Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The tool is highly customizable and fits our requirements perfectly. Many changes can be done directly by any admin, what makes the tool very flexible. For lager enhancements the Canfigure support is available with very short reaction time, so the changes can be completed in a timely manner. It is a great database. Any stored information can be used to create and pull a report or KPIs for further evaluation. Automatic synchronization with company AD groups allows easy user/ account managment. The pricing for all the offered functions is out of competition.
  • Canfigure was selected to develop our solution based on comprehensive empirical and subjective RFQ criteria and business reviews. From the first contact for the RFQ through implementation including production support, Canfigure has been professional, responsive, and supportive. As part of the RFQ process, the Canfigure team provided tailored demonstrations of functionality using client data and core functionality aligned with the stated RFQ objectives. The initial demonstrations incorporated this content within 1 week of being selected as a potential provider. Canfigure executes well and delivers on their promises. They engage and work as a seamless member of the project team in a “No Badges” approach to completing the work at hand. Canfigure supported daily development calls and often provided in meeting or next day turnaround on requests for new functionality. The development lead and business analyst demonstrated deep knowledge of industry standards and technical skills which allowed them to absorb large volumes of new information and incorporate it into the solution quickly and with relative ease. When business or technical challenges were encountered Canfigure actively engaged the IT and Business teams to overcome and resolve the issues promptly. Their Volume of work and Velocity are outstanding. The solution Canfigure provided is intuitive, adaptable, and able to accommodate changing business needs. Administrative capabilities are extensive, Power User capabilities provide a tiered level of support that allows effective data maintenance and End User support. End User interfaces are intuitive and simple to use. Workstream Productivity and application performance are exemplary, and serve to integrate and automate a substantial amount of previously manual and disbursed business processes.

Cons

  • It is not an obstacle, but the design is kept rather simple
  • The Canfigure tool is ultimately adaptable and the technical abilities of the Canfigure team are capable of supporting nearly any business or technical request. The tendency within the business is to build an ever expanding wish list of functionality. Left uncontrolled this capability can represent an opportunity for gold plating and scope expansion. To Canfigure’s credit they proactively and cooperatively work with IT and the business to ensure scope, timeline, and budget are maintained. A backlog of enhancement requests were recursively managed and identified for future implementation. Canfigure was responsive to change requests and provided very competitive quotes with reasonable pricing for increased scope requests.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It is easy to install and configure. The reports are completely customizable. Seamless integration with third party applications. It allows us to discover networks, physical and virtual servers easily and import data. It allows visualizing of application dependency mapping.
  • The best feature of Device 42 is that it is highly customizable and flexible in terms of integration with other software programs. The user interface of the software is designed in such a way that it displays all the necessary data in an organized manner. It offers various pre-defined reports and built-in dependency mapping topologies that cut down the input time and increases the overall productivity.
  • Device42 is a great software product that our business team really requires to work on a day to day basis. It is very helpful and really increases productivity.
  • The Room, Rack, and Device model layouts are some of the best features in Device 42. Very much a lightweight Visio for building server rooms, cable diagrams, and rack elevation diagrams for ones IT companies.
  • I like how customizable and versatile of an infrastructure platform Device42 is. The support is better than its peers.

Cons

  • Occasionally the system may be slow which can cause decrease in speed of completing tasks.
  • The user interface and the graphics used in the software feels a bit outdated in use.
  • Not many issues specifically with the product or software. There could be some more functionality built into the product.
  • The UI is a bit dated, lacks modern graphic elements like one we need for a pure data center operations.
  • It can feel slow at times/somewhat laggy, due to how central it is.
