More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring.""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 GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there.""What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics.""Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments.""EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console.""The product is simple to use.""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."

More eG Enterprise Pros →

"The ease of setup is the most valuable aspect of this solution. It's easy to set up and run tests.""Our customer was happiest with the price of this product.""The most valuable feature is the deployment because it's very easy to deploy real flow through the network.""It empowers network administrators to access specialized and detailed views for specific tests, including video streaming and performance related to specific applications like video games."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap.""The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh.""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.""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.""Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful.""The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms.""Back-end configuration is not easy to implement.""The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."

More eG Enterprise Cons →

"You can't delete more than one thing at a time. It would be great to be able to highlight three out of five things and delete them, whether it's a test or an actual report.""Ixia has one flaw, which is that they do not print the license code on the paper licenses that are shipped to the customers.""Improvements in network performance are essential.""The customization of tests and even the results can be improved."

  • "It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
  • "They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
  • "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."
  • "We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
  • "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."
  • More eG Enterprise Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It cost us approximately 25,000 for two years. This is cheaper than ThousandEyes."
