Easy to set up, simple to use, and offers great technical support
There are quite a few manual processes. We've had issues with pulling reports. Sometimes we have trouble or get errors. The reporting process should be easier. If you have a hub, you should be able to have an unlimited number of servers. For example, if you have 500 servers, and the limit is ten, you have to pull 50 reports. We'd like to just pull one report for all servers. This also increases the time to pull reports. If we have to pull more reports, it takes that much longer than just pulling one. The product can be expensive. Right now, they are updating and consolidating the dashboard. I'm expecting an update that will resolve a few glitches in the server.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The machine learning feature is valuable."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"It is easy to implement."
"The ability to monitor any platform. We have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
 

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The license cost depends on the number of probes and robots."
"Pricing for DX Unified Infrastructure Management isn't cheap at all. It's a complex tool, so you have to pay more. No one is happy with a large bill to pay, but if it's a complex product and you designed a complex solution to be monitored, it'll be your fault that you need to buy an expensive product, and that would be implicit in the design of DX Unified Infrastructure Management. Monitoring is just a small part of it. Sometimes you have to pay a significant amount of money for a complex yet very good solution."
"This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."
"The product-price ratio is better than other brands such as Fortinet or SonicWall."
"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
"CAD $400,000 annually."
