Manager, Engineering at Benchmark Broadcast Systems

Monitor broadcast systems effectively with real-time data processing and insightful feedback

The solution will monitor data in real-time and can scale out well. For instance, in a television studio, I might deal with about three hundred pieces of equipment. However, in other sites, it can handle 200 to 2500 nodes that send data every second. The system efficiently processes and analyzes data to provide insightful feedback, such as pinpointing specific equipment errors. It also offers predictive analytics based on received data, rather than just storing it.

Manager ITSM at Lucky Cement Limited

Achieve seamless network and link monitoring with comprehensive device management

The most valuable function is that the IMC takes an entire backup of my network devices, and I can also redeploy them. The really beneficial feature is the link monitoring. I had checked Check Point's product, however, my requirements are better fulfilled by IMC. The main feature is that IMC automatically configures the device for my use. I have over 200 features in my network, and IMC manages the complete environment. Automation is good, but I mainly use it for monitoring. I am too satisfied with this product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution will monitor data in real-time and can scale out well."

"The solution is user-friendly and is readily customizable, which allows us to do control and monitoring in a single stage."

"Data Miner allows you to take control. It has an API to talk to different products, including drivers to talk to the APIs of third-party products. You can control it from the screen."

"The most valuable feature of DataMiner is its comprehensiveness. It provides an open driver that allows you to customize and program each aspect of the system. Additionally, there are many separate modules available that can be used to enhance the system's capabilities beyond just monitoring, allowing you to manage your entire workflow. This is a valuable feature that makes troubleshooting easier and helps to optimize the use of the system."

"The most valuable function is that the IMC takes an entire backup of my network devices, and I can also redeploy them."

"The most useful feature is infrastructure monitoring including switches and servers."

"The most valuable feature is the interface and its ease of use."

"One of the notable advantages is its ability to provide quick responses, especially in critical situations."

"It's a very complete product with a lot of functionality."

Cons

"We would like to have more products supported by the drivers because there are so many products out there. If DataMiner has not built the drivers to support them we can not control them, we can only see them based on SNMP. If more drivers are included, it won't cost us if we have new products."

"I am looking forward to the company continuing to improve its solution and incorporate new technologies. Specifically, I hope that they will allow their cloud database environment to host services, rather than requiring the use of on-premises digital or physical servers. The company is moving in this direction, but I am still waiting for this capability to be implemented."

"The system's complexity during installation could be reduced."

"HPE Intelligent Management Center is a bit slow."

"I face the issue with the integration with links on Fortinet Firewall."

"One notable deficiency is the lack of online support for the product."

"I would like to see additional modules included."

"The integration with other network devices needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"DataMiner is an expensive solution and that is why many companies do not use it. Other solutions are less expensive."

"There are licensing costs and they are quite expensive."

"The price of this solution is not at all cheap, but it's reasonable compared to SolarWinds."
