ManageEngine OpManager vs Opmantek NMIS comparison

"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."

"I like being able to push configurations to multiple devices. If you have the same configurations for all the branches, it's easier to use ManageEngine OpManager and push configurations at once rather than individually pushing them to each device."

"Flexibility in the two view dashboard helps viewers and admins get the information they need about the fetwork in a flash."

"The dashboard, versatility and larger horizon are valuable."

"The most valuable feature is the network-related reporting."

"The uptime and monitoring are valuable to us because we need to monitor the uptime of our services, the memory, and the CPUs."

"ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring."

"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."

"The installer itself is basically something that can be used as a no-questions-asked type of installer. I can use it with automation tools like Chef and Puppet. I don't have to answer some random questions. I can worry about all that stuff later on in the configuration."

"The big thing is the event management engine, which is really, really nice to use, and it comes at a reasonable price, unlike some of the competitors like Netcool from IBM. Those kinds of tools are hugely expensive and they come as resource-heavy types of solutions. This obviously doesn't require as much hardware, but it does offer similar benefits where you can manage all the events."

"In my case, I prefer to only poll interfaces that have descriptions, and the ones that don't have descriptions, I don't really want to know about them. It does allow for all these bits and pieces and adjustments, and fine tuning to get it to a point where it works for my needs."

"It does have different modules, so you can extend the solution as you need it, or get as little as you need in the beginning, so you don't have to buy a full set of modules. You just buy what you need and expand later on."

"It allows for variable polling times of devices on the network. Because it's all in text, in general, that obviously makes it easier from the automation perspective as well, to modify configuration on the fly, using Puppet and those kind of tools."

"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 have been facing an issue since last year when a lot of our users started to work from home through their mobiles or computers. We are having trouble reaching these devices. We are now planning to publish our instance to the cloud so that we can reach these devices. Its performance should be improved in terms of the discovery of the devices. I would like to feel confident with the discovery that this solution does. For example, on my dashboard, I would like to be able to view a list of all devices seen on a specific server. At present, it is difficult to find such information. This would be an excellent feature to have."

"The licensing model is confusing."

"The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."

"If you have a ton of devices, it might slow down a bit."

"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence."

"We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation."

"ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues."

"These kinds of solutions are more node- or device-based solutions. It would be nice in the future if they could be more data-oriented, so it would be easier for me to pull different stats based on ad-hoc requirements; but in a big, centralized database where I can pull specific things, and mix and match the way I want to."

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

"As far as cost, it was around six hundred thousand rands ($40,500) for the year, for the renewals. That's the total cost for a four thousand node system including support and maintenance."

"ManageEngine OpManager has a three-tier licensing model."

"The price for ManageEngine OpManager is average."

"The pricing is moderate."

"The solution is highly affordable"

"We have a standard license for ManageEngine OpManager. We purchased the license for one year and now we are upgrading it soon."

"The solution's licensing costs are yearly and based on the number of applications."
