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.

Managing application health has become simpler but new monitoring features still need faster delivery
I use application discovery and dependency mapping. It helps with managing application health What I like about ManageEngine Applications Manager is the ease of use and ease of deployment. I cannot remember anything specific for future updates of the product. The new features take a lot of time…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Absolutely choose it. It is a great company. They are always available."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"We haven't really had an issue per se, but there was a time when we had some network devices that were down, and eG showed us pretty quickly that that part of the network was down."
"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"User session details"
"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."
"We were able to stabilize our backend and middle systems."
"Price is the big issue here in Pakistan and they offer a very good price."
"For a small organization, I think ManageEngine is pretty nice, I think it's enough."
"I am impressed with the tool's reporting feature which is simple."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"I found Application Manager better than other products, including Solarwinds, because there are so manys option in Application Manager that makes it unique, such as supporting all servers, networks, cloud systems etc."
"ITSM is a valuable feature, it complies with the requirements in Pakistan."
"What I like most about ManageEngine Applications Manager is its price point, apart from its technicalities. The solution is cheaper than its competitors. ManageEngine Applications Manager has helpful documentation that makes setting it up straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"I would not buy this product again knowing what I know now. It takes too much time and it is still not where it used to be."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"It can’t be configured to store APM Insight data for more than one month."
"I would say that the implementation of ManageEngine Applications Manager is too detailed. You need some training to effectually use it."
"The problem is that implementation requires a significant amount of mapping effort."
"One area of improvement is the dashboard should be more readable and available."
"The main issue with ManageEngine is that it only functions as a record-keeping system, it has never had an IT framework in place."
