We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Huawei eSight 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."It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."
"Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"We can scale the solution."
"The most important features are alarm management and the visualization of the health of our network devices."
"The product is stable."
"eSight allows me to monitor and solve any problem in the backbone and any switch in real-time."
"Huawei eSight provides businesses with monitoring capabilities of network devices across your network."
"I like the real-time location monitor or RTLS feature. It is similar to the monitoring feature in Cisco Prime."
"I like that it supports all our Huawei devices. Unlike other network monitoring tools that monitor Huawei devices, it provides more details when it comes to monitoring or management. We can get complete details about the devices, and management is also simple."
"We use Huawei eSight to monitor devices like Wi-Fi controllers, LAN switches, and routers."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
"It is not a very flexible product."
"It will be better if they can make the simple network topology part more presentable. It would also be better if they had API integration and integration with third-party devices."
"This solution could be improved by offering monitoring for all devices and not only Huawei devices."
"The solution needs to improve it's user interface to make it more modern and stylish. They need to design proper menu positions, features, etc. Right now the layout is complicated."
"The solution and the operating system come separately. It would be easier if we did not have to deploy anything. A bundle feature would be better."
"Something that could be improved is the lack of integration with Cisco switches. In the next release, I would like to see better reporting."
"The price could be less costly."
"eSight has many features and options, but sometimes, we feel that it should be more advanced, like Cisco. It would be good if they can enable some automation part in eSight. Most of our customers want automation in their network. They don't want a dependency on everything. That's why the automation part must be improved in Huawei. It will be beneficial for customers. Cisco has different products, and there are multiple products for monitoring, automation, etc. In the software-defined network, Cisco has ACI, and VMware has NSX. Such options must be there in Huawei to move to a software-defined network. Unlike Cisco, in the case of eSight, there is only one product. I am not aware of any other product. It would be good to enhance it with at least some automation options so that we can use it effectively in the campus network or big data center environment. When I implemented this Huawei solution, I faced some limitations in particular areas like wireless scanning. This is another part that they can improve. Wireless reporting option is not as effective as other monitoring solutions. For a particular use case, if a customer is asking for some reports, sometimes they are not 100% satisfactory. The reporting structure must be improved."
