"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."

"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"It is a very valuable tool. It goes out and does a discovery, which is a great process of it. You could have something like a rogue DHCP server, and it will identify it, and then you can see to which switch port it is connected. It is quite an impressive tool. I really liked it because you didn't have to install an agent on anything. It would just go out and do its discovery. For me, that's great."
"Gives us the ability to see our network."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."

"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."

"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 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's stability could be even better."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
"Its price can be improved. Their support can also be improved a little bit. In terms of features, it did everything I wanted it to do. With more features, I would have to start installing network agents or something else, and I don't want to have to install anything. This was the value for me about this device."
"I would like a built-in tap feature which doesn't interfere with the network, and it allows you to see what is happening there."
