Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has provided us with a single location to host all events to be viewed/monitored by our NOC, which has greatly helped them to streamline their processes."
"It has provided more value than we expected and it does what it says it's going to do."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"Having a good monitoring implementation has made a world of difference to our operations teams."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management can be used to monitor anything on-premises, including the server, applications, log monitoring, event IT monitoring, and process monitoring."
"It is breadth. It covers so many different technologies which can roll up into a single console."
"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."
"The major advantage of the product is estate management."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
 

Cons

"I think the ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"The graphs are extremely limited. We don't have a lot of dashboard options. To make reports and dashboards more useful, we usually need to integrate some dashboard solutions."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities."
"Cost is an issue with BMC TrueSight Operations Management."
"Multi-tenancy and the scalability have been challenges along the way, as we've grown."
"The product must provide application or service monitoring features."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"The GUI could be improved."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have changed the licensing fees."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
"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."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"The price of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is very high. If there was more flexibility with the sizing of the licensing it would be helpful, especially during the pandemic. We have wanted to expend but the licensing cost is too high."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
"Pricing is very high."
"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."
