Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's very easy to manage and use."
"You can customize alerts based on need."
"The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"Its initial setup process is relatively straightforward."
"Sentry is a pretty stable product... Sentry's documentation is pretty straightforward and neat."

"The solution is user-friendly."

Cons

"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"I would like to have alert policies and alert conditions enhanced in the next release."
"Its debugging feature needs to be faster."
"The price could be lowered."
"It would be nice if the product provided a map showing the users’ geographic location."
"Lacks user metric tracking and the ability to create more dashboards."
"To deal with its shortcomings, Sentry needs to continuously improve in areas like the user interface and documentation, apart from its other features."
"We cannot restrict particular columns on particular data. It would be helpful if that feature was improved."
"The log centralization and analysis could be improved in Sentry."
