Cons

"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
"The security policies could be increased."
"Regarding ServiceNow, there is room for improvement in terms of customization, particularly in the area of self-customization."

"Enhancing automation-related solutions, such as Wi-Fi, porting, machinery, and product automation would help to achieve better operational outcomes."

Although it is easy to create new patterns and modify the existing ones, it would be better if this solution can have more out-of-the-box patterns. In terms of new features, they can include artificial intelligence, something like machine learning."
"The tool can be improved by including more detailed information to assist new users."
"Even though they call it low code there are a lot of customizations needed, especially from an ITOM standpoint."
