ManageEngine OpManager vs Opmantek NMIS comparison

"We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product."

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

"The product itself is very good."

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

"The initial setup of OpManager is very easy and straightforward."

"Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status."

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

"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them."

"I think it compares very well to all the solutions in what it offers, and also I think compared to some of them, it is much more reliable."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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

"Some of our customers have been asking that OpManager have a feature to monitor the operating system, however, I tell them that Endpoint Central is doing that. You can buy endpoints and then OpManager, and they integrate between them, and everything is okay."

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

"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."

"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."

"For the implementation part, I am facing issues when configuring the business view; when I create the business view, I experience problems with the port interface and get confused about which interface is connected to which endpoint."

"We get a lot of false alerts."

"I would like to see more enhancements made to the product. This would be better because compared to other products, the vendor is very slow at enhancing the solution."

"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."

"The solution is highly affordable"

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

"ManageEngine OpManager is cheaper than SolarWinds."

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

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

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

"It is not really expensive; it is nominal licensing."

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