Hi Jason,
We had Microsoft on site yesterday do a full court press.  They are saying that 
scom will do basically everything spectrum will do (minus the Fault Isolation) 
. They say they can manage all flavors of Unix as well using  OMI. Besides the 
SQL monitoring which is a given, they are also claiming to monitor Oracle as 
well.  They also say that 2012 will be able to do log monitoring. I am sure NT 
event logs is a given, but how comprehensive is the third party log monitoring? 
 They make it sound like there’s no need for 3rd party agents to monitor logs 
with 2012.  Anybody else able to provide feedback as well?   By the way  I am 
referring to Spectrum IM 9.2.3.

Thanks
Patrick

By Spectrum do you mean the CA IM 2.0 suite?
One of the big questions - what are you wanting to monitor?
For windows systems SCOM is highly effective
For Network Spectrum is close to unbeatable
For Unix/Linux using the correct agents I would use CA IM 2.0

Hi All,

We are looking for those of you out there that have had experience with 
scom2012. Can you tell us what the major differences between scom2012 and 
Spectrum? Like what does one do better than the other? Pros and cons  ( aside 
from fault isolation, which I don't believe anybody else does) .

Thank you very much
Patrick
