We performed a comparison between IBM SevOne Network Performance Management (NPM) and ManageEngine Applications Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like SevOne's network flow reporting."
"Flexible architecture: You can extend the system and its capacity by attaching another cluster pair."
"The comprehensiveness of this solution's collection of network performance and flow data is one of the basics in the field for what it does. It meets all of our needs. So for all those areas, for the most straightforward collection capabilities, right up to NetFlow and even telemetry, it meets all those demands. Not only just basic or fundamental SNMP collection capability, but the product also supports what we need for the future with telemetry streaming. So it's very comprehensive."
"I like the tool’s scalability and real-time reports. Earlier, we struggled to give real-time reports to clients. I also like the tool’s deployment model where we can deploy it either on-premises or in-house. We don’t have to carry the data all over the globe. Also, I am impressed with the tool's flow reporting and Wi-Fi."
"SevOne has rich API capabilities, giving us the flexibility to control what we collect and customize the collection, creation, and manipulation of now metrics as necessary."
"SevOne’s data collection functionality is very good. From a collection point of view, we pull SNMP data, which is simple. It is easy to manipulate the pull in the estate. It is really simple compared to some of the other products that we have used. However, for deferred data, i.e., things that we import or don't pull directly, we tend to have a preplanned integration. So, its Universal Collector is really useful."
"SevOne provides support for all universal connectors. They internally work with other data sources to get features implemented. We have an SD-WAN implementation and use other app data to monitor performance. If you pull that data into one centralized location, that is very useful for management."
"The most valuable feature as of late has been the API integration with ServiceNow."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager maintains the historical data and it's easy for us to analyze the trends and patterns and fix them accordingly."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager's installation is pretty easy."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"The initial setup was straightforward, without complexity."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us."
"What I like most about ManageEngine Applications Manager is its price point, apart from its technicalities. The solution is cheaper than its competitors. ManageEngine Applications Manager has helpful documentation that makes setting it up straightforward."
"The user management features need to be improved. It would be nice if we had more granular control, or layers of control, out of the box."
"Would benefit with the addition of AI modules for proactive data insights."
"The reporting of NMS is good, but it could be better."
"The method of searching for SIP and the way to create the groups."
"NMS has several areas for improvement. It should be more user-friendly inside of NMS for some of the functionality in there. It's been getting better the last version or two, but the there have been bugs in there whenever I've gone to new versions."
"User-friendly, multi-tenancy."
"The reports are easy to configure but they are a bit outdated in terms of appearance and visualization."
"We previously have had discussions on some reporting enhancements. So, we raised a feature request, which was delivered from SevOne."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"The problem is that implementation requires a significant amount of mapping effort."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"An area for improvement in ManageEngine Applications Manager is artificial intelligence. If AI is integrated into the solution, it'll be a piece of cake. Currently, it's all configured manually."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"Even with the top-notch dashboard, it could be made stronger in order to have an additional plug-in for analytics."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
