Great for identifying application interdependencies with helpful support but needs better visualizations
We're just trying to identify the application interdependencies, which normally reside on different servers, including web servers, database servers, enterprise service bus, et cetera, up to your presentation layer before we start moving stuff around. Normally, the reason why we use these tools is to understand what assets we have, where they're deployed, and how they enter and operate before we decide to go move something from point A to point B. The solution is going to allow me to establish a wave or migration plan where you have different waves of migration and then you actually have move groups to try and get your application moved from A to B seamlessly. A to B could be on-premise to on-premise. It could be on-premise to cloud. Et cetera. The solution can tell me what components can I deploy, for example, into a cloud space, without having to refactor my applications since that can be quite time-consuming and costly.

Has helped centrally manage users and assets while making operational tasks more efficient
The main drawback is there is less documentation available, both public documentation and partner-available documentation. The learning materials are very limited, and there is also a limitation of support SLA. It takes a huge amount of time to resolve certain issues when ManageEngine OpManager technical support gets involved. The expertise of support is limited. Reporting could be improved with more details. The content and richness can be improved on the reports. To make ManageEngine OpManager a better product, the first priority is improving the after-sales support and learning materials for local engineers and partners to enhance their capacities and expertise. The second priority is improving the product itself, including dashboards and reporting enrichment. Lastly, new feature adoption such as DLP or endpoint monitoring should be considered. Features that should be offered include DLP, Privileged User Access, data classification, and MDR. These are features that can be groomed around the MMS if properly configured.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives you full 360-degree visibility into your entire infrastructure."
"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"ExtraHop is far ahead of anything comparable in the industry."
"ExtraHop came out with the best price, and I think that it gives us a broader view of our network."
"You cannot hide from the wire; all truth lives in the packets, and ExtraHop gets them to talk!"
"We have been able to improve the mean time to resolution by several hours in some cases."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly."
"The tool is useful for SNMP monitoring."
"The solution gives pretty good network visibility. I am also impressed with it's monitoring."
"We have found the solution to be stable."
"However, once this product is tailored and organized according to their needs, then it is very stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager is the management of the virtual machine and the host machine."
"Easy and agentless to deploy, service and support is excellent."
"ManageEngine OpManager allows us to manage all our organization's firewalls, switches, and critical servers from a single console, requiring only one person to oversee all operations."
 

Cons

"The solution could get more aggressive in the discounting of the overall cost."
"The improvement that would make the most impact would be expanding on the new EXA big data back end."
"There is room for improvement in the security part. They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"We've had some struggles getting it to see everything that we want to see. Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"Additional out-of-the-box solutions and use cases would be nice."
"The solution is a bit difficult to configure. There are quite a number of configurations and plugins that you must handle early in the process."
"We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely."
"Also, every time I perform a version upgrade, something breaks."
"However, it lacks strong local support."
"With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
"There needs to be improvements to make the solution capable of supporting more devices, and it would be good to see an option for automatic deployment."
"The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."
"It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is higher than other solutions, but with such good features, I think it's worth it."
"The price of this solution for our environment is about £650,000 ($855,000 USD) for three years."
"The pricing is fair considering the value provided."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."
"The product is not worth the money."
"ManageEngine OpManager is cheaper than SolarWinds."
"Pricing for ManageEngine OpManager depends on the number of nodes you onboard and whatever pricing is reflected on the ManageEngine portal which offers discounts from ten percent to fifteen percent. It purely depends on the sales volume and the negotiation. In my organization, there are about one thousand two hundred nodes which cost around $29,000 per year. There's no additional support fee or maintenance fee from ManageEngine OpManager. Pricing for the solution is highly competitive and I would rate it five out of five. ManageEngine OpManager is one of the most competitive options out there."
"The solution's licensing costs are yearly and based on the number of applications."
"The solution is highly affordable"
"It is not really expensive; it is nominal licensing."
"We had perpetual licenses. The cost was around 36,000 for OPManager, and then you'd have the yearly maintenance fee of 2,000 or 3,000."
