"The quick notification of issues, quick alerting because timeliness is always valuable, it's very important for us."
"The fault management is perfect."
"I have found the cross analysis feature to be the most valuable."
"It covers a lot of different types of hardware. It can do a lot and saves us time."
"The most valuable features of DX Spectrum are the comprehensive alerts."
"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 granular access control that it provided so that you could only see devices that were related to what you were working on was great. I couldn't see the entire inventory of devices. I could only see the ones that were related to my work. It has got a very granular access control component."
"The most valuable feature is the event correlation mechanism."
"My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The Spectrum OneClick is a Java-based client, and that's aging. Really, before any new feature integration, I'd love to see a comprehensive rebuild of the UI."
"For my use case, incident coordination was an area of improvement. The internal software engine for coordinating outages could use improvement because sometimes, we used to get false alerts for unrelated devices. They did a really good job of trying to make sure that you got one major alert and any of the subsequent devices downstream were just additions to that, but occasionally, the engine wouldn't properly catch the right things, and we used to get a flood of alerts."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"The visual is a little archaic."
"Needs better integration with all the other products in the Agile suite of tools; anything they could do to make that less complex, would be great."
"From the users perspective the looks and feel of dashboards of Spectrum would be easier to use and for understanding as APM will be in 10.5 version which we saw in CA World."
"Integration with some other tools, and integration with some Network Packet Broker, need some improvement."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
