Re: Grid Control - opinions please

Thanks for all the replies.

I will summarize what I have perceived from this thread:

• GC is not better than OEM. In fact, there are more bugs, different/harder navigation, iAS makes installation and troubleshooting more difficult
• It is an enterprise level tool. While several of you seem to like OEM for day to day tasks, the majority do not like GC too much. See first bullet point.

My own thoughts on the matter: GC is supposed to be a tool to ease administration. When you spend vast amounts of time, energy and $$ to install/troubleshoot/administer a tool, and it is poorly supported, there's not much point in using it.

Sound about right?
