Effective monitoring and efficient alert management streamline operations
Machine learning works based on past collected data, so we can develop a system that functions as an automated bot using this data. With the use of AI technologies such as ChatGPT and other Gen AI solutions, if we combine these with machine learning tools, it will lead to increased efficiency and reduced processing time in application systems. I work on the backend to address any issues with Moogsoft, such as URL access problems or credential bugs, ensuring everything operates smoothly. The advantage of Moogsoft is that it consolidates various alerts into one monitoring tool, which reduces time and allows for real-time and anomaly detection, while its disadvantage includes limited built-in observability and complex setup requirements. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Moogsoft a 9.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It supports efficiency and a speedy resolution of issues."
"A single pane of glass (one GUI to monitor health of the entire enterprise) is the holy grail of enterprise monitoring and management and HP Operations excellently provides that for applications, systems and networks."
"Network Node Manager is good and so is Operations Manager, although they are a bit archaic now."
"The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use."
"It minimizes the duration of outages and gives specific alerts to localize the problem, providing proactivity to prevent mission-critical problems."
"It has a flexible, enterprise-scale monitoring system."
"It is proactive in heading off failures that would be catastrophic to the business."
"It just makes it possible for the on-call tech to relax and wait for stuff to notify them of problems instead of having to, over the weekend, constantly sign in."
"The AI component allows you to check previous cases and diagnose problems easily."
"Moogsoft AIOps integrates seamlessly with 50-plus IT monitoring, automation, service management, notification, and collaboration tools. It also provides a great and easy-to-use interface for observing."
"I like the prediction features."
"The solution is very stable; you will hardly face any issues like file corruption or an alert being missed out by the system."
"I like the prediction features; it's an automatic prediction of events and writing of the rules of analysis, and with Moogsoft the correlations are done automatically."
"It is very easy and very comfortable to use, with everything available on a single screen."
"When one is wanting to look for a quick solution rather than building it, Moogsoft is easily deployable and ready to use — that's how I feel."
"One of the tangible benefits of Moogsoft AIOps is that it has reduced alert volume by 90 percent, separating the signal from the noise through mathematical analysis of all events across the entire monitoring stack and freeing up support a lot, saving resources, time, and money."
 

Cons

"The setup was more complex than it needed to be. It required modifications for our unique circumstances at the time."
"With the new Operations Manager, it’s a sexier interface but it doesn’t lend itself as much to being robust."
"The product does take considerable care and feeding especially in the later case."
"BSM/OMi is not stable. It takes time for event dashboard to refresh."
"We would like to see support for more interfaces."
"It is a bit expensive, but the benefit of this product compensates for its price."
"Customer Service: Average. I feel that HP don't always look after their clients as well as they could post-sale."
"The products are not plug and play even though HP has improved implementation over the years."
"The solution's initial setup is complex, and it should be made easier."
"I would like to see additional reports or information on the dashboard that includes metrics about CPU usage and memory."
"Moogsoft requires very specific system configurations, such as a particular Red Hat and Java version, which can be outdated and pose security risks."
"As a SaaS-based solution, Moogsoft is not mature."
"Moogsoft is dependent on external products to do orchestration and SOP-based functionality."
"Customer service and support need improvement in terms of response time."
"I would like to see Moogsoft improve on coming up with some agentic solutions for whatever they have been able to automate."
"The documentation and flexibility for generic integration could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is very good from a business impact point of view, but it's quite expensive because it's an enterprise-grade solution."
"Moogsoft's licensing is consumption-based, so the price may increase depending on the environment."
"As for pricing, Moogsoft recently updated their pricing model, and we're still evaluating it. It's an area where clarity is needed with the new alert-based pricing model."
"It's a very cost-effective and competitive product."
"When compared to other solutions, it is quite good."
