Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Microsoft, ServiceNow and others in Server Monitoring."The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"It reduced cycles for a lot of quick out-of-the-box functionality. It also allowed us to get away from being stuck in SNMP, VTP V2, based off of agent deployment."
"It is very scalable."
"One of the things that I like about DX Infrastructure is that the topology is good enough to see what is happening in the infrastructure. You also get alerts if something is happening in the network. There are many features and benefits. It is serving our customers in knowing exactly how their network is performing in terms of reliability. It also helps them in planning the capacity. They know how much bandwidth the branches are consuming."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"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."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"This solution has improved our organization through the provision of efficient resource utilization and capacity planning."
"The interface is in continuous development and improves version by version."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy with the help of the framework consisting of Microsoft Azure."
"The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features. They are something I find quite helpful in my work."
"I think it's stable, scalable, and flexible."
"This is a good product and I recommend it."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"Power packs."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"ScienceLogic allows us to create and customize a user-friendly dashboard."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"The best feature is the highly flexible graphs."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"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."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"The quality of service and support for this solution needs to be improved."
"Our customers would like to see the price lowered."
"If the solution could provide better integration to make it easier to manage everything on different servers, that would be helpful. Whatever servers a company has, be it IBM, Dell, etc., if the System Management could be a platform that links all of them together, it would make management across different server types easier."
"I think that support integration could be improved."
"The return on investment report is too difficult to understand."
"The product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
