Infrastructure monitoring provides comprehensive and proactive alerts
One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues. For example, it can monitor my network switches. The feature includes IP SLA to assess IP-based connections like static IPs. An alert is generated if issues occur, monitored through email notifications. It can also monitor Kubernetes, containers, FTP servers, and MSP features. The self-healing automation capability is also included.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like everything about this tool. I recommend this solution to anyone looking for a standalone solution with high availability meaning that can be used depending on the customers requirements."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"The event management tool builds correlation logic and protection algorithms into a field of events that is valuable when a data center goes down."
"I like the event management part."
"Valuable features include wide support for monitoring, strong event management, service management capability, baselining (analytics) and easy to integrate other tools with it."
"The noise reduction for ticketing works much better than we have seen in a lot of other companies."
"It provides common administration, and a Single Sign-On Platform with RBAC, which eases the cross launch between multiple tools"
"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."
"Site24x7 stands out. It is truly amazing."
"One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues."
 

Cons

"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"I would really like to see out-of-the-box support for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies."
"Cost is an issue with BMC TrueSight Operations Management."
"In our company, we faced some issues with the solution’s application endpoint, IP, and the physical location of the transactions."
"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."
"Application performance management (APM) is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement. I"
"The product must provide application or service monitoring features."
"It is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"The product is not difficult to use. That said, it is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"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."
"Pricing is all volume-driven. I think we were paying between $80 and $85 per license. That's per unit, for a perpetual license. You pay it one time and then, every year, you pay 20 percent of that for annual maintenance and support. But now that we've grown, we've purchased tens of thousands of licenses and the cost per license has gone down to something like less than $30..."
"The solution is based on endpoints and knowledge models which can be costly."
"The only possible additional cost that I can mention, that you might not be aware of, is that it uses Oracle partitioning, if you use Oracle. There are Oracle partitioning fees that go with that."
"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."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
