We performed a comparison between Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline and OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Event Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It offers straightforward integration."
"It has high stability."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow."
"It is a good product. It provides network visibility, which is important. Gigamon can bring some optimizations to my network. It is helpful for security inspection, and it makes my firewall work fast because my firewall doesn't have to do the inspection of the SSL connections, for example."
"The solution is straightforward to set up."
"The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the encryption feature. From a security perspective, the solution hasn't significantly strengthened our security posture. However, it has greatly improved performance by streamlining encryption processes and avoiding encryption at multiple layers. This has also simplified troubleshooting, as we can whitelist certain processes."
"I do not have to keep recordings. It is there and is proactive. It helps the operators, human editors, and me."
"The performance of it is beyond exceptional. It is probably one of the best products that I have ever worked with. It is easy to use, comprehensive, and can perform almost any task you need it to."
"OPS/REXX is valuable because it allows us almost unlimited flexibility in automating our system."
"Stability is probably the best out-of-the-box. Put it in, set it up, and you leave it alone. It works wonderfully."
"It's very secure, because it's a legacy application."
"With the automation pieces we can bring this region up or take this region down, and it allows us to always meet our time critical requirements."
"Valuable features include: SSM, which provides for orderly startup and shutdown; OPSLOG, which enables filtering by message-id, and/or jobname(s); Rules, as OPS/REXX interface streamlines deployment, interfaces easily with JES2 and z/OS."
"It alerts the operators when it is time to repair the communications and the IPLs."
"It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, while the initial setup is not overly complicated, we did encounter a few issues."
"The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools."
"They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."
"Its filtering feature needs improvement."
"The security should be improved."
"The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better. CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented."
"It’s a complex product. The initial installation is easy, but implementing various functions is a constant process."
"The reason sometimes it is not stable, we do not have the expertise to write the script."
"The GUI interface could be improved, but that is coming. They are working on that."
"Scalability is zero. It cannot be scaled because of its age."
"Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day."
"It definitely needs more web-based interface, to be more mobile-open. More APIs, more open source to it."
"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky."
