"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"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."
"PRTG has improved our visibility and response time to issues related to remote sites."
"The real-time monitoring feature in PRTG is invaluable to me"
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"PRTG is integrated on Windows."
"The remote probe feature in PRTG Network Monitor helps you monitor remote systems or your network at a lower cost than other solutions."
"It is pretty simple to use, which is always a good thing. It's been very reliable in updating us if any issues crop up."
"There is a simplicity to setting up the extra sensors. It's really easy for us to build infrastructure and start monitoring very quickly."
"The solution is scalable."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"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."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level."
"The automation should be improved."
"In a very few cases, customers want more detailed reports, which we cannot meet."
"Having a Unix implementation or Unix installation could be an improvement. Right now, it's based just on Windows, and that's a problem for some customers."
"It would be nice if it gave us alerts via Gmail or SMS message."
"PRTG Network Monitor could improve the price."
"They could improve the process of updating the license."
"PRTG does not allow us to scan devices like we can scan software or another problem in it. Also, I cannot draw graphical graphs in Woodview/look. Another problem is that we cannot draw a good diagram in PRTG."
"I know we're going to move to Docker applications and I understand that PRTG does some monitoring regarding this. I do not know if it is complete. If it's not yet complete, it's something they should consider improving."
