With the help of the solution, we can predict and prevent failures
Currently, the most valuable thing for an individual is a mobile device. Since that is where people are currently tracking everything, we have multiple applications or apps that are for various products. I would like ITRS Geneos to develop an app, where instead of going to specific login terminals or logging into laptops or desktops to check alerts, we can have visibility in the app itself. Using the ITRS Geneos app, we could see the error message during our travels or wherever we are. I would like to see the capacity of messages for forecasting increased. Since the NSE is the number one derivative stock exchange in the work for three consecutive years, the number of messages is important. We use the capacity planner in ITRS to forecast our data needs for the next two months. The planner is important because the volume of data we produce is becoming more and more volatile compared to when we first started using ITRS Geneos in 2014.

Effective monitoring and efficient alert management streamline operations
Machine learning works based on past collected data, so we can develop a system that functions as an automated bot using this data. With the use of AI technologies such as ChatGPT and other Gen AI solutions, if we combine these with machine learning tools, it will lead to increased efficiency and reduced processing time in application systems. I work on the backend to address any issues with Moogsoft, such as URL access problems or credential bugs, ensuring everything operates smoothly. The advantage of Moogsoft is that it consolidates various alerts into one monitoring tool, which reduces time and allows for real-time and anomaly detection, while its disadvantage includes limited built-in observability and complex setup requirements. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Moogsoft a 9.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For getting out in front of a problem before it happens, it's absolutely superb."
"ITRS is significantly better than PRTG and saves us a lot of time in development."
"Once set-up, Geneos proved to be a very powerful and versatile tool to real-time monitor our IT infrastructure and - most important for us - our critical applications and business processes."
"Customer Service: Very good. Technical Support: Very good."
"Real-time monitoring of market data components on an enterprise environment is the most valuable feature of Active Console and Gateway."
"Their customer support is first rate."
"I always appreciate Geneos's stability and ease of use."
"We use Geneos to monitor our own development and production environments, and due to its automation capabilities we are able to automatically restart failed processes and alert our developers to issues in our applications and infrastructure without traditional eyes on glass monitoring."
"The solution is very stable; you will hardly face any issues like file corruption or an alert being missed out by the system."
"There are AI features in Moogsoft. Moogsoft has one wonderful feature that allows you to convert multiple alarms into situations. Generally, all other MoM tools get the alarms, and then convert it into an incident directly. There is one extra layer they have added before converting any alarm into an incident. Suppose there are multiple alarms that are somehow all related to a single source of issue. It converts all the alarms into a single situation, which then gets converted into an incident."
"I like the prediction features; it's an automatic prediction of events and writing of the rules of analysis, and with Moogsoft the correlations are done automatically."
"Moogsoft is easily deployable and ready to use."
"The solution is extremely helpful with correlating IP failures and it has a very good sort of flow chart of IP systems."
"The solution is extremely helpful with correlating IP failures and it has a very good sort of flow chart of IP systems. For example, if you see a failure in system A, you can track it down to the system causing the issue. This is a very handy feature."
"The tool's event correlation and AI are its strongest parts."
"The integration with Event Management works quite well."
 

Cons

"I would like ITRS Geneos to develop an app, where instead of going to specific login terminals or logging into laptops or desktops to check alerts, we can have visibility in the app itself."
"Not a ten because when the Gateway was very overloaded it was very hard to monitor the alerts, especially for the product services."
"Some aspects of dashboarding are very proprietary and it makes it difficult, at times, to replicate your work easily."
"Its web monitoring capability is very hard to use especially if there is authentication involved."
"The main feature that needs work is the Dashboard designer."
"I would rate technical support 7/10. It's self-explaining and the support is limited."
"The main feature that needs work is the Dashboard designer. Currently we have to export metrics data in real-time into some other visualization tools in order to get better picture and have a bit more functional dashboard."
"The ITA, the post-incident analytics, could be improved."
"The product roadmap doesn't align with our roadmap."
"I would like to see more integrations. It is rather difficult to install the enterprise systems with the agents."
"On a scale from one to ten, with one being worst and ten being best, I would rate Moogsoft a little lower than I expected when we originally adopted the product."
"Moogsoft is dependent on external products to do orchestration and SOP-based functionality."
"I would like to see how Moogsoft integrates with the multi-cloud and brings out a single pane of glass, to see everything on one screen."
"The documentation and flexibility for generic integration could be improved."
"Integration support needs to be scaled up at a much higher pace — the integration with other tools."
"It is taking a long time to set it up and could do more to roll out quickly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ITRS Geneos is not a cheap tool. It's a moderate price for the banking industry. The reason we are not able to add the ITRS monitoring tool for the non-banking industries, and non-finance industries, is that the pricing is too high."
"The organization is not just purchasing a license for the product, but also managing services and professional services from ITRS. Another factor is if the implementation is going to be in production, non-production, or both."
"Pricing and licensing is based on the requirements."
"The licensing cost may seem expensive upfront. However, the service is outstanding, the tool does things that no other tools can do, and the customizability more than makes up for the cost of licensing."
"I can say it's not that cheap because the licensing is a little bit costly"
"The pricing is fairly market-related. They have been very lenient because we have been working with them for so long. An example is that we're currently migrating some of our services to AWS, and they've given us a grace period for some of the things to help with the migration and not to grow additional costs while we are migrating, but it's still on par with the market."
"Based on feedback from colleagues and friends working in the financial sector, Geneos is relatively costly. Many companies have been switching from Geneos to Dynatrace, Sysdig, or other monitoring tools in the past two years because of the price."
"Given our spend and the amount of service we have in it, the pricing is quite reasonable."
"As for pricing, Moogsoft recently updated their pricing model, and we're still evaluating it. It's an area where clarity is needed with the new alert-based pricing model."
"The solution is very good from a business impact point of view, but it's quite expensive because it's an enterprise-grade solution."
"When compared to other solutions, it is quite good."
"It's a very cost-effective and competitive product."
"Moogsoft's licensing is consumption-based, so the price may increase depending on the environment."
