Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"TrueSight Operations Manager is a combination of different components (applications) like Presentation Server, Impact Manager, and AppVisibility Manager and IT's Data Analytics, but it provides a seamless integration and a holistic view with Application and Infrastructure Health views."
"The tailoring of the knowledge modules has been particularly useful as I can streamline the agents to only report on critical events."
"We utilize BMC TrueSight Operations Management to proactively monitor all of our physical and virtual server environments, and coupled with Entuity for TrueSight Operations Management, we can have a holistic view of our network and server environments health in a single pane of glass."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"I use the solution to monitor servers, databases, Windows, Linux, and web services."
"Automated root cause analysis and predictive capabilities are powerful features that assist in resource utilization and capacity planning."
"From the time we get the incident logged to the time we get the customer back up and running, it has improved that by 33 percent or greater."
"Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale."
"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."
"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
 

Cons

"Reporting would be an area for improvement in TrueSight... We have almost 800 customers today on TrueSight and just under 10,000 assets. We need to be able to give a customer some information. If the customer's product fails, they'll ask us, "Did it have a problem beforehand?" We have all those events and we know all the problems it had beforehand. We have to be able to give them access to that kind of reporting. That's an enhancement that we need."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size. At present, the installation packages can be quite large."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"It would be better if the initial setup and deployment were more straightforward."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities. The data collection server called the ISM doesn't really have the HA functionality or workload balancing. It was missing from the previous product as well. It's missing redundancy."
"We were somewhat limited in TrueSight due to some of the RBAC controls not quite being what we wanted as far as delegating out administrative privileges for implementation. But because we were able to turn requests around pretty well, that burden wasn't too heavy."
"Specifically around application performance monitoring, BMC is definitely not the market leader. The Dynatraces, the New Relics and the like are more of the market leaders in that space. I would like to see them grow that space a little bit more aggressively. It has not really been their bread and butter."
"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."
"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."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
"The tool is moderately expensive."
"We did a five-year, multimillion dollar deal."
"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..."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
