Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure Capacity Planning solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Scalability is the reason we bought the product to begin with. It was designed from the ground up for carrier-grade services, and we are in effect a MSP ourselves. So we were really interested in looking at something to be able to handle the multi-tenancy and scale as large as possible. This was the only solution that we really considered at that level."
"I can get it to run a report showing, for instance, what root drives are in the critical range in terms of being full, like 90 percent full, and disseminate that information to the other areas of the organization."
"The integration with NetFlow, the NFA solution, so that we can have our flow forensics paired with the SNMP polling performance metrics on the same page."
"It gave us one location, one place to do all of group administration, and to build dashboards, and device administration, inventory counts... it really reduced our overall administrative overhead."
"You can create intelligent alerts so you have enough time to replace the router or interface before it's full. The same is applicable for CBQoS channels."
"We're able to present data from multiple back-end collection sources into a single dashboard for the users. So they don't have to go to multiple locations to get data about a particular item, or device."
"One feature I like about CA Performance Management is the certification of the devices."
"The feature that is inherent to its core, of being able to graphically represent a trend and status, is nice."
"It helps to plan how you can scale up your environment, and it gives an overview of your entire infra."
"Easy access to resources of our cloud."
"We experience disconnections between the solutions own components."
"I'm not a fan of many extra features since they usually burden the software and reduce its reliability."
"Since we are out of registered IP space, we are moving to ipv6 and we expect our vendors to move with us, and they have not delivered yet."
"Policies could be improved."
"CA PM can be complex to build and configure. Creating the folders / groups / sites required establishing many rule sets."
"This solution's implementation process could be quicker. They could also optimize the hardware requirements."
"This tool gathers so much data, which makes it hard to convert over. To upgrade it, you really need the solution backed up. That is the issue that we are facing right now."
"Product has issue collecting IP SLA data."
"It needs to improve the capacity planning."
"It should have more reporting features. It will help in getting more reporting information."
