We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports."
"With the automation pieces we can bring this region up or take this region down, and it allows us to always meet our time critical requirements."
"The follow-up surprised me. Making sure that I am happy with what I have gone to them on. They will call after I have made changes and verify that I am happy with the changes that I did have to make. If it did not fix the complete problem, they go back over it until I am satisfied."
"The documentation is simple, easy to follow, and use. A limited, first-time systems programmer can do it, in that it is out-of-the-box almost functional."
"It alerts the operators when it is time to repair the communications and the IPLs."
"Their technical support is incredible, immediately responsive, and even if it is not updated to Level 2 support sometimes, they chip in providing more detailed answers and options to fix the problem."
"It allows us to respond faster to issues. If there are issues that come out, we're able to capture a message and alert somebody about it."
"The performance of it is beyond exceptional. It is probably one of the best products that I have ever worked with. It is easy to use, comprehensive, and can perform almost any task you need it to."
"Because we can define complex commands, the training of new operators is quicker. We can also put checks in place, that will prevent user errors."
"Stability."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"I'd also like to see more probes. More probes in the sense that we were coming across devices that we're expected to monitor and manage for which, out of the box, there isn't a nice, clean solution. There are probes that are dedicated for certain devices and certain device types, which is great. But then there are times we come across nuanced products that we have to develop our own solution for. There are probes that exist in there that allow us to make a customized solution, but it takes a lot more time."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"Scalability is zero. It cannot be scaled because of its age."
"It definitely needs more web-based interface, to be more mobile-open. More APIs, more open source to it."
"Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day."
"The reason sometimes it is not stable, we do not have the expertise to write the script."
"The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better. CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented."
"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky."
"Because of its age, it's a little bit difficult to modernize some of the integrations and some of the functions."
"The further expansion of the mainframe teamcenter interface. Also, the web services support is something that I am looking into."
