We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum and Entuity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The main thing is obviously notifications about alerts, getting ahead of the curve to make sure that we do not have system going down, or if it is down we get to know it earlier."
"Discovery: Scheduled, on-demand, synchronized with eHealth."
"Allows us to have a single console/notification point, with the alarms of all the tools that we use for monitoring."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to put health checks in place not only for the infrastructure but for some of the services that are on top of the infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"The Global Collections are what I found to be most valuable. With the Global Collections, you're able to organize and categorize devices into "folders," or functional groups and categories, so that it doesn't matter which SpectroSERVER those devices are on."
"We can plan changes and replacement of end-of-life products in our environment very well because it's very accurate."
"The most valuable feature of Entuity is network mapping and information. When clicking on a particular location it can automatically survey the connectivity diagram for us. We can arrange this icon in any kind of formats, such as ring or mesh. The networking mapping can show the components and interconnectivity with the help of IP addresses and NetFlow."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"Entuity's best feature is its ability to monitor a large number of devices."
"This is a product that is easy to deploy and maintain with a positive end-user experience."
"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."
"The setup was very simple and took about an hour."
"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."
"One of the most valuable features of Entuity is the user interface."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"If they could interact with the MIBs of vendors better, and have a lot more pre-loaded ones, that would be amazing for us right now."
"From the users perspective the looks and feel of dashboards of Spectrum would be easier to use and for understanding as APM will be in 10.5 version which we saw in CA World."
"Our consultant was four months on-site doing Spectrum setup and working through issues."
"Technical support for this product is not so good. It needs improvement."
"It was somewhat complex to implement."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"The product should provide performance management features."
"We have a lot of different monitoring tools in the background, so orchestration has been a little bit of a challenge."
"Entuity can expand its coverage on monitoring VoIP solutions a little bit more."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"The configuration of the logging could be improved because if someone deleted any note or inventory, or some change to the inventory, we are not able to identify which user or which administrator modifies these details. For example, there should be read-only locks on maps to prevent their deletion. This way people can only read and cannot delete that particular map."
"Entuity can improve the fetching of device configuration. The solution uses scripts and I could not understand them or find any recourses on the internet to learn about the language that is used in the script. It could be more user-friendly and the device configuration management could be enhanced."
"A typical user might want to see even more depth to the standard reporting and ease of integration."
"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."
"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
