I wouldn't want the interface to go towards the web because they did have a version that was inside of the TruView product. It was more web-based and, to me, the web-based applications lose the robustness of the intimacy of a true character interface. I liked that they were on that path and I hope that they stay on that path because it just looks like it's a better product. I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that. From a centralized platform, you could have multiple users using that particular product in a series of different ways. That's what I'd like to see, rather than having everybody running a standalone one on their own workstation.

End-to-end monitoring has improved user experience and now supports comprehensive observability
The most valuable features of eG Enterprise depend on the application, so that's pretty vast, but they definitely include end-to-end application and infrastructure monitoring. User satisfaction with eG Enterprise is really the key component now, so if you go to VDI or RDH, any of those platforms, you get the total end-to-end user experience because they do have endpoint monitoring now as well, and that was the feature that was lacking before.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is the best protocol analyzer I've used and I've used some from WildPackets and quite a few other places."
"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."
"The product is simple to use."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"We were able to stabilize our backend and middle systems."
"We, for example, cut the costs by using the tool, and we also reduced the number of calls, which was one of the main value-adds for our operations department, as we were able to cut service requests by 75%."
"We use it to monitor all of our Windows platforms and servers."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use, it's a simple product, and you can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"I was upset when they sold the product to NETSCOUT."
"I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"I would not buy this product again knowing what I know now. It takes too much time and it is still not where it used to be."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The integration must be improved."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"One thing that I don't like about eG is like the interface. It's not really that user-friendly to make a change, or to navigate through."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was pretty modest because you could get it in different ways. I think the six licenses, at that time, were about $1,000 each. But then again, I work for a school and educators tend to get discounts on things. So maybe it cost us about five or six hundred a copy."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"They gave us a good price, when they were found out we were looking at other products because their price was very high. We were looking at another solution, then we came back to them was because they brought the price down. We selected them for three years."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"It is not expensive."
"The product is very cheap."
