"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."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"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."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"Stability."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"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 product could be optimized to improve the administrative user experience via the Nagios Core Configuration (NCC) GUI module."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"Improve the documentation, examples, and best practices, therefore users can understand how to do things."
