Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

Quotes from Members

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

"I like the graphs provided by the tool."

"The setup is not very complex."
"It can scale."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it scales automatically without manual intervention based on the metrics we provide."
"The product is simple to use."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."

Cons

"There hasn't been a need for improvements."
"The solution must improve automation."
"Setting up the configuration involves too much work for the cloud engineer."
"The setup can be a bit complex in some situations."
"Flexibility in configuring the workload is missing in AWS Auto Scaling."
"The speed of the solution must be improved."
"It has latency issues. It depends on the distribution used, whether it's Amazon Linux, Windows Linux, etc. Occasionally, there are latency issues, which might lead to slower performance."
"The billing and cost optimization of the solution could be improved."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."

"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"It is not expensive."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"The product is very cheap."
