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."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"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."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"The product’s auto-remediation feature helps with automation."
"Because it's Windows-based, it actually reports quite well. It reports everything you can think of on the Windows server and allows you to monitor anything. It's excellent for those in the Windows world as it's very good at it."
"This solution saves us a lot of work because it reduces the effort that is required in order to start monitoring."
"It takes a lot of the headache out of managing your data centers and software in other places."
"This solution satisfies all of the requirements that we need for our Windows-based systems, so if you are using the Windows platform then this is an easy solution."
"Availability monitoring is the feature I have found most valuable, as well as the capacity and ability to send notifications."
"The solution's reporting engine has given me detailed information on which applications or services I've either failed or about to fail in terms of the predictive makeup on Azure cloud."
"The tool helps to monitor Windows servers. It offers alerts from a central location."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"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."
"In a future release, they should add email notification alerts."
"The price could be improved."
"The management of the servers could be better."
"The dashboard features are not user-friendly for our management team, only for the technical department."
"Application monitoring must be improved."
"In terms of features that could be improved, I would say the agent integration into the operating system. We are having difficulties integrating Linux into some of the networking devices."
"Stability and some performance issues exist and they need improvement."
"I would like more customized reports. People should have some customization option on the dashboards for whenever they put multiple lists into it. Beyond customizing the content, there should be the ability to customize the colors so that they can engage some priority and mark challenges separately."
