Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The monitoring features are the most valuable. We have seen a major benefit from that so far."
"I like the historical reporting of observer metrics."
"It is very good at monitoring Microsoft Server."
"The advantages of SCOM are that it is definitely user friendly and a more appropriate solution for what we need."
"It's easy to use."
"Because it's Windows-based, it actually reports quite well. It reports everything you can think of on the Windows server and allows you to monitor anything. It's excellent for those in the Windows world as it's very good at it."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of Windows and Linux servers."
"We have found the scalability capabilities to be okay."
"The most valuable functionality is some of the policy pieces that are quite useful."
"Versa Director is the fastest engineering tool and is ideal for use without product management."
"The most valuable feature of Versa Director is analytics."
"Versa Director's best feature is the ease of configuration and customer and vendor management."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It'll help if they can provide real-time or closer to real-time monitoring."
"Non Windows monitoring is fairly weak. Network device monitoring is not reliable."
"The solution’s initial setup is difficult."
"In a future release, they should add email notification alerts."
"I would like to see them improve their network monitoring."
"It could use some system enhancements, such as better dashboards."
"They can focus more on cloud monitoring instead of on-premise monitoring. We should be able to monitor cloud-related applications. They can include this feature in the next release. If it is in the cloud, we can have scalability by using Kubernetes. The container is containerized, packaged, and managed using Kubernetes. This feature is not there in SCOM. Going forward, if they can focus on that, it will be great."
"Then there is also an issue with capacity and limited space. That is something that needs to be improved."
"What needs improvement in Versa Director is maturity because, from an operating point of view, it's not mature enough. You'll still need to do a lot of research on Versa Director, so if it could mature faster, that would be very good."
"Versa could be more AI-oriented."
"Versa Director's deployment process is not the best."
"It requires some simplification."
