Broadcom Unified Infrastructure Management can work extremely well in an environment where customers prefer an agent-based monitoring solution. However, it works pretty well for the entire infrastructure, but if a customer is looking for in-depth network monitoring, then it might not be able to provide complete coverage for all the types of network devices.

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.

Well Suited:
- Multiple units (you may split Nimsoft per Groups, companies, etc.)
- When your Business Teams NEED Dashboards (they'll love it after they learn how to use, for example, if they discover that the may even run SQL queries together with monitor the webpage of the application, and display business data)

Less appropriate:
- If you are beginning to monitor your environment (because you need to know your environment at least a little bit to check if the entire set of monitoring Nimsoft plugins will really help you or you will only use it to ping your application)
- If you don't have at least one (i do recommend 2 or 3 after some short time) people dedicated to deploy and fine-tune the monitoring. The tool is really good, but if you don't have anyone working on it, you will notice that you're spending money in an elephant to kill an ant or worst, that you passed the entire year, and still have the same problems of the last year, cause no one put the hands enough time in the tool. I saw this happening during the first year when I was the only one working with the tool and still supporting the entire team.

I've been really happy with the amount of performance data and reporting options that I've been able to get out of UIM. Performance hardware statistics take no more than a few mouse clicks. Also, as mentioned in the pros section, deployment and configuration is very intuitive and easy.

This is a great solution for companies of all sizes and can really be utilized for much more than you think. This product is not a standard monitoring solution, it is truly a framework, allowing you to architect and design to fit your needs. We find that as long as the technology has a way to be monitored, or communicated with, we can figure out a way to use CA Unified Infrastructure Management (UIM).
