We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The out-of-the-box dashboards are valuable, in terms of being able to visualize performance data in ways that we haven't in the past.""The tool helps us understand network performance.""I can get it to run a report showing, for instance, what root drives are in the critical range in terms of being full, like 90 percent full, and disseminate that information to the other areas of the organization.""We have been able to get a little bit better at seeing more things in real time and more just in time, so we're less reactionary.""You can create intelligent alerts so you have enough time to replace the router or interface before it's full. The same is applicable for CBQoS channels.​""It is very easy to add devices; just be aware that it requires SNMP to be enabled.""The feature that is inherent to its core, of being able to graphically represent a trend and status, is nice.""It gave us one location, one place to do all of group administration, and to build dashboards, and device administration, inventory counts... it really reduced our overall administrative overhead."

"Easy access to resources of our cloud.""It helps to plan how you can scale up your environment, and it gives an overview of your entire infra."

Cons
"It needs role-based administration.""​Global synchronization errors. Sometimes it just doesn't finish in time due to the load.""The solution could improve the database model. It is also not very good because they have a lot of interconnections with other data sources, such as NFA and VNA.""I have mixed feeling about the scalability. I feel like there are things which are being put into UIM right now that are not being included in Performance Center that we need to see in Performance Center. We are kind of being driven to buy UIM, and I can't justify it.​""When it goes through discovery, or whatever it is doing in the back-end that slows it down, sometimes we get some failures with it. ​""Some of the individual report views, the way some of the columns sort, there's room for improvement in giving us more flexibility in being able to sort reports based, for example, on what columns the metrics fall under.""I would like to have more tasks, graphs, and possibilities for linking to the graphs and reports added to the solution.""I think it would be helpful having a more comprehensive set of certifications so that I could natively deploy devices to my environment and the tool would immediately recognize and immediately be able to provide relevant performance information without a lot of tuning on my part."

"It needs to improve the capacity planning.""It should have more reporting features. It will help in getting more reporting information."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We were looking at other vendors in the marketplace for NetFlow, and CA just beat everybody else in price, cost, and the size to implement. ​"
  • "Do your homework and know how many devices you will be managing out of the gate. Be sure to project what your growth will be each year."
  • "They should provide more scalable licensing for the product."
  • "I like the licensing model because it's device-based."
  • "We purchase a license to use the solution every three years and we have multiple contracts. They have been increasing the price annually. We have a baseline for three years and then we need to pay the difference from the baseline, and we are in the process of negotiating a new price for all the licenses we need. The price overall is affordable."
  • "The tool's pricing is based on the number of network devices."

  • "It depends on the agreement that you have with Micro Focus. It can be a year-based term. It can be perpetual, or it can be subscription-based. Depending upon whether you're looking for an annual or a multi-year contract, the pricing would vary. It also depends on whether you are looking for standard support or premium support."
