Jose Ramon Crespo - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Enterprise Director at Towers IT
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.

Sales manager at Prodeo Innovation
Integrates well with IBM technologies, but it's outdated and lacks essential features
Implementing synthetic monitoring for our Internet banking site has been challenging. The installation process is difficult, requiring continuous support and specialist expertise due to our limited knowledge of managing it effectively. I have concerns about the complexity of the tool and the challenges in managing it effectively. The support provided is not satisfactory, and the specialists available lack sufficient training and expertise in using the tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer service is fantastic!! They are very responsive and always follow up to ensure a solution has been provided."
"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."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"The solution is very stable, and we never had any issues with stability."

"The solution is very stable. We never had any issues with stability."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"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 integration must be improved."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The installation process is difficult, requiring continuous support and specialist expertise due to our limited knowledge of managing it effectively."
"The user interface was not good."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is very cheap."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"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."
"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."
"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"
"I would rate the pricing a nine to ten. It is very expensive."
