Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Broadcom and others in Network Management Applications."Spectrum is great for root cause analysis. It has excellent correlation event management. Spectrum's stability and scalability are also amazing."
"It's a good tool. It's simple to do the configuration."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The main thing is obviously notifications about alerts, getting ahead of the curve to make sure that we do not have system going down, or if it is down we get to know it earlier."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"The containerization of different objects was very helpful in building an org structure. Being able to separately manage your MSP clients with separate visibility was also helpful."
"We can monitor MPLS network VPN, network configuration, and backups. It's highly scalable for network configuration management."
"Spectrum does such a great job of discovering our network that we have a high confidence in what our inventory is."
"Scalable solution for tracking and syncing through the Infoblox grid."
"The product should provide performance management features."
"It takes some time to learn how to use this solution."
"If they could interact with the MIBs of vendors better, and have a lot more pre-loaded ones, that would be amazing for us right now."
"If nobody else has said the documentation needs improvement, let's go there. I understand, you can either write about it or you can do it. And most of us would rather they do it, but now that they've done it, those of us that didn't do it, we need to go and find: "Where did they write about this to tell us how to do it?" That's always lacking."
"It doesn’t give you performance metrics: You need CA eHealth for this."
"From a functionality perspective, the product is not doing what it should. Also, there are some concerns about the accessibility. I would appreciate additional out-of-the-box troubleshooting scripts, like templates for addressing various issues. Currently, when troubleshooting online, I need to create my scripts. It would be beneficial if the platform could provide pre-built scripts or templates to help automate certain troubleshooting tasks."
"Its visualization can be improved. It doesn't have a very advanced GUI. It is very basic and simple, but it does work."
"I would like to see them eliminate the Java console. The user interface for this is a Java applet that runs on your desktop, and it is very problematic for us."
"Lacks network overview for the entire connected network."
