A320 vs. 737NG (CFDS & ACARS)

If I am not mistaken, newer A320s fitted with ACARS can be set-up to relay all ECAM warnings and failure messages to Base in real-time. Similarly, engine performance can also be reviewed by Engineers at Base in real-time.

My understanding is that on the B737NGs fitted with ACARS, only engine performance parameters can be reviewed in real-time at Base since there is really no equivalent to CFDS on the Boeings.

Are my assumptions correct?

Thanks for any info.

Best regards,
