Telemetry insights have improved how I track user behavior and application performance daily
I feel Azure Monitor does a fair job. I do feel it is not a streaming service in my opinion. There are advantages to having stream messaging and logging on that level. But for what it is, I feel it does well. My perspective is more based on an Application Insights agent running on a service or an app service and sending the telemetry via the agent, and also doing the filtering of telemetry at the agent level so you are not having a ton of telemetry. I believe Azure Monitor does pretty much the same thing. I have also used tools such as New Relic, and New Relic is a much more robust tool, but that is a different product and you are going to pay for that. It is a different offering altogether. The subscription that we had at the time allowed for a couple gigabytes of telemetry during the month, and I believe that telemetry only lives for about two months. You have to experiment with it to see how much you want to pay. I was not really involved in the pricing. It was more along the lines of we were running up against our limits in terms of the amount of free telemetry or telemetry that we get with our subscription, and so we either needed to scale back or turn specific telemetry types off or do some more sampling. It is nice that those capabilities are there so that you can reduce the amount of telemetry. I cannot really speak to pricing but I do believe that it is somewhat reasonable for Azure Monitor. New Relic is pretty expensive, I believe.

Regarding Savision Live Maps's AI capabilities, I think accuracy was pretty good, as it gave most of the information that we were able to validate, so it's all good. The advice I would give to others looking into using Savision Live Maps is that I think it's a good product; it's a new thing, and the AI capabilities are obviously improving every day, so I'm looking forward to more improvements and more use cases, and hopefully we can scale it in different departments and for different projects. I gave Savision Live Maps a rating of 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a good enough product for anyone wanting something that might not be top of the range but it does the work easily, is simple to configure and is a fair price."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is that it ensures our servers are up."
"Good load and metrics gathering and very good analysis."
"It is a move-in powerful feature compared to other market-leading tools."
"The product is stable."
"Azure Monitor has made it much easier for us to constantly monitor the infrastructure and applications with possible problems."
"Azure Monitor gives us the observability to check everything that we have in the cloud."
"Savision Live Maps has impacted my organization positively because it helps visually represent nodes and understand dependencies, which helps us understand breakages and issues in production."
"This helps to centralize multiple monitoring solutions and streamline integration into ITSM."
"The dashboards and views available are easy to manage and share, and provide all of the metrics required."
 

Cons

"Azure Monitor could improve the visualization aspect and integrate better with other third-party services."
"The cost skyrockets once you start using it, and there are complaints that the actual cost of the Kubernetes cluster was less than the cost they were incurring for Azure Monitor."
"I feel Azure Monitor does a fair job. I do feel it is not a streaming service in my opinion."
"The onboarding process of certain assets and the overall UI can be improved in Azure Monitor"
"The technical support could be improved - their response time can be quite slow."
"The monitoring of Kubernetes clusters needs improvement to be on par with competitors."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"There are a lot of things that take more time to do, such as charting, alerting, and correlation of data, and things like that. Azure Monitor doesn't tell you why something happened. It just tells you that it happened. It should also have some type of AI. Environments and applications are becoming more and more complex every day with hundreds or thousands of microservices. Therefore, having to do a lot of the stuff manually takes a lot of time, and on top of that, troubleshooting issues takes a lot of time. The traditional method of troubleshooting doesn't really work for or apply to this environment we're in. So, having an AI-based system and the ability to automate deployments of your monitoring and configurations makes it much easier."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is a monthly fee."
"My company is okay with the current pricing of the solution."
"The solution is a pay-as-you-go consumption service and is the least expensive in the market."
"Azure Monitor is a low-priced solution, which is why it would work best on small-scale projects."
"The cost of Azure Monitor application performance should be less expensive."
"There is a monthly fee for the alerts triggered and the data stored."
"Besides standard licensing fees the customer needs to additionally pay based on the ingested data size"
"The product offers a pay-as-you-go model to users. The charges are to be paid according to the usage of the product."
