Struggled with complex licensing and limited support but have gained unified cloud monitoring
We face certain challenges with monitoring website uptime for our business operations because we don't have that 24/7 monitoring, so that's what we are working with ManageEngine on, regarding how effectively we can use that. I may not be able to give that information on how ManageEngine Site24x7 can be improved, but I felt that the monitoring or the licensing terms, such as the advanced monitors or monitors, are not very user-friendly. I feel that because I don't know how exactly we can check what devices use which license and how we can control those things; that's not user-friendly. For example, if I have to look at what all devices are utilizing my advanced monitor license or what all devices are using my basic monitor license, then if I want to pull a report or validate them, I don't have an easy option; it's too complicated.

High performance, quick packet monitoring, and helpful support
The solution could improve by having automatic mitigation. For example, as soon as a problem occurs the solution alarms and mitigates the situation immediately. In a feature release of the solution they should add features related to automation and remediation. Automation would help increase level of security the solution provides.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Site24x7 stands out. It is truly amazing."
"One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues."
"The deployment was not a challenge for us, because we are just trying to connect to the cloud instance; it's SaaS-based, so we just had to route all our traffic to that particular device."
"The most valuable features of NIKSUN NetVCR are its performance and forensic capabilities. Additionally, the information that the solution provides is highly detailed and useful. When dealing with network traffic packets can be sent at a high speed causing some security issues, but this solution is able to rapidly monitor the packets providing security."
"The unique selling point of NIKSUN is its ability to scale and its reporting capabilities. NIKSUN captures the packets at a very high speed, from one GB to 160 Gbps also. It offers report granularity in nanoseconds."
"NIKSUN provides you with the why, what, when and where type of answers to all your network problems."
 

Cons

"The product is not difficult to use. That said, it is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"It is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"The only complaint I would state about the technical support by ManageEngine is we don't get them on call; it's only email support that we get."
"NIKSUN is a passive solution. It provides you with you data, alerts, reports and the root cause of issues, however, it requires a person to make use of this functionality."
"NIKSUN is a passive solution. It provides you with you data, alerts, reports and the root cause of issues. However, it requires a person to make use of this functionality. If an event is happening and nobody attends to it, the effects of the event could be severe."
"The solution could improve by having automatic mitigation. For example, as soon as a problem occurs the solution alarms and mitigates the situation immediately."
