Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The machine learning feature is valuable."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"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."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"I'm very happy with DX Unified Infrastructure Management, but what could be improved is its user interface because currently, it has many wide spaces. All the information you need is in DX Unified Infrastructure Management, and it's a reliable tool, and though that's more important than the gaps in the user interface being smaller or wider, those gaps still need some improvement. I know the team is working on it. My company had some backend problems with DX Unified Infrastructure Management in the past that have now been solved. The setup for the tool also needs improvement because it's complex. Another room for improvement in DX Unified Infrastructure Management is its technical support because it's sometimes not as knowledgeable or responsive. What I'm suggesting to be added to the tool is an open-standard ELK Elastic-based database where you can put in all data, so that you can use the data in other systems as well."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
