We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum and OpenText Operations Bridge based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two DX NetOps solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is automatic discovery."
"The integration point."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"What I like best is the configuration management functionality."
"We can plan changes and replacement of end-of-life products in our environment very well because it's very accurate."
"The tool is very mature, and its valuable features are monitoring and configuration management."
"The monitoring just comes to us: "Oh, there's something wrong with that machine." It tells us. There are some 50,000 machines or so, all doing different things. And if they go down we hear about it."
"I can use it to detect whenever things go wrong on my network."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's not complex at all."
"It is stable."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with everything."
"We haven't faced any stability issues. There hasn't been any crashes or glitches."
"The preloaded rules and ways to monitor your systems are a must."
"From our monitoring perspective or from a visibility perspective, HPE UCMDB is a must have. It's an amazing piece of software."
"OpsBridge has good event correlation facilities and root-cause identification algorithms."
"The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature."
"It's not a great performance management tool. Its reporting capabilities are not very good at all."
"Make it easier to certify devices."
"DX Spectrum needs better documentation on its complex features."
"There should be better integration with other Broadcom products, like network performance manager. Currently, for every part of a product, you need a separate server environment. You have something for Spectrum, you have something for network performance, and you have something for NetFlow. There are a lot of islands and server farms with different technologies. They should be redeveloped to get one platform for all."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
"The solution could improve by allowing the ability to monitor the network shortly after installing the software and adding an auto-discovery function."
"The CA Technologies sales team destroyed their relationship with our business units."
"DX Spectrum is stable. However, now and then there are some issues, but overall it is good."
"Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering."
"The pricing could be improved."
"What needs improvement in Micro Focus Operations Bridge is its resource heaviness because you need many resources to deploy and support it. It's a good solution for larger organizations, but for small businesses, not so much."
"I'm not aware of areas that need improvement."
"Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling."
"The pricing is a bit expensive for smaller companies."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events."
