We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server."
"It is easy to implement."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"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 dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"It's user friendly."
"The product gives us as much control as we can have by providing a complete picture of the whole set of Oracle products."
"The best part is the efficient database performance monitoring and the ability to take actions directly from there."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Enterprise Manager are the data guide and online monitoring."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Oracle Enterprise Manager was straightforward."
"Some of the most valuable features are its real-time performance view/dashboard, metric history, real-time monitoring and alerts, as well as quick access to Oracle's tuning and diagnostic options."
"We use Oracle Enterprise Manager as a tool to monitor Oracle products."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"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."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"Better mobile access would be useful."
"The tool is expensive."
"Reporting and statistical charting is largely still left up the end-user to develop custom solutions."
"We could use it but definitely with some effort we can streamline much better and sometimes some box here and there, like 13C you have to really wait, but there are great features. Just have to make sure it is a stable product."
"I feel more dashboards can be added, especially those useful to higher levels of IT management."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve the monitoring types and the graphics."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager's scalability is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"I would like to see better pricing."
