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.
KL
A user-friendly solution that is easy to install and improves visibility
I would like to see improvements made to the user guide. From my personal experience, it is helpful to see a list of steps describing what to do next in different situations. An example is what to do and what to back up in the case of certain types of failure. There are also cases where a customer can't understand specific features. Enhancements to the user guide would be helpful for this. More features for network fragmentation would be helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have found the solution to be stable."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."
"You can put all of your work on there, they'll send you an email or send you a text. That functionality as a network engineer is the one I like the most. I do like the fact that we can schedule reports. That works too because that's a lot fewer spreadsheets that I have to create."
"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."
"Device monitoring is a good tool of this solution."
"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."
"We use the solution to monitor links. It also helps us to track servers and monitor logs."
"This is a good general monitoring system that has all the features we require and they constantly update with new capabilities."
"vSTREAM gives us better visibility and reporting about our network infrastructure, allowing for cost-optimization."
"One of the valuable features is the packet decoding."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more enhancements made to the product."
"The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"For the implementation part, I am facing issues when configuring the business view."
"The data provided by the tool is not accurate."
"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence."
"The dashboard could include more features."
"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 to see improvements made to the user guide."
"Room for improvement exists in filtering in the packet decode."
"I would like for it to have a smaller footprint of the virtual appliance and better performance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price for ManageEngine OpManager is average."
"We have a standard license for ManageEngine OpManager. We purchased the license for one year and now we are upgrading it soon."
"ManageEngine OpManager is cheaper than SolarWinds."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The solution's pricing is very low compared to other products."
"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 product is not worth the money."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."
"Licensing is quite expensive."
