We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and Oracle Enterprise 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."
"Probe packages and probe deployment."
"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 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."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"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."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"The dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager eight out of 10 for stability."
"It's easy to implement as it's made by Oracle for Oracle."
"It is a scalable solution. So far, my company has not faced any issues with the scalability part of the solution."
"I mostly use the top events, and look at how the execution is happening on the database; and monitoring the cluster level rates. I even look at the execution plan."
"The 13cR2 updates to the OEM family, strongly integrate Cloud (off-site, hybrid and on-premise) services providing a seamless way to see all of your resources regardless of where they are deployed."
"We use Oracle Enterprise Manager as a tool to monitor Oracle products."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"I'm very happy with DX Unified Infrastructure Management, but what could be improved is its user interface because currently, it has many wide spaces. All the information you need is in DX Unified Infrastructure Management, and it's a reliable tool, and though that's more important than the gaps in the user interface being smaller or wider, those gaps still need some improvement. I know the team is working on it. My company had some backend problems with DX Unified Infrastructure Management in the past that have now been solved. The setup for the tool also needs improvement because it's complex. Another room for improvement in DX Unified Infrastructure Management is its technical support because it's sometimes not as knowledgeable or responsive. What I'm suggesting to be added to the tool is an open-standard ELK Elastic-based database where you can put in all data, so that you can use the data in other systems as well."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"The only challenge that I have with this solution is the reporting part. The users are not really comfortable with the kind of reports they are getting. Sometimes, they want to see reports in their own format. Customizing those reports with Jasper is not very easy. It could be because of the knowledge gap. If you have the knowledge of how Jasper can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of reporting, it is good. There was a time a customer complained about one issue related to Netflow analysis. Broadcom has a separate model for that, but the customer wanted everything bundled together. It could also have IP management so that I am able to see or analyze IPs so that the IPs that are already in use don't get assigned."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"Stability."
"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."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
"The interface could be more friendly for basic users."
"The product is pretty comprehensive, but quite resource hungry. This might be due to the majority of the application seemingly being written in Java."
"Improving the integration speed would be beneficial, as the current Java-based system can sometimes result in slow responses."
"We would like to have a single dashboard for monitoring and controlling all of our products."
"My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now."
"RMAN tools need improvement."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
