More Centerity Monitor Pros →

"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value.""MultiWAN and Balance service""Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports.""I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment.""Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features.""One of the things that I like about DX Infrastructure is that the topology is good enough to see what is happening in the infrastructure. You also get alerts if something is happening in the network. There are many features and benefits. It is serving our customers in knowing exactly how their network is performing in terms of reliability. It also helps them in planning the capacity. They know how much bandwidth the branches are consuming.""Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles.""Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."

Cons
"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."

More Centerity Monitor Cons →

"The company has not kept pace with developments.""It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console.""They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields.""​We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard.""There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure.""In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues.""There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want.""CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."
  • "The product-price ratio is better than other brands such as Fortinet or SonicWall."
  • "The license cost depends on the number of probes and robots."
  • "Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
  • "CAD $400,000 annually."
  • "Customers pay for the license and the support."
  • "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."
