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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It delivers a huge amount of value and most people don't understand that."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"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."
"We were able to stabilize our backend and middle systems."
"After trying many products with little satisfaction, we can finally say that we have found the best product on the market to monitor Citrix environments."
"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."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"The live packet capture feature enables quicker troubleshooting and better network monitoring."
"Network quality monitoring of multicast TV channels and other network monitorings."
 

Cons

"I think the overall licensing models of eG Enterprise could be changed and adapted to a more flexible, more agile structure."
"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."
"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."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"The web interface is ok, but I would like to see if it was possible to group jobs better and to create our own dashboards."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"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."
"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."
"It is not expensive."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
