"The stability has been very good over the years."
"We have found the scalability capabilities to be okay."
"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."
"I enjoy its integration with the Microsoft Active Directory functions, which means users, computers, or other group policies can connect with Windows Active Directory."
"They have great integration with the active directory."
"The most valuable features for us are the monitoring, the health explorer, and the console."
"I like some of their newer features, such as maintenance schedules, because SCOM records SLA and SLO time."
"SCOM has helped us to monitor all the VMs in our environment, especially the Windows servers."
"It's easy to use."
"The solution should offer better integration with other tools from a service management perspective."
"Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect. Having better documentation will allow business analysts and data center personnel to rely on the Micro Focus help desk less."
"The GI is difficult to work with and the reporting servers are also difficult."
"Direct integration with third-party tools, like ticketing systems, is lacking but would be beneficial."
"In a future release, they should add email notification alerts."
"Then there is also an issue with capacity and limited space. That is something that needs to be improved."
"I would like to see more standard libraries for the market solutions, out of the box, that you don't need to do a lot of work on."
"The configurations could be better. There are multiple tests where you can do something, but they can be a trigger as well. The overriding methodologies are not that easy. The configurations are difficult. The configuration and thorough day-to-day operations to get them to the level you want takes some time. It's very difficult."
"Stability and some performance issues exist and they need improvement."
"System Center just provided upgrade and update features for Windows clients, and Windows systems, and did not support Linux, Android, or iOS, and other operating systems. They need to provide better integration with other operating systems if they don't already."
