Jose Ramon Crespo - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Abdullah Baig - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-use solution that has a good dashboard, performs well, and provides flexible pricing
Sentry was easy to learn compared to New Relic and Azure Monitor. I saw some valuable input. It took us the least amount of time to see how Sentry is valuable. It took just a few minutes. Session Replay provides a replay of the recorded errors. It is a good feature. Azure Monitor does not have this feature. The error reporting is straightforward. We can see everything that we need to see. The dashboard seems pretty fine. The product performs well. We can see the user's IP addresses.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"User session details"
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"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."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"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."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create and assign rules and give access to particular users."
"The most valuable feature we have found with Sentry is the security that it provides."
"Overall, I give Sentry a rating of 10."
"Sentry breaks everything down in real time."
"The product performs well."
"The stability is very good for Sentry and in general works well."
"The implementation is easy. After one or two days, I can learn and use it. It's not too hard."
"Sentry is a pretty stable product... Sentry's documentation is pretty straightforward and neat."
 

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."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The integration must be improved."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"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."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"We cannot restrict particular columns on particular data. It would be helpful if that feature was improved."
"To deal with its shortcomings, Sentry needs to continuously improve in areas like the user interface and documentation, apart from its other features."
"The settings for an administrator are complex."
"Lacks user metric tracking and the ability to create more dashboards."
"I would like to have alert policies and alert conditions enhanced in the next release."
"I would like to see a role registration feature added."
"It should be easier to integrate Sentry with other tools, and the end-to-end tracing capabilities could be improved."
"The price could be lowered."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"It is not expensive."
"The product is very cheap."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"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'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"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 can adjust the price a little bit based on our needs."
"We are currently paying through Cloudera for the Sentry service."
"Currently, we are in the production phase of our project and we are on free plans to use Sentry. Once we go live we will have to be on a subscription-based plan."
"I am currently using a self-hosted open version."
