Featured Reviews

Charles A - PeerSpot reviewer
Reporting features improve operational efficiency while weekend support needs enhancement
Support is moderate and needs improvement, especially during weekends when technicians perform upgrades. During weekends, they need to provide more support to ensure a smooth transition. There is a call for ManageEngine OpManager to scale better in automation and AI functionality. Although the product stability is good, support enhancement is necessary to enable better planning for upgrades and maintenance activities.

Monitors network devices, switches, and servers but the current dashboards need improvement
The only thing I can say needs improvement is in how they present the data to the end-users. End-users are looking for a dashboard with an attractive view. The current dashboards we have are sufficient for our needs, but not attractive for the business users at the upper management levels.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the network-related reporting."
"Flexibility in the two view dashboard helps viewers and admins get the information they need about the fetwork in a flash."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."
"OpManager can monitor network utilization, downtime, and services in real time."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them."
"We have visibility on all our network devices, through this tool, which gives me immediate alerts or notifications when some devices fail."
 

Cons

"There should be an option to get mobile notifications or SMS mirror notifications for critical issues. That way, when we don't have access to email, we can still receive notifications via our phones."
"The solution is a bit difficult to configure. There are quite a number of configurations and plugins that you must handle early in the process."
"The dashboard could include more features."
"The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."
"This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance."
"The pricing of the solution is high. They should work to adjust the pricing model to see if they can help reduce costs."
"With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"The only thing I can say needs improvement is in how they present the data to the end users. End users are looking for a dashboard with an attractive view. The current dashboards we have are sufficient for our needs, but not attractive for the business users at the upper management levels."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's licensing costs are yearly and based on the number of applications."
"The price for ManageEngine OpManager is average."
"Pricing for ManageEngine OpManager depends on the number of nodes you onboard and whatever pricing is reflected on the ManageEngine portal which offers discounts from ten percent to fifteen percent. It purely depends on the sales volume and the negotiation. In my organization, there are about one thousand two hundred nodes which cost around $29,000 per year. There's no additional support fee or maintenance fee from ManageEngine OpManager. Pricing for the solution is highly competitive and I would rate it five out of five. ManageEngine OpManager is one of the most competitive options out there."
"The licensing costs depend on the number of devices and accounts that are being monitored by the solution."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The price of ManageEngine OpManager is reasonable. We have an annual license and the cost comes from how many devices are being monitored. There is not anything extra cost for maintenance and support."
"It is reasonably priced."
"ManageEngine OpManager has a three-tier licensing model."
"The price is reasonable for the services and different products we have.Compared to others, it's reasonable."
