We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Zabbix 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."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"It is very scalable."
"I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"The ability to monitor any platform. We have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."
"The initial setup, while not simple, is easier than other products."
"Our customers also like that they don't have to use multiple modules. Micro Focus and major vendors typically require you to buy several modules and plugins. Our customers do not like that. We offer them a single product for all their monitoring needs."
"Setup was straightforward. Initial deployment took two or three months."
"The initial setup was very quick. The first time it was long because I didn't know it yet. I was only using Windows. The first time was very difficult because of the operating system."
"The solution allows for good integration with other products."
"The solution is quite mature and very stable."
"The overall functionality of Zabbix is very good. The monitoring of bank applications that Zabbix provides is great. The information is displayed on a dashboard that is easily viewed."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the ease with which we can set it up at customer sites with our custom Zabbix proxy and tools."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"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."
"We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"I would like for this solution to be more cloud-friendly."
"When we have a problem, we have to do a lot of research to solve it."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"The integration of the product is not so easy, especially when it comes to the application database."
"The main problem with Zabbix is that you have to spend time writing templates for all of the products that you have."
"Outside of the normal standard monitoring, I would like to extend patching, importing patching, and supporting patching for Windows Servers."
"The System Center Operations Manager can be improved."
"The APM monitoring has room for improvement, although I hear that the new 5.2 version has some improvements in that area, and I'd like to give that a go. I would like to see a few more templates out there for different styles of monitoring. I use the Grafana interface for reporting. I would also like it to have an out-of-the-box ability to email reports. You can create reports, but to be able to email those reports would be really helpful. I've got users who are not interested in logging in and generating a report. They want it all pre-canned and sent to an email address. It would also be really handy if we could pin certain reports up onto platforms such as Teams or SharePoint. A GUI for the proxy server would be cool to have for debugging purposes and for the support teams to have a look at, but I don't know whether that's really feasible to do. I get enough from the log files themselves."
