Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"Great out-of-the-box capability."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"The monitoring system within this solution is very good. It is easy to use and navigate, and makes issue alarms easily viewable."
"It provides us with proactive monitoring and is very easy to configure and maintain."
"The solution has good dashboards and graphics."
"This solution has screens that are easy to understand and provide a wealth of information."
"The administration of the console is very easy. I like that Pandora FMS is interactive and easy to manage."
"The most valuable feature is that it is an all-in-one monitoring system."
"This product has allowed us to identify and correct certain issues that were affecting our solution."
"The solution is so lightweight that with only 4GB of ram, it allows keeping track of up to two hundred agents from a single console."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"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."
"Improvements are needed for server and network discovery, including service-based discovery."
"I find that this software is resource heavy, and demands a lot of processing capacity."
"In the future, we may have double the number of devices, and we do not want to have any issues with performance in the data display."
"I would like to have a dashboard with all assets displayed, with a quick hover-over status."
"The product lacks APIs for integration with other systems."
"The price for Pandora FMS is expensive."
"Pandora could deliver better analytics out of the box. You can work around these limitations with the help of other tools like Grafana. The shortcomings are mostly on the graphical side. The built-in report generators are a bit limited in some areas."
"I think some improvements to the Android app would be good."
