Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"All the metrics are baselines in networks, infrastructure, application, and user experience. AppDynamics offers its own query language. It is called ADQL. You can write code of any kind to do queries and analysis and you can use those within the reporting or within other research.""Application Analytics' most valuable features are the real-user monitoring and the agents installed in the software stack on the application server.""Immediately allows you to see the relationships between the different nodes.""It's pretty stable.""Provides good overall application performance and transaction errors.""We had no issues with scalability. It was very good for us.""The analytics are great."

"The most valuable feature is that everything can be consolidated into one dashboard.""The integration with the ticketing tool makes sure that there is a record for every issue.""From our monitoring perspective or from a visibility perspective, HPE UCMDB is a must have. It's an amazing piece of software.""I've found the solution to be very scalable.""It is stable.""The preloaded rules and ways to monitor your systems are a must.""It has the capability to display overall health of the infrastructure and is very useful for executive reports on the health of the infrastructure.""It has greatly reduced the number and duration of outages as support teams are notified immediately when something goes wrong or even before something breaks."

Cons
"The challenge in the installation is that you have to configure a lot of things manually. The way you install and configure it is not straightforward.""The initial setup is a bit complex.""Application Analytics' performance in pure and native cloud environments could be improved.""This feature needs to be properly described to a client, and then the client needs to have a use case. There are some clients which do not need it and some clients who do. It is not for everyone and is dependant on their use case.""The user experience is quite confusing. There are too many different development stages. The UI is not very intuitive.""Customization requires a few manual tweaks.""This is an expensive solution."

"In a future release, we would like an improved upgrade process. When you upgrade it now, it first uninstalls everything and then reinstalls all the packages, which means any customization that you've done in the directories on the surface disappears.""Installing and upgrading the HPOM and Operations Agent software is not always easy and the process can be quite fragile. Once it is running, it is very quick and stable, but an upgrade can quite easily break something or terminate unexpectedly.""The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA.""The deployment of agents on new CI should be improved. There should be some kind of automation to directly deploy them from the console. It can maybe have some more AI functions because most of the other tools are going in that direction.""The initial setup is a little bit complex.""Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling.""It is a very complicated product. It's difficult to manage. Nowadays, products are very easy to manage, deploy, and integrate, but Operations Bridge is very complicated to manage.""What needs improvement in Micro Focus Operations Bridge is its resource heaviness because you need many resources to deploy and support it. It's a good solution for larger organizations, but for small businesses, not so much."
