Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features.""It is easy to implement but requires good planning.""It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions""We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution.""It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server.""Technical support is great.""It is reliable when it comes to monitoring.""This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."

"The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features. They are something I find quite helpful in my work.""This solution has improved our organization through the provision of efficient resource utilization and capacity planning.""This is a good product and I recommend it.""I think it's stable, scalable, and flexible.""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."

More HPE System Management Pros →

"Power packs.""Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique.""Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS.""Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product.""It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers.""One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards.""It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments.""It is simple."

Cons
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. ​""CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth).""Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to.""We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level.""We've had issues with pulling reports.""Stability.""The company has not kept pace with developments.""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 →

"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.""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 product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""I think that support integration could be improved."

More HPE System Management Cons →

"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others.""Admins do not have direct access to the reporting.""They need a little more self-service.""Addressing duplicate IPs: There is the ability to edit the DB and fix this, but adding some logic to understand them would be a plus.""They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers.""They should improve their support process and add chat.""The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment.""They should add CLI command modes​ and scripts for high performance."

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."
  • More DX Unified Infrastructure Management Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The support is yearly-based and the license is permanent."
  • "The price of this product is fair."
  • "The license was included when we purchased the server."
  • "My company has invested 30,00,000 USD in the product."
  • More HPE System Management Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing between the two is quiet large therefore you can save some money if you don't require to collect all info on each device."
  • "Decide what you want to monitor and only monitor those items. Absorb other elements as you grow."
  • "Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
  • "It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
  • "Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
  • "The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
  • "The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
  • "I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
