Overall Satisfaction with IntelliMagic Vision for SAN

We're using IntelliMagic Vision to identify capacity trends, errors in our SAN infrastructure, especially FC SAN switches, anomalies. We like the feature to compare the recent measured values against the same one week or one month before to identify trends and anomalies. With IntelliMagic Vision we will visualize any hidden errors and get them fixed before they may cause any outage.
  • Comparison of metrics from today to the day a week before to visualize any trends
  • drilldown into the end-to-end mapping from the individual host to the Storage pool on the DSS
  • Easy-of-use changing of reports/thresholds as needed
  • the interface could be a bit more modern
  • drilldown and visualization of mapping between VM and the LUN on the DSS
Broadcom SANnav is being used as well but it has a different scope of features

Yes - I did already many upgrades in the last few years and each upgrade was very simple and straight forward with minimum downtime.
  • addition of new standard reports
  • changing the Collector from using BNA as source of data to collecting the data directly from the switches
  • modern interface
  • the reports which I requested from them being made standard reports
