"It does correlation so instead of producing 20 alarms if a site goes down, it only creates one."
"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"Offers a lot of functionality."
"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."
"I can use it to detect whenever things go wrong on my network."
"The containerization of different objects was very helpful in building an org structure. Being able to separately manage your MSP clients with separate visibility was also helpful."
"We can monitor MPLS network VPN, network configuration, and backups. It's highly scalable for network configuration management."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"Most valuable function would have to the internal causal engine and its root cause analyzer which keep us updated on critical errors and incidents in our network environment."
"You can utilize the main file from various vendors for integration."
"Our monitoring and network teams of less than 100 people use this solution. The availability and fault monitoring are good."
"It gives us a good overview of what's happening in our networks and the devices in the networks."
"It is a scalable product."
"Real time network monitoring application: It is very stable, which provides quick root cause analysis (RCA) for any network faults."
"We do not have any issues stability-wise."
"It is stable for fault and availability."
"It allows us to manage backups in big companies. It is also useful in managing the configuration changes."
"We push all our configurations to the servers with ease and the logs capture almost all the transactions needed for an internal audit."
"The scanning features have proven to be highly valuable, particularly due to the comprehensive information they provide."
"The solution's view is very nice, and they have a great customized dashboard."
"This solution has helped our organization by allowing us to store all the device configurations for the various network devices in NCM and making it easy for us to retrieve and look them over."
"The feature that I really enjoy is the ability to script changes across all of your devices."
"It is pretty straightforward to set up."
"Its main functionality is highly beneficial as it centralizes the management of configuration items across the network."
"A better integration with the UIM, as far as being able to do root cause analysis and that type of analytics."
"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."
"It doesn't really allow for multi-tenancy. If you're an ISP or an MSP and you want to use this tool to provide these types of fault management services to your customers, you would need a separate SpectroSERVER for each customer..."
"For us, the implementation was quite complex but it's because of the large number of different environments we're dealing with."
"It was somewhat complex to implement."
"Needs better integration with all the other products in the Agile suite of tools; anything they could do to make that less complex, would be great."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"They should add AI options in the product's next release."
"The deployment architecture and installation part needs improvement."
"Micro Focus Network Node Manager is not powered to drill down for traffic visibility."
"The way the solution currently works means I'm not able to customize my own reports."
"We had some issues with some of the features, some modules are not meeting expectations."
"The dashboards are not customizable and it's not user-friendly."
"Only to improve the GUI."
"Right now, we have open tickets and they are not closing as expected."
"The solution could have better integration."
"When we run the SolarWinds NCM jobs at the cellular line, it runs in the morning. They're just not finishing. We're getting false processing."
"The Network Configuration Manager needs to improve the access control list compliance."
"The network logs could be improved. When the error logs come across with those false positive alarms in the error logs."
"Releasing a product compatible with operating systems other than Windows would be advantageous."
"The interface of solar winds could be improved."
"It would be great if they include a network service manager, network performance manager, or a privileged assessment in the next release."
"The only thing that requires some experience, and training doesn't fix, is how to set up your custom policy-based reports to check compliance."
