We performed a comparison between DX Performance Management and OpenText Network Node Manager i based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two DX NetOps solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The integration to the other products that we use: NFA, we use ADA, we use Spectrum; and CAPM integrates all those into a single pane of glass."
"Since the implementation of the tool, it has cut down on probably 60% of our outages and letting us know what is going on."
"Downloads and records are the most valuable features."
"The tool helps us understand network performance."
"The out-of-the-box dashboards are valuable, in terms of being able to visualize performance data in ways that we haven't in the past."
"It saves time having it all on one place, so you do not have to jump around from different tools and try to merge the data. It is already done for you."
"We're able to present data from multiple back-end collection sources into a single dashboard for the users. So they don't have to go to multiple locations to get data about a particular item, or device."
"It can be easily integrated with other systems and is powerful enough to collect data from a large number of devices."
"We do not have any issues stability-wise."
"You can utilize the main file from various vendors for integration."
"It gives us a good overview of what's happening in our networks and the devices in the networks."
"If you install one node on Network Node Manager and want to scale it up, it's pretty easy to create more nodes."
"A good enterprise-level solution."
"The best feature is the solution's entire credibility with all vendors."
"Real time network monitoring application: It is very stable, which provides quick root cause analysis (RCA) for any network faults."
"It is a scalable product."
"It needs role-based administration."
"The quantity of views which are tied to specific metric families is too high. Also, the problem is the view doesn't tell you which metric family it uses, so you don't know why you don't see data."
"The solution could improve the database model. It is also not very good because they have a lot of interconnections with other data sources, such as NFA and VNA."
"DX Performance Management should increase high availability. If one of my two data centers goes offline and the other is operational, I need a seamless transition from the primary to the secondary data center. It's crucial to maintain consistent monitoring of the devices during this transition. Therefore, I require continuous, 24/7 monitoring of my system using this tool."
"When it goes through discovery, or whatever it is doing in the back-end that slows it down, sometimes we get some failures with it. "
"I have mixed feeling about the scalability. I feel like there are things which are being put into UIM right now that are not being included in Performance Center that we need to see in Performance Center. We are kind of being driven to buy UIM, and I can't justify it."
"We experience disconnections between the solutions own components."
"For CA PM, there should be a way of easily migrating the reports coming from eHealth going to CA Performance Center, since CA PC is replacing eHealth."
"When I open a ticket, usually they respond very late. Some of the people I negotiate with seem undertrained."
"Micro Focus Network Node Manager is not the best when it comes to drilling down for more visibility, especially regarding traffic."
"The dashboards are not customizable and it's not user-friendly."
"The deployment architecture and installation part needs improvement."
"The resources utilized could be a bit higher, and that is one of the challenges that isn't optimized"
"As the technologies evolve, also these solutions or the monitoring tools should evolve to cover the progress in technology, including capabilities related to monitoring of virtualized devices today, as the DNS is on the table in this way."
"Only to improve the GUI."
"Micro Focus Network Node Manager is not powered to drill down for traffic visibility."
