We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Microsoft Configuration Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"The real value is our being able to pull all the historic data that we need in order to gather every little metric and nuanced piece of information from a given device, a given piece of infrastructure, in order for us to generate alerts."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"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."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"This solution captures all the devices in our infrastructure."
"Patching is very effective and reporting is very good."
"The ease of usability is the most valuable feature. It's user-friendly."
"What's valuable is the basic management of the systems, being able to control who can access the systems."
"The scalability to deploy the package."
"I like its ease of use. It does what you need it to do, and it's a one-stop-shop for the company and for all your deployments. If you incorporate Intune into it, you can have both. You can bring your own devices and corporate devices, and everything runs out of SCCM and Intune."
"It is easy to install, and quick to deploy."
"Software deployment and WSUS are most valuable."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"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."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"The database should be made to be more stable and robust, but not so much the configuration."
"Devices like smartphones and tablets are managed very well on VMware, however, they are absent in SCCM. I could configure iPad from the VMware site and it was done very easily. It should be just as possible on SCCM."
"It needs to be able to load faster during deployment."
"Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager can improve by allowing us to schedule the scripts, we don't have a script scheduling option and have to do it manually."
"The cost of the product can be improved."
"The solution is on-premises. The cloud version of the product, if a person needs to be on the cloud, would be InTune, which already exists as an option. SCCM doesn't need to offer cloud features for this reason."
"SCCM can improve on third-party application support."
"They need to improve the support for the Mac operating system."
