Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It is an overall stable solution."
"This solution has helped our organization by allowing us to have visibility. We deal with cybersecurity, so visibility is very important."
"SCOM has improved our organization by simplifying the monitoring process. The system tells you what the bi-weekly or monthly usage was and that enables us to report this information to the manager. It shows if there was a connectivity issue that needs to be fixed and it's easier to concentrate on what needs to get fixed. System errors, therefore, get fixed faster."
"The most valuable feature is the extensibility, as there are really no limits as to what you can do with it."
"The solution primarily drives system information, and I believe it works fine."
"Because it's Windows-based, it actually reports quite well. It reports everything you can think of on the Windows server and allows you to monitor anything. It's excellent for those in the Windows world as it's very good at it."
"The product’s auto-remediation feature helps with automation."
"It's easy to use."
"The solution has improved our overrides and the ability to start services if they're stopped."
"This solution allows us to standardize all of the reports for monitoring the network, so it helps a lot for auditing purposes."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"I would like to see more security features, like a lost protection package."
"Currently, Broadcom Network Flow Analysis does not support high-availability solutions, making it an area that needs improvement."
"The interface is a little bit cumbersome and certain actions could be simplified."
"It would be a much better product if Microsoft provided management packs with the product."
"The solution should have more tools for monitoring the cloud engine versus on-premise."
"They can focus more on cloud monitoring instead of on-premise monitoring. We should be able to monitor cloud-related applications. They can include this feature in the next release. If it is in the cloud, we can have scalability by using Kubernetes. The container is containerized, packaged, and managed using Kubernetes. This feature is not there in SCOM. Going forward, if they can focus on that, it will be great."
"It lacks certain details that other products do better, like granular access and better application monitoring."
"I would like more customized reports. People should have some customization option on the dashboards for whenever they put multiple lists into it. Beyond customizing the content, there should be the ability to customize the colors so that they can engage some priority and mark challenges separately."
"The solution should be more user-friendly and offer a better user interface."
"The GI is difficult to work with and the reporting servers are also difficult."
