space, power, and cooling management, the three essential components of capacity management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about openDCIM?

As an openDCIM is open source, the issue of data safety and security features is unavoidable.and one more is while we can correctly align it on some maps, doing so on some other maps is challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am using this for data management as it is a free and open-source application. It is capable of real-time monitoring of certain factors, including power, cooling, fire etc. Capacity management is included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use it to manage data centre infrastructure. The need for a spreadsheet or word-processing document is no longer necessary. It was affordable.

What do you like best about openDCIM?

I like the visual aspect of the cabinets and being able to add your own images for servers and switches. Also, you can store a wealth of information for each server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about openDCIM?

The one thing I dislike is the difficulty of aligning up the rack positions with your diagram of the floor space. On some maps, I can get them to align up correctly while on others they can be off a little bit and it just cascades the errors. On some, I just give up and live with the errors instead of trying to redo them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering openDCIM:

We have come to rely on the information that we store in OpenDCIM for our work. The biggest failure we have had with OpenDCIM is when we fail to keep our data current. As they say, Garbage In Garbage Out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is openDCIM solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it as a database of what we have on the floor of our computer room, which is effective if you keep everything up to date. There are so many more features that we could try to use if we had the time and desire to use, like power usage and network wireing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
