"In July of 2000, we made the decision to purchase and install Computer Associates NetworkIT. After paying approx. $8,000 for NetworkIT, we paid another $19,000 to a consulting firm to come and install, configure, test and perform some knowledge transfer on the product.
This 10-day project proceeded to take 30+ days, at which point we decided we'd be better off ourselves without the consulting firm. That was the first of September. As of yesterday, I still had 80% of my initial objectives to meet with NetworkIT.
At noon today, I installed ELM to take another look at what gaps it could fill in that NetworkIT was having such problems doing. Utterly amazing....by 2pm today, only 2 hours after begin to configure the product, I had ALL BUT 20% of my objectives met, with ELM alone!!! Another hour later, and I had several of my secondary objectives met, things I had completely given up with under NetworkIT!
I had to call their tech support for one question about syslogs, and they fixed it within 5 minutes. I'm floored."
