Valuable monitoring features enhance ecommerce experience while improvement needed in region-specific insights

As part of the improvement, there are certain categories, like for the China market, where we face issues. We are currently using an external tool, Splunk, for reporting. If we could receive similar data for the China market as we do for North America and Asia Pacific, this would be helpful.

Real-time monitoring and dashboards with cost-saving licensing

SysTrack requires significant improvements. Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display. For instance, a machine's last reboot might be inaccurately shown as seven days ago instead of two days ago. Additionally, real-time data syncing issues lead to delays, requiring this to be addressed, as data might be several hours old.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"During business hours, it has worked absolutely fine without any issues."

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

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

"Catchpoint provides a great amount of information."

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

"Catchpoint helped us establish that something is in a provider network, so we could tell our customers to check their internet provider because the traffic is not getting to us. You need to be gentle when you tell them that, but the fact that we could do it was crucial."

"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."

More Catchpoint pros

"SysTrack provides unique, real-time data."

"When a user calls in and says that they are having slowness issues, this tool has the capability to show exactly where the performance issue is. The Resolve feature that they have is very good. It is one of the main features. They are doing a pretty good job with the Resolve feature in terms of showing endpoint performance on various factors."

"SysTrack gathers a lot of different metrics on every single device including performance metrics and application-related metrics such as application usage and resource utilization by applications. It collects a wide range of different metrics, and from that perspective, it's a really good tool."

"SysTrack monitors user experience and represents it in the form of a composite score. The scores are placed on a timeline, so you can see how it has gotten better or worse compared to two weeks ago. It gives you a score at the personal, unit, and organizational levels. For example, the score for my entire organization in SysTrack is 77. It's also effective for monitoring user experience and resources in a VDI environment."

"It is a stable product. I would rate its stability a nine out of ten."

"We are using the SysTrack 'Prevent' module, which shows real-time discrepancies in the infrastructure."

"The visualizer feature provides end-to-end analysis on all the machines."

"From a telemetry data standpoint, it's a perfect tool."

More SysTrack pros

Cons

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

"if we need to do performance analysis, we have to click too many times. For example, if there is an issue that is caught by Catchpoint, we need to understand what the error is and at which step it failed, or which transaction that is impacted. To drill down, we have to click too many things to get the answer."

"It would be great if Catchpoint could incorporate its alerting system instead of relying on separate tools like ServiceNow."

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

"A room for improvement in Catchpoint is that it lacks an automated page updating feature. My company receives all the alerts and notifications it needs, but the page doesn't update automatically. You need to manually refresh the page, so every five minutes you need to refresh it to see the most updated information. If there's an automated page refresh feature, that would help my company. It's a feature that Grafana has. The page auto-refreshes in Grafana, so you don't have to manually refresh the page. If that feature is implemented in Catchpoint, it'll be useful for the users. Another area for improvement in the tool is you have to do a manual task, for example, when you have a notification for a market, you get a zip code that the user could have entered, but if the zip code is incorrect, you have to manually go into Catchpoint and update that parameter, so that manual step is another area in the tool that needs improvement."

"Trending needs improvement. Currently, out-of-the-box, they provide only seven days availability. So, we have to do queries and we have to go into a separate analysis module, we have to run lot of queries to long-term trends."

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

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

More Catchpoint cons

"SysTrack requires significant improvements. Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display."

"Certain features haven't been tested sufficiently and don't work well."

"The tool needs to improve the integration with third-party providers like Cisco products."

"If they can integrate some kind of remote administration tool, like the LogMeIn tool, it would be helpful for the DDS team members, as well as for the global team members. We need not search for an additional tool for troubleshooting purposes. Currently, we are using one tool for governance and then we have SysTrack for monitoring the endpoints. There are two tools, and we are spending money on both."

"Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display."

"Lacks flexibility with regard to licensing."

"One thing from a layman's standpoint, the report should be very clear."

"The interface needs to be improved because it looks ancient. If you have been working in IT for a long time, over 20 years, you might remember products from the start of your career that look almost identical to the way SysTrack looks now. The user interface is not user-friendly. When you first see the solution, it overwhelms you with everything. It's not easy to use, and it's not that intuitive."

More SysTrack cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

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

"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."

"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 is comparable to the last tool we were using."

"It is somewhat expensive."

"Cost-wise, SysTrack has a higher rate than other products, such as Nanoheal, but the features that SysTrack has aren't there in any other product available in the market."

"If you compare cloud solutions to SysTrack, which is on-premises, then SysTrack is cheaper. If you compare the cost of SysTrack with that of other similar solutions, the cost is similar. For each master server, there's a license. In terms of end user devices, the licenses are sold in multiplications of 10. That's one upfront cost. Once you procure the license, you can use the software for as long as you like. The maintenance is sold on an annual basis. Additional costs are related to hosting and include a SQL server license and Windows server licenses."

"I would rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."

"It is on a per-device basis. It is not on a per-user basis. I was not much engaged in the licensing piece. I was only a part of the conversation about how we are going to scale up or down, but its price, for sure, is competitive."

Catchpoint

SysTrack is a digital experience monitoring solution that is designed to empower users to track every aspect of their digital workplaces. Anything and everything that might impact an end user’s experience or an organization’s business productivity can be monitored by administrators using SysTrack. This solution contains many powerful tools that are designed to give administrators the maximum amount of insight into the inner workings of and control over their digital workspaces.

SysTrack Benefits

Some of the benefits that come from using SysTrack include:

Leverage AI to aid in the processing of massive loads of data. SysTrack employs an AI algorithm that enables administrators to easily analyze 10,000 plus data points at any given time. This makes it possible for administrators to utilize and analyze their system’s data effectively without having to hire a large staff to pore over incoming data streams. Staff can now be assigned to areas of greater need, as the processing of data is partially being done by the AI algorithm.

Discover the root causes of various IT issues that arise. The AI that SysTrack uses digs down into the data streams that run through the networks they run on and mine them for information. This mining makes it possible for the AI to learn where issues arise and makes it possible for administrators to take steps to prevent such issues from arising in the future.

Identify areas where you have over- or under-provisioned resources. SysTrack’s AI provides visibility into many different areas of a user’s digital workspace. One of these areas is the provisioning of digital resources. It can make it possible for administrators to find areas where too many resources, or, alternatively, not enough, are being allocated. Administrators can ensure that resources are being appropriately used.

SysTrack Features

When users choose to employ the SysTrack solution, they gain access to many different capabilities. These features include:

Customizable dashboards. Administrators can build dashboards that are most suited to meet all of their needs. SysTrack comes equipped with tools that make it easy for administrators to create the dashboards most suited to their operational needs.

Data visualization tools. SysTrack is designed with built-in tools that allow users to represent data as more than just strings of numbers. These tools enable administrators to transform data into easy-to-understand visual representations. Massive and confusing streams of data can be made more easily accessible for those for whom strings of numbers can be hard to interpret.

Digital workplace experience monitoring tools. SysTrack’s AI algorithm gives administrators the ability to keep track of every aspect of a user’s workplace experience. This gives administrators and IT professionals insights that enable them to prevent any sort of breakdown from occurring in their digital workplace environment. Users can monitor even the most minute aspects of their networks. Nothing will take administrators or IT professionals by surprise when they are using SysTrack’s experience monitoring tools.

Custom report creation tools. SysTrack comes with tools that enable users to create reports that address the areas that most align with their business priorities. These reports make it possible for users to track and keep records of how their workspaces are running.
