Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive
It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

Offers proactive issue detection through customized alerts enhances troubleshooting
We saw the benefits of BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance immediately after we deployed it. The enhanced analytics dashboard helps us prioritize troubleshooting. BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance detects potential issues and anomalies before they occur, provided we have set our thresholds. Without defined thresholds, the system may still identify problems, but we will only be alerted after the event. This proactive approach helps prevent issues rather than simply reacting to them. It provides diagnostic information to help with remediation. BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance significantly enhances our company's network stability by preventing outages. With over a hundred firewalls integrated into the system, it provides comprehensive monitoring and control, effectively minimizing potential downtime. BlueCat's solution has been instrumental in maintaining a highly reliable network environment, and its value in preventing disruptions is immeasurable.

Pros

"I would definitely give them high praise for what they do, and for being a special niche product."
"I like that the solution offers a diversity of things; it can give you resource monitoring, it can be integrated to detect an application crash, to capture syslog, things like that, and I like the diversity of the dashboard."
"My overall conclusion is that it is a valuable product for simulating Citrix logons because it does it with minimal effort and with a real user account."
"I think Goliath offers a very good tool to do simulated Citrix logons with actual user accounts and that the reports are useful to monitor and debug a session."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"In conclusion, I think Goliath Performance Monitor is a true winner."
"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance's most valuable feature is its ability to analyze integrity and perform interrogations, providing alerts based on configurable thresholds."
"Thanks to BlueCat, we have not experienced any downtime in the past two years."
"BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance provides excellent analytic capabilities for early problem detection, offering beneficial diagnostic information and actionable remediation steps."
"BlueCat's solution has been instrumental in maintaining a highly reliable network environment, and its value in preventing disruptions is immeasurable."

Cons

"The setup is a bit complex."
"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."
"Hardware requirements of the management server are kind of steep, 4cpu is quite a number."
"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"Considering that some of our junior engineers have limited coding expertise, incorporating features that assist in query construction or provide clear textual translations of code would be valuable."
"We would greatly benefit from expanded BlueCat integrations, particularly through a robust API ingestion system that allows for custom integrations with other systems. Ideally, this would include a user-friendly message queue system that facilitates communication between BlueCat and any external system via APIs."
"BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance does not support all network security devices."
