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."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
