Senior Systems Engineer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Easy to set up, simple to use, and offers great technical support

There are quite a few manual processes. We've had issues with pulling reports. Sometimes we have trouble or get errors. The reporting process should be easier. If you have a hub, you should be able to have an unlimited number of servers. For example, if you have 500 servers, and the limit is ten, you have to pull 50 reports. We'd like to just pull one report for all servers. This also increases the time to pull reports. If we have to pull more reports, it takes that much longer than just pulling one. The product can be expensive. Right now, they are updating and consolidating the dashboard. I'm expecting an update that will resolve a few glitches in the server.

Senior Systems Engineer at a energy/utilities company with 201-500 employees

Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive

It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."

"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."

"Probe packages and probe deployment."

"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."

"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."

"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."

"It is very scalable."

More DX Unified Infrastructure Management pros

"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."

"Offers a diversity of features."

Cons

"Stability."

"We would like to see automatic network topology."

"We've had issues with pulling reports."

"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."

"Better support and more accessible resources are crucial. Customers have expressed that support is not as flexible, and it is difficult to obtain necessary information quickly."

"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."

"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."

"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."

More DX Unified Infrastructure Management cons

"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."

"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers pay for the license and the support."

"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."

"The license cost depends on the number of probes and robots."

"This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."

"CAD $400,000 annually."

"The product-price ratio is better than other brands such as Fortinet or SonicWall."

"Pricing for DX Unified Infrastructure Management isn't cheap at all. It's a complex tool, so you have to pay more. No one is happy with a large bill to pay, but if it's a complex product and you designed a complex solution to be monitored, it'll be your fault that you need to buy an expensive product, and that would be implicit in the design of DX Unified Infrastructure Management. Monitoring is just a small part of it. Sometimes you have to pay a significant amount of money for a complex yet very good solution."

"The price seems reasonable."
