More CA eHealth [EOL] Cons →

"The technical support does not bother to respond.""The initial setup of WhatsUp Gold is a medium range of difficulty levels. However, if it is your first time it could be difficult.""We can never achieve or get a good picture of the network topology.""The licensing model could be improved. Right now, the levels are too far apart. This causes the solution to be more expensive than it needs to be.""I would like to see better integration with switches so that you can see what is connected to each port, what the traffic is, and have a network map automatically generated.""The point system is not clear and clarity around this would improve our understanding of the system.""Integrations with other devices. I want to have a product that has full integration with my active directory so I can track user activity. I want to track my complete user activity, so I'm looking for a product to implement in the near future, which will have full integration with my network and active directory users. It became very difficult to track user activity.""The new release cadence needs to be improved. It takes a while for them to add new features and functionality. There should be a quicker turnaround with new versions."

    Top Answer:The solution effectively monitors network devices and servers.
    Top Answer:I cannot provide a price rating because we purchased a one-time perpetual license. It's all ours, and we're still enjoying it. We renewed support until last year, but we didn't get benefits from it.
    Top Answer:There is room for improvement in server management and application monitoring. An additional feature I would like to see in the next release would be more detailed application monitoring capabilities.
