Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We provide a tool for our customers to manage their reports. It's an extremely highly featured platform capable of producing a lot of data. We spent quite a long time working with customers and LiveAction to create template reports, and they're very good and configurable. You get a lot of data if you don't configure them."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN."
"It is very good if you are a Cisco shop; it gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning."
"The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points."
"The product has a very good graphical interface."
"The intention and the idea of the filter is great, but it is far, far away from good and perfect."
"If you're looking for a tool that will solve your problems in a short period of time more effectively, LiveNX is the right tool."
"On a scale of 1-10, I rate LiveAction LiveNX a nine."
"Network quality monitoring of multicast TV channels and other network monitorings."
"The live packet capture feature enables quicker troubleshooting and better network monitoring."
 

Cons

"The only downside to this software is the price."
"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions."
"Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster."
"Maintenance is required for the system."
"This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved."
"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive."
"The customer service and technical support of LiveAction LiveNX are rated at 4 out of 10."
"They have some unique functionality but they need to create a more simplified UI."
"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

"It's very expensive."
"We use the free version."
"The solution is fairly expensive compared to other products."
