Monitoring has delivered proactive issue detection and improves user experience across our apps

The best features Catchpoint offers are Catchpoint Synthetics, Catchpoint API test, Catchpoint Dashboard, and Catchpoint UI. I would like to add that Catchpoint UI is very user-friendly and with a basic introduction, anyone can just get started. When we talk about Catchpoint Dashboard, this is our one-stop shop for all our monitors. It has multiple widgets that display various application performance metrics. We use this feature immensely and it is of great value to our business. When it comes to Catchpoint Synthetics, it enables us to create our synthetic monitoring using Catchpoint. Creating the Synthetics monitors is easy and requires basic knowledge of Selenium and JavaScript. It also allows us to run the test from external, which is the backbone, and internal enterprise nodes. Additionally, Catchpoint provides detailed insights of each request that is involved in the application flow, which helps us in addressing the issue at the request level. With the help of Catchpoint, we are able to address issues before our customers. Our triage time has reduced. We are able to reduce outages and unwanted user incidents. We are able to get to the root cause of the issue efficiently post-implementing Catchpoint monitoring.

A good solution for network monitoring and support management, but there is no centralized database

There is no centralized database. It is an issue if you use a local database and have multiple borders. However, if you have an external database, you can keep the same old data from an old border up to 100 borders. In addition, if we want to create an ABI or use an ABI to connect data, there is no competition when we ask for support. If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service. Other competitors like Micro Focus, a network management system, have a new supportability matrix in the market every quarter.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We really need the API monitoring, as well as client side session monitoring, the global synthetic monitoring, to track the availability of the systems from the customer side."

"The drill-down feature of this product was very good, as it allowed us to identify the exact page or area of the site that was causing our customers an issue."

"The solution offers three different ways of slicing data to look for abnormalities."

"Catchpoint has impacted my organization positively by providing a positive return on investment on proactive monitoring capabilities, adaptability, and being seen as a long-term solution regardless of changes made to the monitored environment."

"The capacity to identify those issues regionally, nationally, and globally was an unbelievable return on our investment."

"One of the features, the scatter plot, is very useful. It shows red dots wherever there are issues."

"The most valuable features of Catchpoint are basically the transaction monitors on the API and UI."

"Catchpoint has positively impacted my organization because it has been a great tool due to reduced downtime and faster incident resolution, improved user experience and retention, and cost saving through performance optimization."

More Catchpoint pros

"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."

"Entuity's best feature is its ability to monitor a large number of devices."

"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."

"We are able to receive a visualized monitoring of the network infrastructure which is very helpful."

"The most valuable feature of Entuity is network mapping and information. When clicking on a particular location it can automatically survey the connectivity diagram for us. We can arrange this icon in any kind of formats, such as ring or mesh. The networking mapping can show the components and interconnectivity with the help of IP addresses and NetFlow."

"My clients have received a good return on investment."

"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."

"I would encourage others to use Entuity, as it's powerful and user-friendly."

More Entuity pros

Cons

"We would like the script creation feature of this solution to be improved, as it currently requires a complicated manual process to update the scripts."

"Despite Catchpoint being very proactive and user-friendly, I find difficulty with the JavaScript editor."

"The only thing that occasionally bugs me about Catchpoint is some aspects of the UI."

"There are essentially a lot of quotas. Nobody wants to sit and manually create monitors for someone who uses synthetic monitoring."

"Documentation and online indexing are awful but have been improved recently."

"Catchpoint can be improved by focusing solely on network monitoring."

"A large selection of nodes are available but it is a challenge to test reliably in China and the Middle East."

"As part of the improvement, there are certain categories, like for the China market, where we face issues."

More Catchpoint cons

"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."

"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."

"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution."

"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."

"Entuity can improve the fetching of device configuration. The solution uses scripts and I could not understand them or find any recourses on the internet to learn about the language that is used in the script."

"The configuration of the logging could be improved because if someone deleted any note or inventory, or some change to the inventory, we are not able to identify which user or which administrator modifies these details."

"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution. You have to integrate it with your network, applications, and everything else. We have to collect that information from those solutions or relevant managers. Additionally, the SLA dashboard should be improved."

"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."

More Entuity cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is comparable to the last tool we were using."

"The price and licensing are very, very high. They have to come down on the pricing to match with the industry standard."

"The solution's pricing varies based on services and licensing models."

"In terms of licensing fees, I believe they were slightly higher."

"The pricing is based on consumption and works on a point scale. For example, let's say I want to look at www.google.com, and I'm going to test it to see if it's there. It will bring back all this data that tells me how long it took to connect and how long it took to get the first byte. It will list all the resources on the page, showing that they all work and there are no broken links. It brings that data back. That test has an assigned point value depending on what you decide to extract from that test. If all I do is check to see whether it's available, it might be one point. I don't know the exact point values off-hand. This is just an example."

"Entuity is not an expensive solution."

"We have 400 licenses and we are only using 150 licenses."

"It varies and depends on the quantity. It's worth the cost."

"Entuity's licensing is very highly-priced."

"It can be comparatively expensive but that is because it is comprehensive."
