"Technical support is great."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."

"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"Nagios XI is a simple monitoring tool with performance management."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."

"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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 would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"The only challenge that I have with this solution is the reporting part. The users are not really comfortable with the kind of reports they are getting. Sometimes, they want to see reports in their own format. Customizing those reports with Jasper is not very easy. It could be because of the knowledge gap. If you have the knowledge of how Jasper can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of reporting, it is good. There was a time a customer complained about one issue related to Netflow analysis. Broadcom has a separate model for that, but the customer wanted everything bundled together. It could also have IP management so that I am able to see or analyze IPs so that the IPs that are already in use don't get assigned."
"Stability."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
"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."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
