We performed a comparison between ManageEngine OpManager and NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."
"The setup was easy."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"We have found the solution to be stable."
"The application monitoring is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The detections are fine when they work."
"The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager is the management of the virtual machine and the host machine."
"The ability to troubleshoot customers' connectivity has been very beneficial."
"The product is stable. I have never had any issue where we have lost an InfiniStream, or visibility from that particular InfiniStream, throughout the bank."
"The most valuable feature is utilization."
"The real-time troubleshooting and application segregation that you can do within it."
"The most valuable features are speed and cost."
"We use it for monitoring whenever we update a new circuit or site."
"It helps us get to root cause quickly. With utilization and consumption of bandwidth, we can usually see what application is taking as much as they should (or shouldn't), then account for it accordingly."
"I love the single pane of glass view. It makes it easier to not have to navigate everywhere. It allows more simplistic visibility, without having to go from tool to tool to tool, or from window to window to window."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance."
"What I'd like ManageEngine OpManager to improve on is artificial intelligence. In particular, the machine learning feature should be integrated with the sensor flow. Doing this will give leverage, especially when you look at other products such as the Cisco DNA Center. When a switch goes down, I should be able to build on the correlation of other physical devices it's connected to so that I can integrate that with my CA CMDB. The ManageEngine OpManager team needs to draw a long-term roadmap where that feature becomes an integral part of the solution because right now, machine learning in ManageEngine OpManager is a long process. The solution doesn't have MLS search and I want to see ML being developed and applied for CA CMDB to greatly reduce the burden of tying everything. For example, if I have a data center switch that goes down now, I should know what server it's connected to, and when that switch goes down at twenty-four ports, I would get twenty-four alerts for different devices plugged in. I should be able to make a correlation that the major problem lies in the switch and not with the twenty-four elements connected to that switch. That is where machine learning should come into play and the ManageEngine OpManager AI should indicate "This is where the root of your problem is." It could be difficult, but this is a feature that should be improved or added to the solution."
"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence."
"The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance."
"I would like to see more enhancements made to the product."
"The dashboard could include more features."
"Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."
"The dashboard has some limitations and should be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see an improved level of stitching between IPs."
"The monitoring and reporting tool needs improvement. Users want more information, such as the level of detail when doing a packet analysis. They want more detail to be able to isolate down to a specific point."
"Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues."
"There is a timeout feature that we have been asking for awhile."
"The stability depends on who is using the tool, because you only can get as much out of the tool as you put into it. There are a lot of patches for this particular environment, so you have to keep on them. If you lose track of them, then the product is not useful anymore."
"The technology goes end-of-life on us every year, which is why I am looking forward to vSTREAM. I don't like when devices go end-of-life on us so quickly. If we can get more of an advanced notice of when an end-of-life is brought up, because our certification process within the organization takes a while."
"We don't use the single pane of glass view, even though we own it."
"The single pane of glass feed still needs work."
