Delivers comprehensive and customizable system management with increased efficiency

Pros

"The visual look of the interface is very easy to understand what is happening and somewhat why it's happening."

Cons

"There is area for improvement, maybe in the reporting. It could use some work in reporting."

Used to monitor several devices, but most reports do not give information of all the devices

Pros

"ControlUp has some good functionalities, such as remotely pushing scripts in the device through the tool."

Cons

"Most reports give information about the top 100 devices, but not all of the devices."

Helps to identify performance issues or high resource utilization, allowing quick troubleshooting

Pros

"ControlUp is beneficial as it provides a web interface through which you can access all your infrastructure—servers, devices, and VDI infrastructure—all on the same platform. It supports gathering all infrastructure components in a single, unified dashboard. This helps you identify performance issues or high resource utilization, allowing quick troubleshooting. I appreciate the solid interface that ControlUp offers."

Cons

"There was some lag earlier, and reports pulled from the dashboard would sometimes be half an hour old. But now, the information provides real-time status, which is greatly appreciated. Overall, I've seen improvement in the product."

Simple to set up with real-time insights and good analysis and automation capabilities

Pros

"It shows you so many details of what's going on in that log-on that, if there's a problem, you can identify it in five minutes."

Cons

"Something I would love to see from a partner perspective would be maybe a way to do this in a surface hosting provider."

Contemporary features, good user interface, and a quick turnaround time

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the granularity of visibility into the resources that are in use by our applications. "

Cons

"The most common complaint that I have heard, at least within our organization, is about reporting. They have their own reporting. It's just that it doesn't yet include everything that you can look at within the application. You can only report on specific metrics or collections."

Useful endpoint monitoring, plenty of features, and minimal maintenance

Pros

"The most valuable features in ControlUp are endpoint monitoring and the many features that are available."

Cons

"ControlUp could improve the integration. Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop monitoring has better integration."

Great for troubleshooting and reporting with a controller that allows for configuration comparisons

Pros

"The script-based actions have allowed us to extend the core reporting capabilities. "

Cons

"Solve is a quick and intuitive tool for quickly mapping data together, however, once you have the view of the data that you like, it is difficult to share this with colleagues."

Monitoring software with a valuable UI making it possible to analyze reactions and complete troubleshooting

Pros

"When using ControlUp, the core feature that we have found valuable is its UI. It is a valuable tool to view the analysis reactions of a base core Level 2 or Level 1 team so that they can complete the necessary troubleshooting."

Cons

"This solution be improved by including load throttling tools. For example, I can identify a service where we spend a lot of CPU but I cannot restrict the service from ControlUp. I have to use another tool like AppSense. "
