With the help of the solution, we can predict and prevent failures

Currently, the most valuable thing for an individual is a mobile device. Since that is where people are currently tracking everything, we have multiple applications or apps that are for various products. I would like ITRS Geneos to develop an app, where instead of going to specific login terminals or logging into laptops or desktops to check alerts, we can have visibility in the app itself. Using the ITRS Geneos app, we could see the error message during our travels or wherever we are. I would like to see the capacity of messages for forecasting increased. Since the NSE is the number one derivative stock exchange in the work for three consecutive years, the number of messages is important. We use the capacity planner in ITRS to forecast our data needs for the next two months. The planner is important because the volume of data we produce is becoming more and more volatile compared to when we first started using ITRS Geneos in 2014.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The machine learning feature is valuable."

"Geneos automatically sends email notifications when any batch job fails, the database is down or the website is down. It is automatically monitoring everything and reduces manual effort."

"The ability to build integrations to tools that are not monitored out of the box is the most valuable feature."

"One of the most valuable features is that it can be configured by non-developers. It doesn't require development expertise to configure it."

"In my experience, being able to monitor our databases is a valuable feature as we can create our own queries and aren't reliant on the in-built ones."

"It's also easy to implement. The implementation of Geneos is very easy and interesting. It's not complicated. It's very quick to implement. The installation is very easy. There are many topics about ITRS Geneos that explain more about the features of the function of Geneos."

"Custom script toolkits"

"The solution's log monitoring and alerting mechanisms are very user-friendly and easy to plug and play."

"Tons of default modules which are available out of the box"

More ITRS Geneos pros

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."

"t needs to have better middleware integration for things such as application and Microsft SQL servers."

"We all look at the same things - CPU, disk space, paging stats, service status with RAG status on each. That could be provided straight out, saving significant time."

"I would really like to see something from the Geneos side to set up automated reporting from ITRS. We have to send reporting to management every day. To do that we have to check the dashboard and then we have to report whether everything is fine or not. In the future, I want something, some reporting kind of feature in ITRS, where it can collect all the data and mention what is green, what is amber, what is red in a report."

"The ITA, the post-incident analytics, could be improved."

"Geneos' application monitoring could be improved a lot. Products like AppDynamics and Dynatrace provide the process thread-level monitoring, but Geneos lacks these capabilities."

"I would like ITRS Geneos to develop an app, where instead of going to specific login terminals or logging into laptops or desktops to check alerts, we can have visibility in the app itself."

"There is a part of the rules for monitoring alerts. I want to understand more about how to choose the samples and the requirements for the rules. That is the part that I want to understand better and get better training for."

"ITRS Geneos cloud monitoring is very weak and can use improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Based on feedback from colleagues and friends working in the financial sector, Geneos is relatively costly. Many companies have been switching from Geneos to Dynatrace, Sysdig, or other monitoring tools in the past two years because of the price."

"The product is priced quite high. There are pricing options for customers based on the size of the environment and plug-ins used by the monitoring system."

"The market tools are on par with this solution, but if the solution included more features, then it would be well within the range for the cost."

"The licensing cost may seem expensive upfront. However, the service is outstanding, the tool does things that no other tools can do, and the customizability more than makes up for the cost of licensing."

"Pricing and licensing is based on the requirements."

"You will get the best price if you get a single global deal."

"Pricing is the touchy subject, even here. Upper management always wants us to find a cheaper solution. But we have so much integrated with ITRS... It's expensive, but it does its job very well. And you set it and go."

"It is expensive. They have to look at the model around when we move to cloud and how that's going to work. The licensing cost does pay off because of the improvements in support to our business."

Overview

Centerity is the pioneer provider of an All-in-One, IT Monitoring and Business Service Management (BSM) platform.

Centerity’s unique, unified platform, named a Gartner Cool Vendor in ITOM, can serve the needs of both IT executives and administrators while providing a complete business intelligence layer across all IT assets via cross technical and functional domain impact and trend analysis through its Business Service Management (BSM) capabilities.
