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.

It's easy to setup and the plugins are easy to write. When we need to, the threshold is easy to change.

It's easy to setup and the plugins are easy to write. When we need to, the threshold is easy to change It would be nice to have a centralized client-settings management. At the moment, the client settings have to be changed individually. I've used it since 2011. The deployment of the new server…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is simple to use."

"We use it to monitor all of our Windows platforms and servers."

"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."

"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."

"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."

"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."

"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."

"Customer service is fantastic!! They are very responsive and always follow up to ensure a solution has been provided."

More eG Enterprise pros

"It's easy to setup and the plugins are easy to write."

Cons

"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."

"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."

"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."

"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."

"I think the overall licensing models of eG Enterprise could be changed and adapted to a more flexible, more agile structure."

"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."

"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."

More eG Enterprise cons

"Deploying an agent leaves much to be desired."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"

"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."

"It is not expensive."

"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."

"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."

"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."

"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."

"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."

Overview

eG Enterprise is a comprehensive performance monitoring tool that monitors applications, infrastructure, and networks. eG Enterprise offers a complete performance management solution that delivers diagnosis and automated IT auditing, and offers extensive reporting to test application latencies, storage hotspots, network failures, server incompetencies, bottlenecks, user experience (UX) concerns, and more.

eG Enterprise monitors an organization’s total IT ecosystem and applications throughout every layer and all tiers and will take a deep dive to discover where a problem began, faster than any other solution. eG Enterprise is a complete solution that thoroughly monitors the end-user relationship for just about every IT deployment available, such as cloud-based microservices applications, enterprise applications, on-premise monolithic applications, and digital workspaces.

eG Enterprise is a flexible solution and can be deployed in various circumstances, wherever the digital experience of the user needs to be managed and IT infrastructures and applications need to be monitored. eG Enterprise is effective from legacy on-premise deployments to the most cloud-centric ecosystem in the marketplace today.

eG Enterprise Features

Application Performance Monitoring (APM): The solution is able to provide monitoring to discover, diagnose, and repair application performance problems so the end user is never affected.
Infrastructure monitoring: Users have full transparency to clearly visualize what is occurring with recent deployments and immediately diagnose network, database, and server problems.
Digital workspace monitoring: Workspaces are continually monitored to maintain the highest levels of productivity at all times. Users can easily monitor disconnects, logons, slowdowns, complete sessions, and more.
Enterprise application monitoring: Applications that do not perform as expected may result in significant losses for an organization. eG Enterprise is able to monitor many of today’s popular applications, such as PeopleSoft, SAP, Sharepoint, Siebel, and Office 365. Organizations are able to quickly identify underperforming applications, discover and diagnose problems, and remediate issues to ensure that optimal levels of productivity and profitability are being maintained at all times.
Cloud Monitoring: eG Enterprise provides effective monitoring for all of an organization's cloud infrastructures, including public, hybrid and private. eG Enterprise is able to facilitate the concise mapping of the relationships between tiers and discover the reasons for performance problems immediately before they reach the end user. eG Enterprise can be deployed on premises or as a SaaS-based solution.
