Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
CEO / Co-Founder at Aiops ltd
Automated incident workflows have reduced alert noise and now improve response efficiency
In my opinion, the best feature of BigPanda is its speed in terms of deployment. It has very strong integration with all of the major platforms and workflows that organizations need. The biggest customers are enterprises like HSBC and Barclays. Implementing something effective for them that dramatically reduces meantime to repair and the number of incidents is substantially difficult, as projects can often extend three years with very small results. BigPanda is different; it is a tool relied on by many enterprises, fitting over existing toolsets rather than trying to replace them, which makes it non-competitive to many existing alerts and monitoring tools. It enhances existing systems to provide actionable intelligence for business solutions.

Struggled with complex licensing and limited support but have gained unified cloud monitoring
We face certain challenges with monitoring website uptime for our business operations because we don't have that 24/7 monitoring, so that's what we are working with ManageEngine on, regarding how effectively we can use that. I may not be able to give that information on how ManageEngine Site24x7 can be improved, but I felt that the monitoring or the licensing terms, such as the advanced monitors or monitors, are not very user-friendly. I feel that because I don't know how exactly we can check what devices use which license and how we can control those things; that's not user-friendly. For example, if I have to look at what all devices are utilizing my advanced monitor license or what all devices are using my basic monitor license, then if I want to pull a report or validate them, I don't have an easy option; it's too complicated.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"The most useful feature has been the AI/ML. The way BigPanda uses the AI/ML is good compared to other SRE tools."
"The most valuable features of BigPanda are the API integration was good; it enables us to do faster onboarding."
"If you're looking for a SaaS which truly believes in software as a service, BigPanda is definitely the solution to go for."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise."
"The most valuable features of BigPanda include event deduplication, correlations, and enrichment, which reduce the noise in the environment."
"The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"Alert aggregation was the primary requirement. BigPanda pulls all this together into a single UI for us, allowing us to see related alerts grouped together into an incident, and enables us to easily create a JIRA ticket and Slack channel to manage an issue."
"Site24x7 stands out. It is truly amazing."
"The deployment was not a challenge for us, because we are just trying to connect to the cloud instance; it's SaaS-based, so we just had to route all our traffic to that particular device."
"One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues."
 

Cons

"Our infrastructure is quite large - tens of thousands of servers, often with 30-plus checks running on each host with one minute intervals. This generates a lot of data often in bursts (when we have a large scale failure), and this has caused some delay in the ingestion pipeline."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"BigPanda sometimes creates false incidents and workarounds, causing financial disturbances because we pay for each incident."
"BigPanda could improve by syncing its threshold settings with Dynatrace to align with users' familiarity."
"BigPanda can improve the correlations. We didn't see any big value."
"The solutions were quite useful but not completely stable."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"The product is not difficult to use. That said, it is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"It is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"The only complaint I would state about the technical support by ManageEngine is we don't get them on call; it's only email support that we get."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay $200,000 USD per year."
"BigPanda is cheaper than the competitors."
"The price of BigPanda is in the middle compared to other solutions."
"They were great to work with on pricing/licensing. Given we are a high-growth company, we needed a flexible site license."
