ManageEngine OpManager vs NETSCOUT vSTREAM comparison

"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."

"Defining thresholds and other alerting criteria is fairly simple and would not require a lot of training. This is very useful if you are managing a large environment."

"ManageEngine OpManager positively impacts organizations by allowing users to practically manage their network, so they can understand exactly what's happening and where the problems are coming from, ensuring proactive monitoring."

"The solution gives pretty good network visibility. I am also impressed with it's monitoring."

"This is a good general monitoring system that has all the features we require and they constantly update with new capabilities."

"The solution is finely stable."

"OpManager can monitor network utilization, downtime, and services in real time."

"Desktop central products feature dashboards that are neat and offer comprehensive information."

"vSTREAM gives us better visibility and reporting about our network infrastructure, allowing for cost-optimization."

"One of the valuable features is the packet decoding."

"It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically."

"The solution's reports need to include the number of applications consumed."

"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."

"We get a lot of false alerts."

"There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop."

"The installation of ManageEngine OpManager was difficult mainly due to the business view feature, as many customers in Vietnam want the team to develop more detailed capabilities regarding the business view."

"They should add more features to URL monitoring."

"You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper."

"I would like for it to have a smaller footprint of the virtual appliance and better performance."

"I would like to see improvements made to the user guide."

"Room for improvement exists in filtering in the packet decode."

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."

"The solution's pricing is very low compared to other products."

"In terms of pricing, I would rate it a two out of five. It was expensive."

"The licensing costs depend on the number of devices and accounts that are being monitored by the solution."

"ManageEngine OpManager is cheaper than SolarWinds."

"The initial cost is low and the add-ons are reasonable."

"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."

"It is reasonably priced."

"Licensing is quite expensive."
