Integrates well, highly stable, and scalable
CA Asset Portfolio Management can improve the uploading of batch information. I have to upload large amounts of information and it can take a long time to finish. There are some other solutions that are better, such as Micro Focus. We have approximately 10,000 PCs that we are busy processing and we have to upload information to them but when we use this solution it is complex. When we use Micro Focus it is better.

Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"IT Asset manager is centralized inventory software for computer hardware and software asset of the organization."
"You build the items one time and then you have your discovery that's coming in and the system will let you know whether or not you're out of compliance."
"IT asset manager simplifies the management and administration of the life cycle of IT assets thus lowering the capital and operational expenditure."
"Also, the software you have, you can monitor for end of life. If you have software that is end of life, then you can have it uninstalled and buy the new software, so you can make sure that you're not running into vulnerabilities with unsupported software in your environment."
"Being able to determine the licensing position for existing vendors and future vendors. Also, visibility into our environment,"
"The most valuable feature of CA Asset Portfolio Management is the full integration with our Service Desk, as it allows us to work both sides of life cycle management."
"From an implementation standpoint, and what we've seen so far of what it can do, I'd say we're extremely satisfied."
"Reduces software cost. Reduces the risk of software audits."
"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
"The technical support is good."
 

Cons

"CA SAM is not a CA product. The vendor is Aspera and CA is the distributor, so support is difficult. It's more difficult to get a good response."
"One additional improvement – the reporting aspect in SAM is poor; we need different reporting for different purposes – compliance reporting for executive management and the product teams."
"Needs a stronger reporting component, and more integration with CA Client Automation."
"Keeping the catalog updated and having more titles in the catalog is helpful, because the more items that are in the catalog, your process goes faster because you don't have to manually build all the entitlements."
"I'd like to see end-of-life information on software products."
"Accessing from roles can be effected adversely if searches are created and incorrectly assigned to roles."
"The UI, even though they upgraded the UI, it's still kind of dated, it's a little bit convoluted to use. It's not like something that you can sit down and automatically understand how to use it."
"I would like to see more control over audit trail features, where you can turn on and off fields."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"The GUI could be improved."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
