Consultant at a computer software company with 5,001-10,000 employees
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.

Efficient monitoring and alerting enhance operational insights
With Grafana Enterprise Stack, we can identify issues that New Relic cannot help with. While New Relic requires purchase and supports frontend and backend components, Grafana Enterprise Stack helps identify where issues are occurring. When we need to deep dive into issues, we use New Relic to trace transactions and determine where maximum impact occurs, whether in core size, DB side, or frontend components that slow performance. We first evaluate with Grafana Enterprise Stack, then move to New Relic if we identify performance degradation, such as DB queries taking too much time. Grafana Enterprise Stack responds to queries within 6 to 12 hours. They contact users through email immediately when available. Similarly, New Relic follows the same pattern, responding immediately when requests are raised and resolving issues promptly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"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."
"Customer service and support are superb."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"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."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"The most valuable features of Grafana for data visualization are its ability to create intuitive dashboards and its wide range of visualization options like graphs, charts, and tables."
"The tool's most valuable feature is real-time monitoring. It helps in securing the application or the node by allowing us to monitor and manage resource consumption during peak times. For instance, from 10 AM to 2 PM, we may experience high memory utilization. It helps us to solve these issues."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is a powerful open-source platform with robust capabilities in data visualizations, dashboard creations, and alerting."
"It is very easy to deploy and integrate with any application or infrastructure layer."
"Grafana's most valuable feature is its ability to provide a graphical representation of data collected from various sources."
"Grafana has enough features around dashboard management. It's got enough plugins to create your dashboards."
"The dashboards are pretty good."
"Grafana's full observability stack, known as LGTM, is highly valuable."
 

Cons

"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."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"I would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"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."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"The tool needs to show only fewer updates."
"The layout is good, but I think it needs some enhancement based on my experience."
"The connection between metrics, logs, and traces could be improved. Currently, one needs to ingest labels and timestamps for them to be connected, however, drilling down sometimes takes time."
"I find Grafana really hard to configure. It's difficult to build the dashboard, and it's non-intuitive. In my opinion, it's very difficult to work with Grafana."
"Productivity has been improved with the use of Grafana Enterprise Stack, but cost savings or return on investment specifics are not clear."
"I have encountered occasional issues with false inputs or incorrect data in Grafana."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is complex and not easy or simple."
"The connection between metrics, logs, and traces could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"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"
"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."
"It is not expensive."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"I use the tool's free license."
