We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"MetricsView allows us to keep an eye on computer memory, internal network availability, processors, etc. Letting us know where our issues are coming from based on those numbers.""It shows us not only when utilization is high, but also when it is low.""It allows us to easily troubleshoot computer issues instead of calling a tech person or do the troubleshooting ourselves and taking the time to do it."

"MultiWAN and Balance service""Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service.""The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value.""Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that.""What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server.""You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product.""It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions""I recall the initial setup being straightforward."

Cons
"An online app or download would be useful for the next release, possibly even a phone app that I could use to view my dashboard when I am stationed remotely."

"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer.""We would like to see automatic network topology.""The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process.""We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level.""​We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard.""In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues.""The company has not kept pace with developments.""There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."

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."
