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.
Jeff Cronstrom - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly stable solution that can be used to monitor system availability
The most valuable feature of Opsview is the ability to clone the services when you're monitoring something out of the test setup. You can clone that service, and it allows you to add new services quickly. You can bring up new servers, and you can easily add them. Also, there's an API to be able to add services as well. We don't use the API. We mostly use the cloning function because it stores everything in a back-end database. The underlying monitoring platform for our version is Nagios. That's where we upgraded from Nagios to Opsview.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ease of use and comprehensive integration are the most valuable features"
"The solution is scalable."
"The setup was easy."
"ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager is the management of the virtual machine and the host machine."
"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."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"What was very compelling about OpsView was that we could dial out the noise and have meaningful and actionable alerts."
"We use this solution for internal monitoring our own cloud platform because we are a public cloud provider. We also use it for monitoring purposes on behalf of our clients."
"It's a good solution. It covers all aspects of monitoring purposes."
"The most valuable feature of Opsview is the ability to clone the services when you're monitoring something out of the test setup."
"I am satisfied with the overall product since it works well…It is a stable solution."
 

Cons

"OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster."
"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."
"There needs to be improvements to make the solution capable of supporting more devices, and it would be good to see an option for automatic deployment."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"Real user and UI monitoring are not practical."
"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."
"The pricing could be cheaper. The initial integration does cost a bit."
"Maybe the graphical representation can be improved. It can be enhanced for better visualization. It could be a little better. And the graph center can be improved."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"In a future release, we would like to have Observ for AI. Any AI and intelligence it can add to the monitoring is obviously beneficial. We would also like to have automated callouts."
"Some of the graphics on Opsview could be improved."
"Customized reporting can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is moderate."
"It is not really expensive; it is nominal licensing."
"The price of ManageEngine OpManager is reasonable. We have an annual license and the cost comes from how many devices are being monitored. There is not anything extra cost for maintenance and support."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing is on the cheaper side."
"We have a standard license for ManageEngine OpManager. We purchased the license for one year and now we are upgrading it soon."
"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."
"We had perpetual licenses. The cost was around 36,000 for OPManager, and then you'd have the yearly maintenance fee of 2,000 or 3,000."
"It is reasonably priced."
"The solution is priced similarly to other tools offering similar features."
"I would rate pricing a seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price."
"The solution is not cheap. I think that the pricing is a little bit on the high side."
