"Predictive analysis is a valued feature."
"It greatly assists small and medium-sized businesses in using the ITSM, alerting, and monitoring features."
"The most valuable feature of this solution in my experience, is that the available reporting is quite accurate."
"The most valuable features of OpsRamp include a single pane of glass, event correlation, personalized dashboards, and a single platform solution."
"The feature we found most valuable in OpsRamp is alert generation because whenever there is any kind of spike on any virtual machine, the solution generates alerts based on the thresholds we implemented. We have integrated our ideas and tools with OpsRamp, so alerts are generated, then we notify the customers. That's the main feature we like about OpsRamp because we don't have to monitor each resource. Instead, OpsRamp does the monitoring for us, and it generates the alerts based on the thresholds."
"We find the products seamless integration with Zendesk to be extremely valuable to our business."
"The technical support is fantastic, and they are fast to respond."
"Most features work fine."
"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection."
"Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason."
"I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client."
"What's lacking in OpsRamp is process automation, and if there is, I wish there could be more of it, other than just spikes, or it would be better if the alerts can be generated based on different matrices. That option is absent in OpsRamp at the moment, and it would be valuable if that could be provided in the solution, especially if there's any kind of security issue in the VM."
"An area of improvement would be application monitoring."
"The function to search any particular device within this solution needs to be improved. Currently, the solution develops a lag when a search, or a comparison, is being carried out."
"I would like to see two things. The first is a self-service portal for the cloud, any cloud deployments, and the second is maturity validation towards ITSM, internalizing OpsRamp TSM. As a result, instead of integrating with more mature tools similar to ServiceNow, people will use OpsRamp."
"OpsRamp cannot be scaled for big and large company deployments."
"Automation is currently quite complex and needs to be improved."
"OpsRamp could improve the critical alerts. We have been receiving some false alerts when monitoring. For example, the alert shows the site is down, but when we try to do manual access to the URL, it's accessible."
"We would like this solution to be developed into a full CMP tool, so that we are able to use a single product for all of our cloud management needs."
