Featured Reviews

Ayobanji Iluyomade - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution is stable and can be used for monitoring and managing events, but it does not provide application or service monitoring features
We are moving from basic monitoring to AIOps, where we can do things like self-healing. We also want to create dashboards for IT and business users to show the status of their services. We have done a couple of demos. I recommend the solution to others. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.
Mark Tukh - PeerSpot reviewer
Leverages comprehensive network monitoring and AI-driven automation for enhanced performance analysis
There is a model for network traffic analysis in the NetOps product called NetOps Flow Analyzer. It provides all the necessary protocols and analysis. DX NetOps supports network monitoring across hybrid environments, though I hope it works out of the box. The product features include automation through AI, allowing out-of-the-box analysis of performance data, building baseline trends, and enabling configuration of dynamic thresholds relative to collected data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"The ability to pull hosts together to show what processes are running, so it can be used for change management."
"The tool is flexible enough to be customized based on customer requirements."
"It provides common administration, and a Single Sign-On Platform with RBAC, which eases the cross launch between multiple tools"
"It has provided us with a single location to host all events to be viewed/monitored by our NOC. This has greatly helped them to streamline their processes."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data. The synthetic monitor is the best one. The best point of the new one is that there's no need for configuration. You can inject the Java script and start to change major developments in the application. This is a good approach, and we received all the data using this."
"I rate the stability of the product as ten on a scale of one to ten, indicating that it is very stable."
"It's good for root cause analysis for network problems and network link problems."
"The best features I've seen so far with DX NetOps are that it can work with large scale systems, and it has a lot of functionalities and matrices."
"I like that it provides an overall view of our network. From the topology view to every event, we can view it. We can also see the interface utilization for future capacity planning. It fits our use case and environment."
"The product features include automation through AI, allowing out-of-the-box analysis of performance data, building baseline trends, and enabling configuration of dynamic thresholds relative to collected data."
"It is straightforward to configure, and you can quickly gather data from your infrastructure."
"The AI is the best feature in this solution."
"The solution is stable."
 

Cons

"The one piece that I would love to see is a general-purpose, configurable agent which would be a framework that you can deploy on anything, whether it be Java or anything else. It would allow you to easily deploy it on a platform that they support."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"The solution should improve predicting events and flaws in service. It also needs to improve integration with other systems."
"The solution is a little obsolete."
"In our company, we faced some issues with the solution’s application endpoint, IP, and the physical location of the transactions."
"I think the ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"The solution is overly complex."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities. The data collection server called the ISM doesn't really have the HA functionality or workload balancing. It was missing from the previous product as well. It's missing redundancy."
"The hardware requirements can be improved."
"One improvement that could make the product better is to streamline its modules into a more cohesive solution."
"It would be better if they had an NFA network analysis feature. We appreciate features like extended network security for bucket flows, but it would be better to have some IDs, IPS functionalities, DDoS, or something like that."
"It would be useful to have more AI features."
"Lacks dashboards and better integration with other solutions."
"The licensing cost of DX NetOps is expensive, not very affordable, and on the top of the price range in the market."
"Technical support needs to be better. They need to be more knowledgeable and responsive."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is moderately expensive."
"The cost depends on the usage."
"Use conservative figures. In terms of hardware, monitored servers and also effort. The product is not cheap. But as with other products, you get what you pay for."
"They have changed the licensing fees."
"There is a big upfront cost when you buy the license, then there is annual maintenance. We look at, if I bought a license and paid for maintenance for five years, then average it out, what would be my monthly cost. We have had some of the competing tools come in around four dollars. This is coming in as a premium, which is why I don't have it deployed as I would like it. Therefore, we're in negotiations right now. If I can get it down to the four dollar range, I will triple my deployment in a year and a half."
"We did a five-year, multimillion dollar deal."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is not on the cheaper side, but its pricing is on a case by case basis. Its licensing model is simple and based on the number of devices."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
