CONTEG Aegis DCIM review
Aegis DCIM fits facilities teams that need deep energy and environmental visibility.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CONTEG Aegis DCIM is a web-based data center infrastructure management system for facilities teams responsible for energy, environmental conditions, equipment status, alarms, capacity, and circuit-breaker loads. It collects, analyzes, and reports operational information in real time, with support for rack management, power monitoring, cooling monitoring, and space capacity planning. The product is particularly suited to organizations that need visibility across facility, row, rack, and outlet levels rather than a narrow view of individual devices.
Pricing is handled through contact sales, and CONTEG states that solutions are individually designed for customers. The published variants are Server Room, Enterprise DC, and Global, covering data centers of different sizes. This approach may suit teams that need a configured DCIM deployment, while organizations seeking a self-serve purchase path or a fixed public price may prefer an alternative. The product’s standout analytical coverage includes PUE, WUE, and iPUE reporting, multi-level energy monitoring, electrical breaker load monitoring, cooling and electrical capacity management, and visualization for racks, temperature, humidity, CRAC systems, and power meters.
Aegis DCIM also has broad integration and protocol coverage. It supports SAP BAPI, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, Microsoft Access, ODBC, OLEDB, OPC, SNMP, and Kepware OPC protocols, alongside BACnet, Modbus, XML/SOAP, and database-to-database connections. Alarms can address equipment failures and temperature problems, while CFD analysis and what-if scenarios support planning around cooling and capacity. Choose it when energy metrics, environmental monitoring, capacity analysis, and integration with existing infrastructure are central requirements. Choose a narrower alternative if the priority is only basic equipment monitoring or a simpler buying process.
