with it."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
