Has improved monitoring efficiency and supports fast issue resolution through responsive support and reliable automation
I work with BMC TrueSight and have been using it for eight-plus years BMC TrueSight brought a positive impact and benefits to our organization. The customization part is one of the advantages of the product, along with the monitoring capabilities. Automated root cause analysis and predictive…

Helpful dashboard, and the ElasticSearch feature helps to identify problematic components
Savision continuously develops new modules to allow further integration, so the only item would continue with this effort to allow more-and-more systems to integrate into this platform. Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"It has provided more value than we expected and it does what it says it's going to do."
"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"What I like best about BMC TrueSight Operations Management is that it allows you to do granular monitoring and improves VM load."
"BMC products are very good."
"I like the event management part."
"Helix Innovation Studio is a very good feature. It allows us to develop our own enterprise applications and make them available for the customers."
"The BMC TrueSight platform wins probably 80 percent of the time if you look feature by feature."
"This helps to centralize multiple monitoring solutions and streamline integration into ITSM."
"The dashboards and views available are easy to manage and share, and provide all of the metrics required."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities. Where you can train your artificial intelligence operations to be able to memorize an issue once you encounter one scenario, so if you encounter that same problem, you can get to the root cause very quickly."
"There are some complexities with deployment that could be improved in BMC TrueSight."
"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 ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"In our company, we faced some issues with the solution’s application endpoint, IP, and the physical location of the transactions."
"Reporting would be an area for improvement in TrueSight."
"Pricing is very high."
"I would really like to see out-of-the-box support for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Other products are more expensive than BMC TrueSight."
"Though I have no clue about the tool's actual price, I know that it is astronomical."
"They have changed the licensing fees."
"It is a large, complex product. So, there is a commitment of manpower to deploy it, as it is not a cheap product."
"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."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
"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."
