Solid product, but still needs work

Some more options would be nice, being able to perform dhcp functions like reserving addresses, checking device mac address, etc.

VMan Review
What do you like best about the product?
It makes it a lot easier to manage your virtualization platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
The time it takes to learn how to use it.

That you can set up alerts on different issues.
Good detailed product--at a price
What do you like best about the product?
Full range of features, alerting capabilities, the breath of supported devices
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost mostly, and their sales force--very, very pushy
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Instant notifications of downed devices, hardware or application issues--through a single interface
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have the budget, SW is a wonderful product. We don't use it for many of our devices (especially Cisco netflows) just because of the costs. If you use the app monitoring tools, it can give you great insight into your applications, ie VMware and Windows. And the Virtualization Manager is a great add-in with a deep-dive into your hypervisor, but again, it's oppressively expensive.
