A good solution for network monitoring and support management, but there is no centralized database
There is no centralized database. It is an issue if you use a local database and have multiple borders. However, if you have an external database, you can keep the same old data from an old border up to 100 borders. In addition, if we want to create an ABI or use an ABI to connect data, there is no competition when we ask for support. If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service. Other competitors like Micro Focus, a network management system, have a new supportability matrix in the market every quarter.

Generates close to real-time alerts so users can resolve issues, but needs more integration and public cloud monitoring features
As Zenoss Service Dynamics is more for network-centric devices and you want to monitor, for example, a server, its services, IP addresses, and interfaces, if it's a network and you're going to monitor multiple items, you'll be charged multiple times. This is what Zenoss Service Dynamics needs to improve to make sure that customers pay just one fee to monitor the entire server. What I'd like to see in Zenoss Service Dynamics in the future is a public cloud monitoring feature, particularly for the Azure public cloud. Another additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is integration with the Azure public cloud because I know that there are some services from Azure that Zenoss Service Dynamics is currently unable to monitor.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the ease of deployment, simplicity of the end user's experience (the forms and the sheets that you use, the screens you can use to see what's going on, and overall capability), as well as the ease of integration into other solutions."
"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."
"Event management and the geographical Google API-based network topology are the most valuable features of Entuity."
"Entuity's best feature is its ability to monitor a large number of devices."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."
"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."
"We are able to receive a visualized monitoring of the network infrastructure which is very helpful."
"It is the most flexible solution of this type, but it takes time to adapt."
"It's easy to use."
"It is very cost-effective compared to the tools I worked with in the past."
"They have also accommodated many state-of-the-art technologies like Docker and ZooKeeper."
"The product offers good documentation that helps with initial training."
"With this solution, they can have one million users at the same time with no crashes."
"Its Docker Container concept is mind blowing."
"Zenoss is more complex than LogicMonitor, but scalable and hugely customizable."
 

Cons

"What might be improved for the user may be the depth of insight into the events that do happen and the ease of integration."
"A typical user might want to see even more depth to the standard reporting and ease of integration."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."
"Entuity currently has APIs, but they are not straightforward. They are not flexible if an external system wants to communicate with Entuity or create an integration that is not available out of the box. Its APIs can be flexible so that they can be utilized for external integrations that are not available out of the box."
"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution. You have to integrate it with your network, applications, and everything else. We have to collect that information from those solutions or relevant managers. Additionally, the SLA dashboard should be improved."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"There was a problem with Zenoss and storage monitoring."
"There is room for improvement with the administrative part. They introduced Control Center to manage things in Zenoss 5. The services that Zenoss provides remained the same, but the administrative part, since they introduced Docker, etc., has become a little complex"
"The inclusion of a feature to show a graphical view of the network would be a helpful improvement."
"Now it is stable, but they should design threshold parameters in percentage instead of raw values."
"There is room for improvement with the administrative part. The administrative part, since they introduced Docker, etc., has become a little complex."
"Now it is stable, but they should design threshold parameters in percentage instead of raw values."
"The AI aspect needs to improve."
"As Zenoss Service Dynamics is more for network-centric devices and you want to monitor, for example, a server, its services, IP addresses, and interfaces, if it's a network and you're going to monitor multiple items, you'll be charged multiple times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It varies and depends on the quantity. It's worth the cost."
"We have 400 licenses and we are only using 150 licenses."
"Entuity's licensing is very highly-priced."
"Entuity is not an expensive solution."
"It can be comparatively expensive but that is because it is comprehensive."
"It is very cost-effective compared to the tools I worked with in the past. The company is gaining a lot with respect to the cost factor. It provides agentless monitoring and in a very cheap way."
"There are additional costs you'll have to pay apart from the license fee for Zenoss Service Dynamics. I can't remember exactly how much my company is paying because I don't handle the finance part, but the cost is paid annually. On a scale of one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, I'm rating the solution three out of five."
"It depends on the customer, what he wants."
"The pricing depends on the environment, the number of services, and the size of the data center. It can go from $100,000 to a million dollars."
