Performance Navigator is the best tool for IBM i
Overall Satisfaction with HelpSystems Performance Navigator
I have more than 6 years of experience using Performance Navigator. The tools are user friendly and useful to collect all the required reports; especially the feature trends for the disk and the number of jobs that are running in system by month-wise. Also, the graphical interface is very nice. The CPU, DASD, Memory and library size difference, [and] especially the reports and current day analysis options are very useful.
Pros
- Disk growth trends.
- Library size change difference.
- CPU, DASD, Memory usage and the Jobs count on month wise.
- Top takers (Jobs) of the CPU%.
Cons
- It's a good tool and no such concerns.
- The product support is awesome.
- Disk growth analysis will help to identify the growth and to add the disk if required.
- CPU utilization report helped us a lot to find out the constant top takers.
- Memory pools utilization report helped a lot to understand the system performance.
IBM i Doctor will also provide the best results since I am using the Performance Navigator for a longer period and its graphical representation attracted me more and [is] easy to understand. Also, the technical support was awesome. [When showing] the disk and CPU stats to the management (non-technical people), the product is very helpful since it is easy to understand the graphs.
