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.

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

Pros

"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
"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."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"Their Event Management is very good."
"The solution is saving time by providing templates, reducing duplication in rule configuration, and offering efficient alert management."
"The solution is easy to use and has great orchestration and automation capabilities."
"It's easy to set up."
"The most valuable features of ServiceNow IT Operations Management are ease of use, intuitive design, and ease of management, and its based on IT practices which are good."
"It is easy to use and simple to learn."
"ServiceNow IT Operations Management is beneficial for the discovery of all CIs in our environment."
"I like the solution due to the fact that it's scalable."
 

Cons

"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 solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"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."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"The integration must be improved."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The most complaints we have received from our clients are the solution's discovery aspect. I've heard a few concerns from the customers where we have to integrate with a third-party tool to make a full-fledged discovery along with ServiceNow. ServiceNow alone does not do the total capacity of the discovery. The discovery portion of ServiceNow IT Operations Management is not in-depth as what the customers are looking for. The information that it gathers from the assets is a little more limited than what other tools provide."
"The pricing of some modules is higher because they are sold in packages. If we need something specific, we cannot take it individually."
"Enhancing automation-related solutions, such as Wi-Fi, porting, machinery, and product automation would help to achieve better operational outcomes."
"My managers would say that the price is too high. We wanted to also have the visibility version of it, but it's too expensive for us. Going for visibility would have doubled up the price."
"The solution's subscription model could be improved."
"I would like more manual issues to have automated report-facing options."
"Even though they call it low code there are a lot of customizations needed, especially from an ITOM standpoint."
"An area for improvement for ServiceNow IT Operations Management is making service mapping and discovery easier for non-IP devices."
 

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."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"The product is very cheap."
"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."
"The solution is costly compared to the products offered by its competitors."
"The solution offers yearly licenses and a subscription model for add-on features."
"The price of ServiceNow IT Operations Management is expensive."
"There are additional costs, you have to pay more for everything."
"It is expensive. It is around 10 Euros per server per month."
"It has different subscription models."
"The pricing is high and may be excluding the small to medium-sized enterprise businesses."
"While not entirely sure, I believe the solution costs at least a million dollars annually."
