Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Scalable and stable network monitoring tool with a simple setup."
"Scalability is a highly rated feature of this solution. It is better than some of the other tools that I've used in terms of scalability. We scaled it to tens of thousands of devices."
"The Global Collections are what I found to be most valuable. With the Global Collections, you're able to organize and categorize devices into "folders," or functional groups and categories, so that it doesn't matter which SpectroSERVER those devices are on."
"What I like best is the configuration management functionality."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"Allows us to have a single console/notification point, with the alarms of all the tools that we use for monitoring."
"The most valuable feature is automatic discovery."
"I have found the cross analysis feature to be the most valuable."
"The solution is stable."
"The best features are the reporting, utilization, and network graph."
"We can integrate any tool with StableNet."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There's a little bit of complexity to the initial install because you're dealing with operating systems. You have to make sure all the prerequisites are done, anti-virus exceptions, etc. Then there's the bringing it up and then there's discovery of the network and setting that up. It takes time."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"From the users perspective the looks and feel of dashboards of Spectrum would be easier to use and for understanding as APM will be in 10.5 version which we saw in CA World."
"Needs better integration with all the other products in the Agile suite of tools; anything they could do to make that less complex, would be great."
"From a functionality perspective, the product is not doing what it should. Also, there are some concerns about the accessibility. I would appreciate additional out-of-the-box troubleshooting scripts, like templates for addressing various issues. Currently, when troubleshooting online, I need to create my scripts. It would be beneficial if the platform could provide pre-built scripts or templates to help automate certain troubleshooting tasks."
"For us, the implementation was quite complex but it's because of the large number of different environments we're dealing with."
"A better integration with the UIM, as far as being able to do root cause analysis and that type of analytics."
"I would suggest improving the web GUI to improve the device monitor configuration and to improve or to integrate the new tool for reporting."
"The solution is expensive."
"The dashboard has a lot of room for improvement."
"The existing dashboard capability is there, but it is not user-friendly."
