We performed a comparison between Centerity Monitor and DX Spectrum based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The machine learning feature is valuable."
"Some of the most valuable features are it's highly scalable, the carrier is great, and if something has SNMP, it can monitor it. It's a great network fault management solution."
"All networks (or network equipment) are monitored through CA Spectrum."
"It helps our NetOps group actually handle alarms in a way that lets them see the bigger picture of those alarms, and how they might affect our services. It helps us communicate information about the network state better to services that might be impacted by a specific network condition."
"The solution's most valuable features are its integration with Broadcom tools and scalability."
"The stability of the product is key. It never breaks, really. The stability and reliability of the Spectrum product have been top-notch."
"The most valuable feature is automatic discovery."
"It's a good tool. It's simple to do the configuration."
"It does correlation so instead of producing 20 alarms if a site goes down, it only creates one."
"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"The upgrade process could be smoother. More of the steps around upgrading could be automated."
"DX Spectrum is stable. However, now and then there are some issues, but overall it is good."
"It doesn't really allow for multi-tenancy. If you're an ISP or an MSP and you want to use this tool to provide these types of fault management services to your customers, you would need a separate SpectroSERVER for each customer..."
"The product should provide performance management features."
"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."
"There should be better integration with other Broadcom products, like network performance manager. Currently, for every part of a product, you need a separate server environment. You have something for Spectrum, you have something for network performance, and you have something for NetFlow. There are a lot of islands and server farms with different technologies. They should be redeveloped to get one platform for all."
"There should be a facility to integrate with other monitoring applications that are currently running in the environment."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
