Experienced easy deployment and stable performance but user support needs improvement
The most valuable features are that BetterCloud had a much more sophisticated workflow management toolset than Google itself. It was easy to build onboarding and offboarding workflows, which could handle the desired complexity versus out-of-the-box Google. BetterCloud allowed us to reallocate storage so all files created by a departing member would get reallocated to the manager, thus retaining access. BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment. BetterCloud now offers SaaS platform tracking capabilities, a key, previously missing feature.

Experience boosts operational efficiency while performance sees room for improvement
I don't have specific information on whether it was purchased on the AWS marketplace or somewhere else. I am working with Dynatrace Operator. I am also working with Algosec, Alluvio, CrowdStrike, Firemon, Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, and other solutions. I think it's a good tool, and I am satisfied with it. We have not stored cloud workloads with Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline yet; we are still on-premises. The technical support takes about one to two hours to respond, which is acceptable. I am satisfied with the scalability of the product. The interface is good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment."
"You simply cannot use Google Apps without it, so it's a no brainer."
"The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."
"We use Gigamon for network visibility."
"It offers straightforward integration."
"The Pipeline's Comprehensive Insights into data flows have helped improve operational efficiency and security."
"It has high stability."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the encryption feature. From a security perspective, the solution hasn't significantly strengthened our security posture. However, it has greatly improved performance by streamlining encryption processes and avoiding encryption at multiple layers. This has also simplified troubleshooting, as we can whitelist certain processes."
"The solution is straightforward to set up."
 

Cons

"Would love for it to be able to replace our SSO as well as provide connectivity and the same level of automation to our other SaaS products."
"The account support team was weak in engagement and communication, contributing to the decision to move to more comprehensive solutions."
"The security should be improved."
"It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases."
"Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline needs to improve its performance. I face issues with performance because we use SPAN, and the SPAN traffic is not good."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools."
"In terms of improvement, while the initial setup is not overly complicated, we did encounter a few issues."
"They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."
"Its filtering feature needs improvement."
