ManageEngine OpManager vs SolarWinds ipMonitor comparison

"Rich GUI tool to monitor infrastructure."

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

"Our customers are seeing a clear return on investment with ManageEngine OpManager, which is why they continue using it and maintain the solution for a long time."

"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."

"We monitor customer networks with it and the performance is extremely good."

"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."

"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."

"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."

"IPAM is used for IP address reservation and tracking, helping us easily identify live IP addresses."

"The initial setup is very straightforward and it is easy to add nodes."

"IPAM is used for IP address reservation and tracking, helping us easily identify live IP addresses."

"The most valuable feature is the availability of end devices."

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

"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."

"The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now."

"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."

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

"It is sometimes difficult to manage the user interface. It can get very complicated."

"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."

"We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved."

"The solution does not include enough features and has some performance issues."

"The solution does not include enough features and has some performance issues."

"The licensing cost is high compared to open source tools."

"The licensing cost is high compared to open source tools."

"The licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing is on the cheaper side."

"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."

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

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

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

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

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

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."

"The solution is a bit expensive because the annual license does not include new features that are priced as add-ons."
