Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

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 auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"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 has enough features around dashboard management. It's got enough plugins to create your dashboards."
"It is truly reliable."
"The dashboards are pretty good."
"Our productivity has improved with its use."
"Grafana's full observability stack, known as LGTM, is highly valuable."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is a powerful open-source platform with robust capabilities in data visualizations, dashboard creations, and alerting."
"Compared to other packages, Grafana Enterprise Stack is user-friendly and easy to configure quickly."
 

Cons

"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"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 UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The integration must be improved."
"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."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"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."
"Integrating AI capabilities for automated self-healing and reduced manual interventions would be valuable."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is complex and not easy or simple."
"The solution should include integration with Power BI."
"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 have encountered occasional issues with false inputs or incorrect data in Grafana."
"In terms of what Grafana provides, it just provides the charting tools. Everything else is third-party."
"The tool needs to show only fewer updates."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"The product is very cheap."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"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."
"It is not expensive."
"I use the tool's free license."
