Featured Reviews

Keerthi Kumar Sangaraju - PeerSpot reviewer
Stable, easy to set up, flexible, and has multiple functionalities, but needs to define priority levels for each incident
What's lacking in Loom Systems is the level of priority for each incident. For example, after implementation and there was a huge impact on the client, and the client comes back to you and says that there's an incident, that there needs to be an immediate resolution for it, you'll see severity one, severity two, etc., in Loom Systems, rather than priority levels. It would be better if the incidents can be defined as low priority, medium priority, or high priority.
Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can develop your own apps within Loom, and they can be configured very simply."
"The solution is absolutely scalable. If an organization needs to expand it out they definitely can."
"The RFS portion of the solution is the product's most valuable feature."
"What I like best about Loom Systems is that you can use it for infrastructure monitoring. I also like that it's a flexible solution."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"It is simple."
"The solution excels in three areas: application monitoring, server monitoring, and network performance monitoring."
"It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"Power packs."
 

Cons

"The reporting is a bit weak. They should work to improve this aspect of the product."
"What's lacking in Loom Systems is the level of priority for each incident. For example, after implementation and there was a huge impact on the client, and the client comes back to you and says that there's an incident, that there needs to be an immediate resolution for it, you'll see severity one, severity two, etc., in Loom Systems, rather than priority levels. It would be better if the incidents can be defined as low priority, medium priority, or high priority."
"The discovery and mapping still takes a lot of human intervention, it's quite resource heavy,"
"The change management within the solution needs to be improved. There needs to be more process automation."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"ScienceLogic is working towards a kind of AI, DKAIRA enablement, but I find one dependency is the frequent need to rely on professional services."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"Integrating observability and APM monitoring into the overall portfolio would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
"I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"Decide what you want to monitor and only monitor those items. Absorb other elements as you grow."
