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.

Operation Director at Digital Pulse Sdn Bhd
A suitable choice for unified and efficient infrastructure monitoring across diverse environments providing user-friendly GUI, cost-effectiveness, and versatility
We use it for this specific client, they've deployed multiple instances of it across various locations to facilitate monitoring. To effectively monitor their infrastructure, it seems necessary to implement additional monitoring solutions for all three types of devices they have Nagios Fusion…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"It is easier for client installation, and the configurations are doable even for a newcomer in the field."
"It's very easy to manage and monitor it."
"Being open source lets us customize it for our monitoring needs, saving us money."
"Nagios Fusion version 12.8 excels in user-friendly GUI design, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment."
 

Cons

"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"I would like to see auditability. We've built our own audit functionality to ensure that every CI has the desired model configuration applied to it. And we run that on a daily basis. If that became part of the product, I think it might be a little bit less intensive in terms of resource, because we're doing it with scripts."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"Nagios Fusion should include a 'remember me' option when logging in, so we don't need to enter a username and password every time."
"There are some bugs, although not that many. There are some situations where the solution is not stable but the number of problems is not very high."
"In future iterations of this solution, there is a desire for more seamless integration with other monitoring software."
"Adding application performance monitoring to the product alongside infrastructure monitoring would make it a more complete and useful solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"CAD $400,000 annually."
"The license cost depends on the number of probes and robots."
"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
"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 pricing is quite reasonable, especially when compared to the broader market."
