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."The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"One of the things that I like about DX Infrastructure is that the topology is good enough to see what is happening in the infrastructure. You also get alerts if something is happening in the network. There are many features and benefits. It is serving our customers in knowing exactly how their network is performing in terms of reliability. It also helps them in planning the capacity. They know how much bandwidth the branches are consuming."
"The ability to monitor any platform. We have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
"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."
"It is a good tool for monitoring databases."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager triggers critical alerts."
"SQL Tuning Advisor, ADDM, Top Activity, ASM Space Manager, Incident Notifications"
"Oracle Enterprise Manager helps to control servers."
"It's a useful feature to be able to see the top SQL, the number of executions, the CPU, and the resources that it's using."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases."
"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."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"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."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"I would say mostly backup and recovery, through the Enterprise Manager. Or any corruptions, to be able to fix them through Enterprise Manager."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The fact that Oracle Enterprise Manager is an expensive solution is a matter of concern and needs to be considered for improvement."
"RMAN tools need improvement."
"They should improve the hover text context. This would provide assistance whenever a task is attempted by a DBA."
"In my experience, the monitoring could be improved."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"There's a lot of documentation to go through as a new user."
