Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ability to pull hosts together to show what processes are running, so it can be used for change management."
"The event management part of TrueSight Operations Management, in my experience, is probably the best in the market."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"BMC products are very good."
"It has provided more value than we expected and it does what it says it's going to do."
"It provides common administration, and a Single Sign-On Platform with RBAC, which eases the cross launch between multiple tools"
"Helix Innovation Studio is a very good feature. It allows us to develop our own enterprise applications and make them available for the customers."
"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
 

Cons

"The dashboards could be better. The graphs are extremely limited."
"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."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"Specifically around application performance monitoring, BMC is definitely not the market leader."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product."
"I think the solution is overly complex and requires a lot of resources."
"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"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 solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
"Though I have no clue about the tool's actual price, I know that it is astronomical."
"The tool is moderately expensive."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
"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."
