Find out what your peers are saying about Broadcom and others in DX NetOps."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."
"When devices are having performance issues, it proactively build dashboards which allow us to go and do health checks, and resolve problems before they become an issue."
"One of the most valuable features is the ease of use."
"It saves time having it all on one place, so you do not have to jump around from different tools and try to merge the data. It is already done for you."
"The solution's performance itself is very good because it is a vertical database that loads very fast in comparison to other products."
"Since the implementation of the tool, it has cut down on probably 60% of our outages and letting us know what is going on."
"My sales representative, I would not trade him in for the world. He has done a really good job. I am really happy with him."
"It is the gathering of the whole performance data in our environment and our network environment, for us and our customers."
"The reporting of the solution is very good."
"Technical support is always live and they're supportive."
"I have found the most valuable feature is application performance management."
"The product has a great dashboard."
"Some of the most valuable features of SolarWinds are the topology discovery and network performance analysis."
"The sum solution, NTA, and DPA."
"Global synchronization errors. Sometimes it just doesn't finish in time due to the load."
"There are some areas in the technology right now, like with VMs, where we are lacking with our abilities to get inside the VM to monitor traffic within the machine."
"It needs role-based administration."
"The solution could improve the database model. It is also not very good because they have a lot of interconnections with other data sources, such as NFA and VNA."
"CA PM can be complex to build and configure. Creating the folders / groups / sites required establishing many rule sets."
"Policies could be improved."
"I have mixed feeling about the scalability. I feel like there are things which are being put into UIM right now that are not being included in Performance Center that we need to see in Performance Center. We are kind of being driven to buy UIM, and I can't justify it."
"This solution is not very scalable."
"I would like to see more integration with other tools that are available on the market."
"The integration with Unix services should be a bit more straightforward."
"In terms of the technology, I think they need to put some more advanced troubleshooting into SolarWinds, in terms of AI capabilities. That's the next generation, especially in the cases of APIs which have already adopted AI capabilities into their products."
"AppOptics would benefit from having a much more centralized view."
"The solution should be more user-friendly."
"The implementation needs improvement. It needs to get modernized with the newer cloud scenario in both public and private deployment models."
