CA UIM is being used for proactively managing our Infrastructure including network, server, storage, databases, and applications. UIM provides advanced analytics and proactive trending reports to quickly troubleshoot root causes. Supports a simplified installation and deployment process with a step-by-step visual wizard which makes it easy to work with different departments. You can build your own dashboards which can provide management and the NOC a single pane view of all critical services and the entire infrastructure.
  • Ease of management
  • Unified platform
  • Depth of infrastructure management. Has numerous probes which can help you monitor every aspect of your environment.
  • Better Integration with Incident Management Tool, For instance CA ServiceDesk Manager (CA SDM)
  • Log Aggregation and reporting on the Log Aggregation
  • More Options with event management, better event correlation.
Deep monitoring of physical network, cloud, and application environments. Application Monitoring. SNMP Monitoring and polling custom Mibs (very impressive). Custom Monitoring using scripts. Supports Heterogeneous Environment. The probes give you the flexibility to monitor almost everything and not wait on the vendors for certification unlike the older CA products (CA eHealth). Better Event Management. Does not provide you the correlation options, which other, products like Splunk (SIEM), have to offer. Still, it has enough options.
  • Provided Root Cause Analysis. Improves your MTTR.
  • Tracking SLA's with service providers.
  • Very configurable. Lightweight agents. Ability to monitor a variety of applications, services, and servers.
  • Ability to create custom dashboards for management and NOC. You can use your own DB queries. Very intuitive.
CA UIM is a perfect replacement for NSM and eHealth. Provides more options and continued support from the vendor.
