We performed a comparison between AWS Auto Scaling and OpenText Real User Monitoring based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The various scaling options available, such as step scaling, are particularly useful."
"The product provides self-healing features."
"AWS Auto Scaling is cost-effective and very useful for businesses."
"The solution's monitoring effectively monitors our application and CPU utilization."
"The good thing about Autoscaling is that it provides the capacity to minimize downtime. So, it gives you the assurance of stability and robustness within your system."
"It is a stable platform."
"The tool's most valuable feature is vertical auto-scaling, which is easy to use. However, most companies now prefer horizontal scaling. I set up the health check integration to monitor CPU usage. When it reaches seventy percent, it sends me an email notification."
"Our internal business applications are hosted in AWS Auto Scaling."
"The reporting feature is good for us."
"The technical support is good at resolving issues."
"Very easy to implement."
"The Real User Monitor, with its transaction and synthetic transaction monitoring, is the typical classic in APM cases when the customer would like to do transaction monitoring. Micro Focus scores better where the underlying infrastructure management is also covered by Micro Focus tools."
"The most useful feature of this solution is tracking. When the application's traffic has been monitored it is taken from that particular application and analyzed. It is then given a live session of that particular user. For example, if you are using your bank application to do some kind of transaction, everything that you do can be tracked by that application."
"The most valuable feature is application performance monitoring."
"Real User Monitor has improved our productivity."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"The setup can be a bit complex in some situations."
"It could be cheaper."
"The only area of improvement is the speed at which servers are launched. When cleaning up to six servers at a time, it can take up to 15 to 20 minutes to launch new servers."
"AWS Auto Scaling's documentation could be better."
"The solution's infrastructure scalability and elasticity could be improved."
"The product could add more features for managing instances."
"We can have more auto scaling algorithms implemented in AWS Auto Scaling."
"One area to improve is the user interface, of course. The second one is their R&D has virtually stopped building a product roadmap."
"We would like to see support for non-Windows environments."
"This technology is considered to be older."
"Real User Monitor needs to cover more protocols to provide more in-depth information. It could also be better at monitoring voice-related traffic. There is currently no visibility in that channel."
"Everybody is moving away from traffic and installing agents on the application to do the job, but Micro Focus is using traditional ways to collect the traffic. They should change their architecture completely."
"Some issues with login errors."
"When we want to monitor our encrypted traffic, this product doesn't work because our cipher is not supported."
