It was very straight forward being the fact that I've installed it a number of times actually made this latest installation very easy.

The installation was straightforward.

I was involved in the setup process. If you use the defaults, then it is quite straightforward. However, if you have to go through the entire process for the first time, it does take a little bit of time but is not bad.

One of their other products is called CSM, Chorus Software Manager. I was involved with that since beta two. It helps with the download so getting it up and running is very easy.

It's a very complex product, it's got its finger in a lot of things, but it comes up really quick. 

It was straightforward. I was not there for the initial setup for our system, but I have maintained it since then. So, I have done all the upgrades and maintenance on it. So, it is pretty easy and seamless to put it in. 

Very straightforward, with excellent installation documentation.

The initial setup was complex and accompanied with the fact that we didn’t have a lot of latitude. Also, our workload manager gave us added complexities, so we didn’t get to do a lot of greenfield stuff, requiring a bit of massaging.

The installation was, and still is, straightforward, provided that you are a moderately experienced z/OS systems programmer.

I installed CA SYSVIEW. The actual product install is very simple. The web interface install is far from easy. The manual isn't very straightforward on that at all because it's pieces of a different product. Installing it on web interfaces was a challenge.

It was a little tedious, but it was brand new to us. The documentation kind of jumps around because there are all different parts. However, the support has been outstanding.

There was a lot to do and different multiple pieces to it. It is not just one piece because of the way a SYSVIEW operates, touching almost every part of the operating system.

We knew it was coming like that. Just being the only person, it takes a lot of time. We do not really have a direction set for what we are trying to accomplish, so that makes it a little tougher.

The setup is not really complicated, but there are many configurations options, where you can easily get lost.

It was straightforward. There is really no additional customization from one version to the next. It is really easy. It is not a very difficult product to install and customize. 

Initial installation and setup is quite straightforward but after that, some customization and planning is necessary if you want to get the best out of the product. But the customization part (or parameters for customization) is quite well documented.

It wasn't very difficult to implement.

I was not involved in the initial setup.

I was only involved with the testing of the upgrade. We have some assistant programmers to do the upgrade.

Straightforward.

Relatively simple.

The first time I saw SYSVIEW, I found it straightforward and easy to use. I then encountered some difficulties when I started using it full-time. But now it's alright. In any case, when I speak to the service center, I still discover new product features.

It is straightforward and we can bring up this product with most default values. We have packaged this product to our SOS repository and this makes it easy to implement to all regions automatically.

Initial setup was fairly straightforward.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. We use the CSM to implement it time and time again, and overall it’s just extremely quick and very user-friendly.

It was simple to install.

Initial setup was complex.

The initial setup was complex, as this is a complex system. Each view has its own settings panel, which can be overwhelming.

The initial setup is very easy. It is a bit tricky if you have to perform customizations, as migration can be tough, but things improved a lot from v13.0 as you can now have in-house written information in your own libraries and transfer them to the new versions much easier.
