Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"I use the solution to monitor servers, databases, Windows, Linux, and web services."
"I like the event management part."
"Allows reliable access to server hardware info, uptime statuses, current patching, and much more."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"We can verify uptimes as another source of keeping devices in compliance."
"I haven't seen a use case scenario with a customer that we couldn't actually solve the problem for, so it's really good."
"Centerity is much more than a monitoring tool — it’s a unified, end-to-end, enterprise-class and multi-tenanted AIOps Platform that is purpose-built to help MSPs and data-centers deliver the highest levels of up-time and performance."
"The Centerity gives us exactly what we need from performance system monitoring."
"The machine learning feature is valuable."
 

Cons

"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"I think the solution is overly complex and requires a lot of resources."
"I definitely would like to see more improvement in the self-diagnostics. I need to know when anything is not working or collecting, long before our customer finds it."
"It's too complex, too many servers are required, there are too many different components in the solution, and a lot of agents are required."
"The stability of BMC TrueSight Operations Management needs improvement. My organization's infrastructure is vast and implemented based on BMC recommendations, but the solution needs to be optimized for large-capacity infrastructure."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size. At present, the installation packages can be quite large."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."
"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"The GUI must be improved. Graphs must be changed including high level maps"
"One of the major improvements should be it implementation as a SaaS"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost depends on the usage."
"Consider scalability very carefully: how much you want to monitor and what components are very important. Then, depending on these two things, filter out unwanted metrics or attributes. If you do a good job at filtering the data, then your licensing costs will be manageable."
"We pay license fees of between $150 and $200 per asset. There is an enterprise software license fee, and then you pay a percentage for your maintenance, and then Premier Support. For example, if you buy a two-year license for the product, then the maintenance fee is added to that for two years at X percent a year. Then there's a small fee on top of that for Premier Support..."
"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."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
"We're end-of-lifeing it now. Overall, the licensing costs of BMC are a challenge for us in that they're hard costs, whereas open-source monitoring has soft costs, where it's harder to line-item."
"The tool is moderately expensive."
"We did a five-year, multimillion dollar deal."
