Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"The solution is stable due to its Cloud-based nature, which eliminates downtime or crashing issues."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It's easy to use."
"We are able to do problem determination on runaway processes."
"SCOM's most valuable features are the network path feature, reporting, and integration with business intelligence."
"We have found the scalability capabilities to be okay."
"Setting up SCOM is straightforward and takes about an hour as long as you have all your firewalls and DNS settings in place."
"This solution saves us a lot of work because it reduces the effort that is required in order to start monitoring."
"SCOM integrates several systems and offers correlation features, like setting up everything around Active Directory or DNS."
"The monitoring features are the most valuable. We have seen a major benefit from that so far."
 

Cons

"Before October 2024, there was room for improvement in the UI to make it more user-friendly. The Client Insight page on Juniper Mist Premium Analytics could be made simpler."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The interface is a little bit cumbersome and certain actions could be simplified."
"Non Windows monitoring is fairly weak. Network device monitoring is not reliable."
"Application monitoring must be improved."
"In terms of features that could be improved, I would say the agent integration into the operating system. We are having difficulties integrating Linux into some of the networking devices."
"System Center just provided upgrade and update features for Windows clients, and Windows systems, and did not support Linux, Android, or iOS, and other operating systems. They need to provide better integration with other operating systems if they don't already."
"Of course, price is always an issue with Microsoft and could be improved."
"It'll help if they can provide real-time or closer to real-time monitoring."
"SCOM is likely to be phased out in favor of more compatible tools like Icinga for application monitoring or when moving to cloud solutions like CloudWatch and Azure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"SCOM's pricing is average."
"Two customers bought the enterprise agreement with Microsoft and paid for Software Assurance. But few customers don't buy it for Software Assurance. They just buy it and deploy it, and they think that we will be using it for the next five years."
"It is the cheapest product available in the market."
"We have an enterprise agreement that includes this product as part of it."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is paid annually."
"SCOM is part of the System Center suite and I am satisfied with the pricing."
"It is more expensive than the competition."
"The pricing is good, and it's part of their system center suite."
