Flexibility and detailed performance stats enable effective network monitoring
Spectrum is very good at monitoring all network faults and configurations. It enables me to take action based on network issues. The Performance Management provides detailed network performance stats, including CPU, memory, and interface bandwidth. Additionally, Spectrum is flexible and allows me to organize and treat devices uniquely without impacting other devices.

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

"​The ability to quickly do drag and drop customized reports for dashboards.​"
"The reporting feature has allowed us to quickly share information with customers, keeping them up to date on critical devices that are being monitored."
"With this solution, we reduced about 15 performance management to only five machines."
"You can create intelligent alerts so you have enough time to replace the router or interface before it's full. The same is applicable for CBQoS channels.​"
"What is most useful is visibility."
"It's a solution which is highly recommended."
"The solution's performance itself is very good because it is a vertical database that loads very fast in comparison to other products."
"Mainly as an MSP configuration, the multi-tenant model helps us to segment the customer and users, as well as providing our operation the capability to oversee all tenants."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"I hope this quick overview of version 6.1 of eG innovation Enterprise gives a nice insight in what they offer today, visit them at https://eginnovations.com ( https://eginnovations.com/ ) to find out more."
"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."
"After trying many products with little satisfaction, we can finally say that we have found the best product on the market to monitor Citrix environments."
"Customer service and support are superb."
 

Cons

"We experience disconnections between the solutions own components."
"The dashboard features are very function rich, but the reporting feature is probably not as rich as we'd like it to be."
"This may be available by now but for server space, when it comes to the disk file system, I'd like to see that graphically represented, or the trend, rather than what I'm seeing now."
"​Global synchronization errors. Sometimes it just doesn't finish in time due to the load."
"It needs role-based administration."
"DX Performance Management should increase high availability. If one of my two data centers goes offline and the other is operational, I need a seamless transition from the primary to the secondary data center. It's crucial to maintain consistent monitoring of the devices during this transition. Therefore, I require continuous, 24/7 monitoring of my system using this tool."
"There are some issues. We started supporting UTA and began to see both major and minor problems."
"One of the greatest challenges we have encountered are the polling cycles."
"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"The integration must be improved."
"I would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"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."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We were looking at other vendors in the marketplace for NetFlow, and CA just beat everybody else in price, cost, and the size to implement. ​"
"The tool's pricing is based on the number of network devices."
"I like the licensing model because it's device-based."
"Do your homework and know how many devices you will be managing out of the gate. Be sure to project what your growth will be each year."
"They should provide more scalable licensing for the product."
"We purchase a license to use the solution every three years and we have multiple contracts. They have been increasing the price annually. We have a baseline for three years and then we need to pay the difference from the baseline, and we are in the process of negotiating a new price for all the licenses we need. The price overall is affordable."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"It is not expensive."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"The product is very cheap."
"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."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
