Fast support they follow the case to the end, and ask newbie about stuff and help out if you’re in doubt

Pros

The overview of item power connections assets It a huge tool. Find new corner’s every day So I think I could learn something new every day But I don’t have the time

Cons

There was already a patch to install when I was finished, so I had to wait before I could start to get a feeling with the software But it could mean we work fast and will not let our customers down

Reason for choosing Sunbird DCIM

### "The product is extremely useful when trying to determine overall facility power consumption."

June 14, 2017

5.0

Being a High Impact FISMA IT system we are required to have automated mechanisms in place for all aspects of the system to include infrastructure. The power requirement has been satisfied.

Pros

I've found it very easy to configure and use. Setup was a breeze out of the box and any local shortcomings were easily rectified by tech support.

Cons

Reporting capabilities are somewhat limited. I had trouble initially setting up the reports and would have liked the output to be a little more granular.

February 1, 2021

4.0

From what I've seen and used so far DC-Track has been overall pretty easy to use and implement into our work environment.

Cons

### "Sunbird review"

June 6, 2019

4.0

\- We can look in our datacenters without having someone there - Nice dashboards with information about rack space, power usage etc.

Pros

Sunbird gives us the possibility to show in which datacenter, rack and U height or assets are without having someone on site. With dcTrack and PowerIQ togheter i can see everything i want in one dashboard.

Cons

Because there are a lot of features sometimes its hard to find out how it works. \*But the Sunbird support is good and there's a lot of documentation.

### "Tanner's Sunbird DCIM Software Review"

June 17, 2016

5.0

We were tracking all of our PDUs through spread sheets and monitoring ping through solarwinds before coming across this product. It has helped our facilities staff immensely with monitoring power usage throughout all of our sites.

Pros

I really like the Data Center tab where i can expand down and see what equipment and pdus are located in each rack.

Cons

When setting the display to PDU name it hides the IP address of the PDU and vice versa. It was apparently a security concern for some companies, but a pain for us.

### "Excellent Customer Service"

May 2, 2022

5.0

Trying to get full asset management and control for tracking and assignments in lab environment...was planning to expand to use PowerIQ but not looking promising at this point.

Pros

Asset Inventory feature was primary driving force behind purchasing the dcTrack license...unfortunately I am still struggling to get the software setup and operational since I am not experienced with APIs to ease initial setup.

Cons

Cannot get asset inventory setup easily/successfully.

### "Review"

November 3, 2020

4.0

Pros

Looks easy and intuitive to use. Low maintenance. Does what it says.

Cons

Exporting data needs to be customised correctly otherwise the data is aggregated. But when you have many devices, customising initial report is a chore. Needs to support modern authentication methods.

January 25, 2019

5.0

Pros

Very easy to use and straightforward. Customer service representatives were nice and very helpful as well!

Cons

We experienced high volumes of alert notifications, but one of the way we dealt with this was by lowering/raising the thresholds for each sensor.

December 14, 2019

Thank you for the positive review. We have recently made it even easier to manage your threshold levels in release 7.0, plus added 3 phase balance thresholds and circuit breaker state change.

### "Sunbird DCIM - Great software, Great service"

September 28, 2018

5.0

Going from Excel spreadsheets to using Sunbird is awesome. We are now able to produce the required reports in minutes as opposed to hours. We are newer users of Sunbird but I am very happy we made the decision to work with them.

Pros

The software is very compact and even with a small learning curve easy to use. We installed Sunbird according to the provided instructions and performance has been great. Best support I have seen in a long while for any software we use. You call or email and are instantly contacted back. People are very helpful even after talking to them multiple times a day.

Cons

The nature if DCIM software is very tedious and that is not a shot at Sunbird because it would be the same with any of the software you can buy.
