Ready to use, with no need for customization

We currently operate in a banking domain. It helps to take daily backups of database. The BMC TrueSight helps in following the Reserve Bank guidelines and scheduling the back up as necessary. The solution creates a back-up and re-evaluates all the necessary information, alarming us in case there is a set of missing information. In case the backup fails, it also has an error handling mechanism is present, sending real-time messages and alerts in the form of emails to responsible teams. We have minimized the L1 and L2 activities, currently allowing us to only deal with L3 activities. If there are any errors in terms of backup, the incident is directly raised to Level 3. This automation has helped us save about 5 million pounds. It is also capable of no-manual intervention, where onboarding can be done without any manual assistance. The GUI offered by this solution is currently not available in the market. Whenever the details of customers are entered in the GUI, the process is carried out smoothly in the background without any issues.

Patches can be deployed easily with a single click, making deployment straightforward

More use cases can be automated. The user interface of BMC TrueSight Server Automation could benefit from enhancements, as it currently lacks refinement. However, the stability of the platform is commendable. While there are occasional fluctuations, overall, it maintains a high level of stability. In terms of automation capabilities, it performs satisfactorily. Additionally, it handles gateway activities smoothly, demonstrating its capability.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The automation helps in payment transactions through BHIM app. The BMC helps in smooth clearance of all payments without using MasterCard or Visa. The solution is ready to use, and there is no need for customization or resources. We can complete integration over cloud and on-premise, and even using mainframes. The automation are secure through BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

"We particularly like the integration functionality of this solution. This product is open API, which means that it can be integrated with any solution from any other brand."

"The product has a very good triggering mechanism."

"This solution is scalable."

"I find the provisioning to be the most valuable."

"The initial setup is easy. The deployment was done in an hour."

"We can implement compliance standards with the solution. You can also do patching so that the environment is compliant and secure from external threats and hacking. We can provision multiple systems with the help of predefined templates that the organization has forwarded us. The solution’s users can also integrate multiple products which can be either BMC or non-BMC. There are numerous possibilities that can be done with server automation"

"The best thing about TrueSight is the user interface, which is intuitive and easy to use. It supports accessibility and exporting, so we can output to the format we require. We can use TrueSight to integrate nearly any other product. I can't think of another product that can match this functionality. We also have Microsoft Orchestrator, but it can't match BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration pros

"The solution is stable."

"The ability to script and create BL packages to perform various functions. This makes automating our environment relatively easy to do."

"BMC support is great. They usually can answer any of our questions in a short amount of time and solve our most complex issues."

"Compliance is also huge... By tying it to Atrium Orchestrator, our workflow tool, we'll be able to have a closed loop where we identify a compliance issue, cut CRs, get them approved, and then be able to execute these CRs and more seamlessly fix these issues on the fly."

"You can easily get the patching link. Patches can be deployed easily with a single click, making deployment straightforward. This eliminates the need for constant monitoring. You can deploy the necessary patches with one click, ensuring everything is signed correctly, and all issues are resolved."

"BMC Bladelogic Automation can be used across many OS platforms, providing us flexibility for deployments."

"It gives us more speed to deliver services and applications, and we rely on security."

"Scalability is good."

Cons

"We are aiming for AI automation and look for support from BMC. The features are currently missing but we are hoping for some upgrade in this matter."

"It would be helpful if TrueSight could log errors in a better format. I would also like to see more connector support. Let's say I have a third-party vendor that I need to integrate with Ansible. It would be helpful if BMC announced a specific connector for that. I've encountered situations where I need to work with scripts or find another way to integrate a particular product with TrueSight Orchestration. BMC already supports many products. For example, we have a connector for Ansible, but I think it needs to be improved some."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration could improve by providing some visibility on how the workflows are progressing."

"Regarding scalability, the architecture does not allow you to add additional servers just able to use two application servers, so it's not scalable."

"The solution should move to the cloud. Every application from the BMC is on the container and moving to the cloud. There is also a number of limitations for the smart reporting feature of the TrueSight server which is not working in sync. We did not get any satisfactory reply from BMC on that note. We are not able to do the real-time sync between HSA and non-HSA service reporting tools and the actual application tools."

"The solution is not user-friendly."

"The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated. It creates a lot of problems in our environment. Most of the time I am trying to find and solve the problem."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration is difficult to understand. It's not very user-friendly."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration cons

"The architecture is big, so the initial setup is not a straightforward task."

"Resource management on the base servers is sluggish and could be improved."

"The setup of this suite is very complicated. It needs to be simplified."

"We encountered some reporting issues. Also, we needed to gather information from the backend before the product execution. The output's format is not good."

"There is no other functionality available to patch the containers that we need to include."

"More use cases can be automated. The user interface of BMC TrueSight Server Automation could benefit from enhancements, as it currently lacks refinement."

"I would like to see a better methodology for handling REST calls and integration into the APIs. They add new APIs as they add functions, but they've missed some from older components which they still haven't added in. Some of the APIs are there but the CLI calls are not there."

"I would like to see more container integration in the next release of this solution."

More BMC TrueSight Server Automation cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, it comes with the package when you buy the server automation. But it's made depending on some agreements for companies, of which I don't know the clause."

"Licensing is available in different ways and depends on data being consumed by users and nodes being operated."

"There is a huge cost saving with BMC TrueSight compared to other solutions."

"Licensing is per lot, or per agent — one agent is one license."

"Licensing is a bit pricey. Be mindful about the components that you need and buy as appropriate."

"The solution is quite expensive compared to other vendors."

"The product is expensive."

"The product's pricing depends on the number of servers."

"We're looking at less than $100,000 USD for this solution."
