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

"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 most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
"Absolutely choose it. It is a great company. They are always available."
"The product is simple to use."
"User session details"
"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%."
"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."
"The dashboards are pretty good."
"The ability to graph actual, live, or on-the-fly activity is valuable; it is an added value to work with Grafana Enterprise Stack and to display results or logs, which are huge in nature, in graphical characters."
"Grafana's most valuable feature is its ability to provide a graphical representation of data collected from various sources."
"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."
"Our productivity has improved with its use."
"The most valuable features for us are dashboards; we can dashboard anything that we can think of, we can dashboard and measure."
 

Cons

"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"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."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"I think the overall licensing models of eG Enterprise could be changed and adapted to a more flexible, more agile structure."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"I have encountered occasional issues with false inputs or incorrect data in Grafana."
"The layout is good, but I think it needs some enhancement based on my experience."
"Productivity has been improved with the use of Grafana Enterprise Stack, but cost savings or return on investment specifics are not clear."
"They could use more small tutorials to explain a bit about how Grafana works."
"Integrating AI capabilities for automated self-healing and reduced manual interventions would be valuable."
"In terms of what Grafana provides, it just provides the charting tools. Everything else is third-party."
"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."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is complex and not easy or simple."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"The product is very cheap."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I use the tool's free license."
