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.

Proactive monitoring boosts system reliability but requires improved protocol support and script customization
Improvements can be made to OpenText Business Process Monitoring, especially since we have faced issues with protocol support and creating scripts in past implementations. Creating a proactive request requires a specific skill set, so a template for scripts that work across various protocols should be recommended. The dashboard of OpenText Business Process Monitoring is good enough, but in my operational environment, it is not sufficient. Therefore, I have had to customize everything beyond the package, utilizing Prometheus and Grafana to render more dashboards.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has raised more than fifty percent of the reliability of the infrastructure."
"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."
"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."
"More than anything, we fix failures even before they occur, which is basically proactive risk detection and risk mitigation."
"The Enterprise Reliability Platform has positively impacted my organization as it has significantly increased the efficiency and reliability of our systems."
"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 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."
"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."
"The tool team was sort of aware of those tools to deal with. And, that helped us to deliver the project on time."
"The main benefits of using OpenText Business Process Monitoring for my company include anomaly detection and proactive analysis, which enhance our monitoring capabilities."
"The stability has been very good over the years."
"Ability to monitor multiple application protocols."
"What I find most valuable is that it has synthetic monitoring that you can run from different geographies and identify, as it’s more proactive monitoring than reactive monitoring, so it'll alert customers before they find out things are not working, and proactive monitoring is very helpful to most of our customers."
"Automates processes and allows reports and statistics to improve the speed at which changes and assets are managed."
"The solution is very good at showing users ways to use a user action on a website and to see the performance."
"Product allows business analysts to create the application with very little software development time needed."
 

Cons

"If you really look at the cost-benefit visibility, it is not very evident by using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform."
"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved as the pricing is a bit expensive and the learning curve for beginners is a bit difficult."
"I think Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved by integrating with more AWS services or GCP services."
"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 that it will be important to have resources to perform self-directed studies on Gremlin Reliability Management Platform as an improvement."
"Support has experienced high turnover recently due to HP acqusition of the former Mercury Interactive product."
"Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect. Having better documentation will allow business analysts and data center personnel to rely on the Micro Focus help desk less."
"It doesn't have SNMP, the standard communication protocol for sending alerts."
"Improvements can be made to OpenText Business Process Monitoring, especially since we have faced issues with protocol support and creating scripts in past implementations."
"Customer support is pretty average and can use some improvement."
"The solution should offer better integration with other tools from a service management perspective."
"Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect."
"The product has been discontinued."
