We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum and Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Broadcom and others in DX NetOps."The capability of handling and monitoring with SNMP and working with the SNMP traps is much better than other products."
"It is easy to understand and determine when and/or where the network is failing."
"The Global Collections are what I found to be most valuable. With the Global Collections, you're able to organize and categorize devices into "folders," or functional groups and categories, so that it doesn't matter which SpectroSERVER those devices are on."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The solution's most valuable features are its integration with Broadcom tools and scalability."
"The containerization of different objects was very helpful in building an org structure. Being able to separately manage your MSP clients with separate visibility was also helpful."
"The stability of the product is key. It never breaks, really. The stability and reliability of the Spectrum product have been top-notch."
"It is easy to navigate."
"It is a good product. It provides network visibility, which is important. Gigamon can bring some optimizations to my network. It is helpful for security inspection, and it makes my firewall work fast because my firewall doesn't have to do the inspection of the SSL connections, for example."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the encryption feature. From a security perspective, the solution hasn't significantly strengthened our security posture. However, it has greatly improved performance by streamlining encryption processes and avoiding encryption at multiple layers. This has also simplified troubleshooting, as we can whitelist certain processes."
"The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."
"It offers straightforward integration."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow."
"The solution is straightforward to set up."
"It has high stability."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"A better integration with the UIM, as far as being able to do root cause analysis and that type of analytics."
"Make it easier to certify devices."
"We want to make our own choice for the AIOps solution and do not want to be forced to use the Broadcom OI solution by default."
"The visual is a little archaic."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"We have had one support issue that's been open for a couple of months, and it is currently open."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The security should be improved."
"In terms of improvement, while the initial setup is not overly complicated, we did encounter a few issues."
"They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."
"Its filtering feature needs improvement."
"The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools."
"It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases."
