Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"MultiWAN and Balance service""Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features.""It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems.""Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports.""It is the foundation for our monitoring solution.""The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you.""The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology.""I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."

"I think it's stable, scalable, and flexible.""This solution has improved our organization through the provision of efficient resource utilization and capacity planning.""The interface is in continuous development and improves version by version.""The product's initial setup phase is easy with the help of the framework consisting of Microsoft Azure.""The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features. They are something I find quite helpful in my work.""This is a good product and I recommend it."

Cons
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue.""How we can get more native information from CA's solutions.""It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically.""Stability.""The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes.""A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer.""In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues.""There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."

More DX Unified Infrastructure Management Cons →

"I think that support integration could be improved.""If the solution could provide better integration to make it easier to manage everything on different servers, that would be helpful. Whatever servers a company has, be it IBM, Dell, etc., if the System Management could be a platform that links all of them together, it would make management across different server types easier.""The quality of service and support for this solution needs to be improved.""Our customers would like to see the price lowered.""The return on investment report is too difficult to understand.""The product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "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."

  • "The license was included when we purchased the server."
  • "My company has invested 30,00,000 USD in the product."
