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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"As a simple solution for monitoring it's pretty handy, simple to use, very customizable, and integrates with Salesforce."
"It is reliable when it comes to monitoring."
"If you have a highly heterogeneous environment, CA UIM has the best chance of supporting all of your platforms (including probes for more exotic ones)."
"Besides the technical benefits described, CA UIM and CA Spectrum were the key factors in increasing the SLA from the IT environment to 99.99%, from the 99.5% achieved without CA solutions."
"It has provided greater security for our most important asset which is the handling of information."
"The most valuable feature is the very large probe number, over 180, for different technologies, that all communicate their metrics through one product."
"Optimizes delivery of managed IT services with CA Nimsoft Monitor."
"The ability to monitor any platform; we have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
"Network quality monitoring of multicast TV channels and other network monitorings."
"The live packet capture feature enables quicker troubleshooting and better network monitoring."
 

Cons

"It needs more report capabilities; things that make it easier to find them. It needs a central, global, point of view for inventory."
"The UI seems sluggish at times. When you go to maneuver or browse through, it takes a while to update."
"A lot of the admin is web-based. Having the web-admin portal be a bit more scalable and adding the feature of responsive decision-making process, it would be of benefit to us and I’m sure to others as well."
"Stability."
"UIM is showing its age, and needs a major overhaul to keep up with competitors."
"The initial setup is pretty complex."
"Our experience has been that UIM does not do discovery well."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"The web interface is ok, but I would like to see if it was possible to group jobs better and to create our own dashboards."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."
"CAD $400,000 annually."
"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 cost depends on the number of probes and robots."
"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
"The product-price ratio is better than other brands such as Fortinet or SonicWall."
