"The product has a very good graphical interface.""We don't have any complaints about the software. According to my team, it's a very good tool that's very intuitive.""One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN.""The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points.""The intention and the idea of the filter is great.""Its analytical capability is really good.""All in all, LiveAction LiveNX has become an indispensable tool for maintaining and improving our network's reliability and performance, ultimately supporting our organization's goal of providing timely and dependable delivery services."

Cons
"The usability must be better.""When new features are added, the service becomes full of bugs.""Cisco Intersight needs some improvement in terms of stability. Hybrid cloud management and proper hyperscaler tie-up are other areas for improvement.""In the future, the solution needs to plan on an extension to cover a broader range of objects since, at present, there are some Cisco devices within the range of Intersight UCS that it can't manage.""The solution needs some enhancement in order to build the cluster in two nodes.""The unique problem with Cisco Intersight is that it's not supporting some players.""The product could be easy to use.""It's a very complex solution."

More Cisco Intersight Cons →

"Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster.""The only downside to this software is the price.""This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved.""It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive.""They need to create a more simplified UI.""Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug.""The tool crashes sometimes when we try to pull reports simultaneously."
