"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"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."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"Stability."
"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."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"I'd also like to see more probes. More probes in the sense that we were coming across devices that we're expected to monitor and manage for which, out of the box, there isn't a nice, clean solution. There are probes that are dedicated for certain devices and certain device types, which is great. But then there are times we come across nuanced products that we have to develop our own solution for. There are probes that exist in there that allow us to make a customized solution, but it takes a lot more time."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"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."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
