Ravi Konduru - PeerSpot reviewer
VP Global at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Proactive failure testing has increased confidence and reliability across complex microservices
There are certain areas where I think Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can improve. I would certainly add features related to AI and GenAI for recommendations. While dependency identification works well seamlessly, deeper dependency intelligence is lacking. When you have deeper dependencies, reliability management can struggle with identifying those deeper dependency intelligences. Having the intelligence to deeply analyze dependencies will be very helpful. Regarding reliability scores, while those scores are good, having more actionable reliability scores is something I would recommend adding to the existing system. Initially, when I started with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform certification programs, I completed two certifications with Gremlin—one professional and another practitioner. While that certification has helped me, an easier onboarding and learning curve for bringing people into this program can be adjusted. That is one current gap I see. If you really look at the cost-benefit visibility, it is not very evident by using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform. If Gremlin Reliability Management Platform could help realize that and bring in visibility regarding the cost versus the benefit, that is the reason I provide a score less than ten. From a standpoint of simulating complex real-world failures, I believe there is still a gap concerning gap identification. Currently, Gremlin Reliability Management Platform mainly focuses on infrastructure-level failures and does not really simulate business logic failures, data corruption scenarios, or potential failures across regions. One of the key elements needing improvement with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is the limited team workflow integration I see in my organization. Collaboration and limited team workflow integration are areas I would highlight as needing improvement.

Used to monitor devices and provides the hardware alarms feature
Huawei eSight has helped me overcome many monitoring aspects of the hardware. From a single view, I can monitor all the hardware. Instead of logging on to each piece of hardware and monitoring it individually, I can monitor them from one single point. I would recommend the solution to other users because it provides a single point of view of the hardware. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Enterprise Reliability Platform has positively impacted my organization as it has significantly increased the efficiency and reliability of our systems."
"More than anything, we fix failures even before they occur, which is basically proactive risk detection and risk mitigation."
"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has positively impacted our organization by making outages less frequent and improving recovery time significantly, resulting in fewer complaints on the customer success side and overall optimization of our DevOps process."
"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is amazing with the reliability score, providing built-in Chaos Engineering experiments that you run on your service to receive a reliability score along with insights on the issues and risks present in your service that you can examine and work on."
"We are seeing a return on investment from using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform because we are getting less production issues by thirty percent, as I mentioned earlier, making it a great investment."
"Using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has raised more than fifty percent of the reliability of the infrastructure."
"Since using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we were able to reduce the incidents by six percent after conducting our limited experiments, and we were also able to increase the uptime from ninety-eight to ninety-nine, which represents a one percent increase in uptime."
"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has impacted my organization positively as it helped a lot and reduced our failures, allowing us to find critical pinpoints in our application that had existed for three to ten months and led to too many improvements, reduced downtime, and a smoother experience for our application on AWS."
"The most important features are alarm management and the visualization of the health of our network devices."
"I like the real-time location monitor or RTLS feature. It is similar to the monitoring feature in Cisco Prime."
"We have found the product to be stable and reliable."
"We can scale the solution."
"We use Huawei eSight to monitor devices like Wi-Fi controllers, LAN switches, and routers."
"Technical support is good from Huawei."
"One of the most beneficial features of Huawei eSight is its simplicity and ease of use."
"I like that it supports all our Huawei devices. Unlike other network monitoring tools that monitor Huawei devices, it provides more details when it comes to monitoring or management. We can get complete details about the devices, and management is also simple."
 

Cons

"If you really look at the cost-benefit visibility, it is not very evident by using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform."
"I rate it an eight because we are still using it on a trial and error basis, and the pricing could be optimized for better cost visibility and ROI tracking."
"I think Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved by integrating with more AWS services or GCP services."
"I think that it will be important to have resources to perform self-directed studies on Gremlin Reliability Management Platform as an improvement."
"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved as the pricing is a bit expensive and the learning curve for beginners is a bit difficult."
"When I implemented this Huawei solution, I faced some limitations in particular areas like wireless scanning."
"eSight has many features and options, but sometimes, we feel that it should be more advanced, like Cisco. It would be good if they can enable some automation part in eSight. Most of our customers want automation in their network. They don't want a dependency on everything. That's why the automation part must be improved in Huawei. It will be beneficial for customers. Cisco has different products, and there are multiple products for monitoring, automation, etc. In the software-defined network, Cisco has ACI, and VMware has NSX. Such options must be there in Huawei to move to a software-defined network. Unlike Cisco, in the case of eSight, there is only one product. I am not aware of any other product. It would be good to enhance it with at least some automation options so that we can use it effectively in the campus network or big data center environment. When I implemented this Huawei solution, I faced some limitations in particular areas like wireless scanning. This is another part that they can improve. Wireless reporting option is not as effective as other monitoring solutions. For a particular use case, if a customer is asking for some reports, sometimes they are not 100% satisfactory. The reporting structure must be improved."
"The solution needs to improve it's user interface to make it more modern and stylish. They need to design proper menu positions, features, etc. Right now the layout is complicated."
"The variety of license types should be made simpler as, at present, it is complex."
"The price could be less costly."
"It is not a very flexible product. We cannot change much from our side."
"Something that could be improved is the lack of integration with Cisco switches. In the next release, I would like to see better reporting."
"The solution and the operating system come separately. It would be easier if we did not have to deploy anything. A bundle feature would be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its pricing is better than any other Huawei product. Some products are cheaper in Huawei, and some products are cheaper in Cisco. Cisco has more benefits and options than Huawei if you consider different network environments."
"I would rate this solution a nine out of ten for pricing. The pricing depends on which features you use and can become expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."
"Pricing depends on the competition. If your competitor is like Cisco, then Huawei is much more competitive when it comes to pricing."
"The pricing for Huawei eSight is reasonable, especially with the base license and incremental licenses for additional devices. However, the variety of license types can be a bit complex. We used to sell eSight but switched to another solution, so we're not actively trading it anymore."
"The price is very expensive."
