"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. 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."
"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"It reduced cycles for a lot of quick out-of-the-box functionality. It also allowed us to get away from being stuck in SNMP, VTP V2, based off of agent deployment."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"Technical support is great."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"The dashboard allows you to see what's going on in the overall system."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"The features I've found the most useful are the plug-ins, the fact that you can connect almost everything to it. That's very useful."

"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
