Solution Architect at SA Consulting
Helps us provide visibility into network performance, capacity planning, and cost analysis
Better support and more accessible resources are crucial. Customers have expressed that support is not as flexible, and it is difficult to obtain necessary information quickly. Customers would benefit from improved training material for integration with other products. The solution's pricing is high and needs to be reconsidered, and the technical support should improve to provide more accessible and open information.
Ahmed Salman - PeerSpot reviewer
Performance & Monitoring Supervisor at Saudi Telecom Company
A good solution for network monitoring and support management, but there is no centralized database
There is no centralized database. It is an issue if you use a local database and have multiple borders. However, if you have an external database, you can keep the same old data from an old border up to 100 borders. In addition, if we want to create an ABI or use an ABI to connect data, there is no competition when we ask for support. If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service. Other competitors like Micro Focus, a network management system, have a new supportability matrix in the market every quarter.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nimsoft allows for long term data storage / trend analysis compared to preset SLA objects that allow for capacity planning to remove risks of downtime due to lack of resource provisioning."
"I really value the underlying Java framework for development of custom probes."
"DX Unified Infrastructure Management offers visibility into network activities, integration capacity, and enhances monitoring at the core and application levels."
"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product."
"I believe that the fundamentals and the logic of how UIM is set up is very stable, providing the essentials to extract data from an environment, present it through a front-end using graphs and charts, and allow for crucial analysis on the collected data, with UIM doing a good job of managing all the steps along the way."
"We have a complex infrastructure, with multiple sites, which the systems handles beautifully."
"The dashboarding is pretty extensive and is easy to use."
"It has provided insight on almost all our information system components/layers using a single unified solution."
"I would encourage others to use Entuity, as it's powerful and user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of Entuity is network mapping and information. When clicking on a particular location it can automatically survey the connectivity diagram for us. We can arrange this icon in any kind of formats, such as ring or mesh. The networking mapping can show the components and interconnectivity with the help of IP addresses and NetFlow."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"One of the most valuable features of Entuity is the user interface."
"This is a product that is easy to deploy and maintain with a positive end-user experience."
"This is a very user friendly solution, that is good for user access, allowing deep dives into devices, system performance and more."
"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."
"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."
 

Cons

"Continuing to mature the SNP collector and the network side of the tools they're still not as strong as they need to be."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"Support SLA for response and resolution is pathetic, even the quality of resolution is not up to the level of expectations."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"The UI seems sluggish at times. When you go to maneuver or browse through, it takes a while to update."
"I'd also like to see more probes. More probes in the sense that we were coming across devices that we're expected to monitor and manage for which, out of the box, there isn't a nice, clean solution. There are probes that are dedicated for certain devices and certain device types, which is great. But then there are times we come across nuanced products that we have to develop our own solution for. There are probes that exist in there that allow us to make a customized solution, but it takes a lot more time."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"Network monitoring beyond SNMP."
"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution."
"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."
"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"What might be improved for the user may be the depth of insight into the events that do happen and the ease of integration."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"Entuity can expand its coverage on monitoring VoIP solutions a little bit more."
"Entuity currently has APIs, but they are not straightforward. They are not flexible if an external system wants to communicate with Entuity or create an integration that is not available out of the box. Its APIs can be flexible so that they can be utilized for external integrations that are not available out of the box."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CAD $400,000 annually."
"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
"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."
"This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."
"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."
"Entuity is not an expensive solution."
"It can be comparatively expensive but that is because it is comprehensive."
"It varies and depends on the quantity. It's worth the cost."
"We have 400 licenses and we are only using 150 licenses."
"Entuity's licensing is very highly-priced."
