Impressive automation capabilities, predicts problems, and even find unseen vulnerabilities across your infrastructure
The biggest challenge is ensuring the customer has sufficient ITSM maturity to get the most out of the solution. BMC Helix is very sophisticated, and some clients lack that internal process maturity. There's sometimes a gap between the solution's capabilities and the client's readiness. We have to bridge that gap, bringing the customer up to the level where they can fully use all the features and benefits. Otherwise, they're investing in a powerful tool they don't fully utilize. It's crucial for vendors like us to assess client maturity before the project starts. We need to do the consulting work to show them the solution's potential and help them evaluate if it truly makes sense. Sometimes, the client might not be ready for the way BMC does things, for that level of automation and AI. BMC's automation is like nothing I've seen. You can even deflect 30% of IT service desk tickets with an intelligent chatbot – that's a number from BMC. Imagine the reduction in human agents! It's a robot doing the work, but in a way that feels human... that's the impressive part. You can integrate with WhatsApp, Teams, etc. It's game-changing.

Filters the noise and consolidating alerts into a single situation report
Moogsoft's integration options are somewhat limited. It primarily relies on webhooks and APIs for data input, meaning external systems must push data to Moogsoft; it cannot pull data independently. If I want to connect CloudWatch or Prometheus to Moogsoft, I have to write custom code on the Prometheus side to send data through Moogsoft’s APIs or webhooks. Other monitoring tools like Splunk and Dynatrace typically have agents that reside on the system, automatically collecting and sending data. This difference can create challenges for teams needing seamless integration. Although Moogsoft has developed some plugins, such as those for Grafana and Zabbix, that are ready to use, they don’t have comprehensive support for every tool. Splunk has developed an AI assistant that can answer your queries and everything else. Moogsoft lacks that. Dynatrace has this AI component that will identify things on its own. On the other end, Moogsoft, you must set up the workflow. You have to come and set up the cookbooks. ServiceNow also has good event correlation. Splunk is fantastic with the event correlation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BMC Helix Operations Management with AIOps' predictive analytics positively impacted proactive problem-solving capabilities. It has been the most interesting part of the solution! It provides detailed analytics that gives you a deep understanding of your infrastructure and recurring issues/problems. It really predicts the problems."
"BMC Helix Operations Management with AIOps deserves a ten out of ten."
"It is evolving more and more into artificial intelligence."
"The service operations monitoring features are valuable."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that BMC Helix Monitor is an agentless tool, because of which you don't need to deploy agents on each and every system in your IT environment."
"Moogsoft AIOps integrates seamlessly with 50-plus IT monitoring, automation, service management, notification, and collaboration tools. It also provides a great and easy-to-use interface for observing."
"The tool's event correlation and AI are its strongest parts."
"I like the prediction features."
"Moogsoft helps manage alert fatigue by consolidating various alerts into a single portal instead of monitoring them across different devices, allowing team members to own alerts and monitor them efficiently, which benefits the whole team."
"Incident management is streamlined with Moogsoft. One standout feature is its unique situation-creation capability, differentiating it from other fault management tools. While other tools typically convert alarms directly into tickets or incidents, Moogsoft adds a middle layer where multiple alarms can be aggregated into one incident. Moogsoft's strong AI capabilities also allow it to correlate similar alarms automatically based on past experiences."
"There are AI features in Moogsoft. Moogsoft has one wonderful feature that allows you to convert multiple alarms into situations. Generally, all other MoM tools get the alarms, and then convert it into an incident directly. There is one extra layer they have added before converting any alarm into an incident. Suppose there are multiple alarms that are somehow all related to a single source of issue. It converts all the alarms into a single situation, which then gets converted into an incident."
"The product currently seems to be a few steps ahead of the competition."
"Moogsoft is easily deployable and ready to use."
 

Cons

"The solution's GUI and some patching-related information are areas with shortcomings where enhancements are needed, though I believe they are areas that fall under BMC's roadmap for the future."
"I feel that the tool's stability has some scope for improvement."
"The product must provide more information and dashboards."
"The initial setup of the solution is complex."
"The biggest challenge is ensuring the customer has sufficient ITSM maturity to get the most out of the solution. BMC Helix is very sophisticated, and some clients lack that internal process maturity."
"Moogsoft is dependent on external products to do orchestration and SOP-based functionality."
"It is taking a long time to set it up and could do more to roll out quickly."
"The tool needs to improve its support. It appears that the support responsiveness from Moogsoft is not aligned with the severity of the incident. Instead of proactively addressing issues, customers have to chase Moogsoft for resolution. In Moogsoft, unlike other tools like Splunk, the process follows a step-by-step sequence. You need to start each process in a specific order, typically following a sequence."
"I would like to see more integrations. It is rather difficult to install the enterprise systems with the agents."
"They are very much dependent on open-source technologies like RabbitMQ message bus. They are using open-source databases, Apache Tomcat, NGINX. If we face any issues with Apache Tomcat or the RabbitMQ message bus, then we do not get support from them. We have to troubleshoot it ourselves."
"I would like to see how Moogsoft integrates with the multi-cloud and brings out a single pane of glass, to see everything on one screen."
"The solution's initial setup is complex, and it should be made easier."
"The product roadmap doesn't align with our roadmap."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BMC solution is cheaper than ServiceNow, its main competitor. So, I'd rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"The product’s price could be improved."
"Moogsoft's licensing is consumption-based, so the price may increase depending on the environment."
"As for pricing, Moogsoft recently updated their pricing model, and we're still evaluating it. It's an area where clarity is needed with the new alert-based pricing model."
"When compared to other solutions, it is quite good."
"The solution is very good from a business impact point of view, but it's quite expensive because it's an enterprise-grade solution."
"It's a very cost-effective and competitive product."
