We performed a comparison between Amazon CloudWatch and DX Unified Infrastructure Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Every time we get an alarm or have an incident, CloudWatch is always there. We use it not only for resources we've spun up in the cloud, but also for some of our on-premises resources."
"We have found the pricing to be reasonable."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It is a robust analytical tool and it goes beyond mere functionality and extends into the realm of providing comprehensive insights."
"I have found the memory metrics and the CPU metrics valuable."
"We can create events and alerts. We use the information to dive down into the infrastructure performance."
"Most of it's around optimizing utilization, their cloud utilization. They're making sure that they're getting the most out of their in-cloud environments and their instances. Making sure that there's no strange behavior in the environment."
"We use Amazon CloudWatch for logging."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"It is very scalable."
"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."
"There's a learning curve with Amazon CloudWatch since we have to learn to write the queries to extract the keys and logs."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"The configuration capabilities could be better."
"The dashboard of Amazon CloudWatch is not very customizable right now."
"The technical support must be improved."
"Right now, in relation to monitoring services, there are too many services and too many metrics per service."
"Incorporating a straightforward method or a plug-and-play solution for integrating these databases with our systems, facilitating smooth data transfer, and enabling the creation of dashboards for monitoring and analysis would be beneficial."
"It is hard to configure; it is not a straightforward tool."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"Stability."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
