"My sales representative, I would not trade him in for the world. He has done a really good job. I am really happy with him.​""​The ability to quickly do drag and drop customized reports for dashboards.​""It is the gathering of the whole performance data in our environment and our network environment, for us and our customers.""Downloads and records are the most valuable features.""The tool helps us understand network performance.""It can be easily integrated with other systems and is powerful enough to collect data from a large number of devices.""The feature that is inherent to its core, of being able to graphically represent a trend and status, is nice.""When we deployed it, right out of the box we were able to stand up Performance Management within two weeks, in our production environment, with full discovery and relevant information, actual information, that we could use in our command center, our 24/7 operations center."

"We mostly use Nagios Core to integrate with Python and Bash Script.""Other products are good but from the configuration point of view Nagios is really very lightweight. The price is really good in my opinion. Another important thing is that my Nagios engine still works with Dual core 8GB ram for the last 10 years.""Our customers like that Nagios Core is an open source solution. It can be customized to our customers' specific needs.""What I like about Nagios Core is that it helps me ensure everything is running smoothly by checking the status of hosts and services.""I like the way the solution sends alerts and how it keeps on escalating them.""Nagios Core is stable.""Dashboard provides monitor of total assets.""I like that it's very simple to install, easy to manage and deploy, and easy to use for monitoring."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"We experience disconnections between the solutions own components.""The quantity of views which are tied to specific metric families is too high. Also, the problem is the view doesn't tell you which metric family it uses, so you don't know why you don't see data.""CA PM Business Hours Filtering: I understand that all monitoring systems have defects. The Business Hours Filtering does not always function properly. Sometimes, when applying business hours to CA PM reports that are 30 or more days in duration, the report generation times out and does not display results. We have other CA PM reports that, when we apply Business Hours Filtering, the report results displayed are the same as without the filter. We are not sure if this is a defect in CA PM or if it is a result of our complex configuration (folder structure) and application of business hours.""There are some areas in the technology right now, like with VMs, where we are lacking with our abilities to get inside the VM to monitor traffic within the machine.""Some of the individual report views, the way some of the columns sort, there's room for improvement in giving us more flexibility in being able to sort reports based, for example, on what columns the metrics fall under.""The solution could improve the database model. It is also not very good because they have a lot of interconnections with other data sources, such as NFA and VNA.""This solution's implementation process could be quicker. They could also optimize the hardware requirements.""CA PM can be complex to build and configure. Creating the folders / groups / sites required establishing many rule sets."

More DX Performance Management Cons →

"The user interface could be more interactive because it is pretty basic.""It is a bit slow due to latency.""The dashboard and monitoring features could be improved.""It's not that easy to install the product itself. Also, the UI is a bit hard for regular users to navigate through.""The core version is no match for the XI version.""The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way.""Nagios Core is limited in terms of distributed setups, and there is no central view for remote data centers.""Making it a little easier to configure and set up from the start would help. There are multiple layers that you have to wade through to be able to set it up, to do it the right way, and to get it to do what you want it to do."

  • "We were looking at other vendors in the marketplace for NetFlow, and CA just beat everybody else in price, cost, and the size to implement. ​"
  • "Do your homework and know how many devices you will be managing out of the gate. Be sure to project what your growth will be each year."
  • "They should provide more scalable licensing for the product."
  • "I like the licensing model because it's device-based."
  • "We purchase a license to use the solution every three years and we have multiple contracts. They have been increasing the price annually. We have a baseline for three years and then we need to pay the difference from the baseline, and we are in the process of negotiating a new price for all the licenses we need. The price overall is affordable."
  • "The tool's pricing is based on the number of network devices."
