Room For Improvement

Cisco Intersight requires enhanced migration, third-party integrations, hybrid cloud management, usability, AI integration, and simplified configuration processes.
Moogsoft users want better API integration, predictive analytics, dashboards, multi-cloud support, and enhanced AI-driven IT operations features.
For how Cisco Intersight can be improved, I focus on two points: visual policies, which I believe is the most important improvement, and the possibility to work with local labs in a local infrastructure.
Consultant at SOSNET
There is a significant issue regarding migration from UCS Manager into Intersight without formatting the Fabric Interconnects (FI), which is problematic in a production environment.
System Presale at Bezeq
It would be great to have a chat session mode AI so that when I am on standby and encountering issues, I could engage with it, much like ChatGPT.
Systems Engineer at FNB South Africa
Introducing machine learning and AI features would enhance Moogsoft, streamlining IT operations, incident detection, and response management.
L1 Analyst at HCLTech
I would like to see Moogsoft improve on coming up with some agentic solutions for whatever they have been able to automate.
CTO at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

Cisco Intersight offers competitive pricing with flexible licensing and justified costs for its features, despite being higher than competitors.
Moogsoft's AI ops solution is affordable and flexible, offering competitive pricing with various licensing options compared to competitors.
The pricing is fair and reasonable, particularly for enterprises.
Systems Engineer at FNB South Africa
Cisco Intersight's license cost is very high compared to AWS and Azure solutions, which have lower initiation costs.
Technology Architect at University of Helsinki
The pricing is solid for what we get.
Chief Technology Officer & Co-Founder at a computer software company with 1-10 employees
If you compare Moogsoft's pricing with some of the other combined solutions, they are not very cheap, but I don't think they are at the top end of the market either.
CTO at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
 

Valuable Features

Cisco Intersight offers integration, automation, visibility, and management, enhancing efficiency in complex multi-technology environments with tools support.
Moogsoft enhances IT operations using AI for noise reduction, event correlation, and improved incident response with collaborative alert management.
This solution has provided time savings and required fewer people to operate this tool, rather than direct cost savings.
Sr. Network Engineer at Saudi Business Machines - SBM
It provides visibility into other products and storage, and is beneficial for environments where Cisco and other vendors coexist, allowing full visibility of the entire infrastructure.
System Presale at Bezeq
It also provides predictive analysis, predicting data leaks and making it easy to scale up servers remotely without requiring physical interference.
Technology Architect at University of Helsinki
Moogsoft offers various benefits, including incident response, reduced noise alert fatigue, increased availability and uptime, helping companies gain a better understanding of their IT environment, proactively addressing issues, and improving services.

Technical Marketing Engineer Hybrid Cloud Infrastructures at NetApp
Centralized policies have simplified hybrid operations and now support automated workflows
The challenge could be if there are any bugs. Most of the time, you may feel that the TCAM resources are getting full on the Nexus just because of some bug or the configuration is not supported. Or sometimes, if there are any vulnerabilities happening on the current running firmware, those are challenges we have. And if you talk about from the compute side, there were initial bugs such as a CPU throttle issue. Because of that, the chassis was not running in an optimum way. You may see performance issues during that time. For that, Cisco released a patch, and it got fixed. I think Cisco Intersight should allow more automation capabilities. It should be more open, and it should provide more automation capabilities. I think there is also a scope of making it a little bit simpler because a lot of policy and config sometimes becomes confusing for the user because it has a lot of config. Maybe they can do a little bit of simplification with Cisco Intersight.

Effective monitoring and efficient alert management streamline operations
Machine learning works based on past collected data, so we can develop a system that functions as an automated bot using this data. With the use of AI technologies such as ChatGPT and other Gen AI solutions, if we combine these with machine learning tools, it will lead to increased efficiency and reduced processing time in application systems. I work on the backend to address any issues with Moogsoft, such as URL access problems or credential bugs, ensuring everything operates smoothly. The advantage of Moogsoft is that it consolidates various alerts into one monitoring tool, which reduces time and allows for real-time and anomaly detection, while its disadvantage includes limited built-in observability and complex setup requirements. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Moogsoft a 9.
