Siddharth_Jain - PeerSpot reviewer
Filters the noise and consolidating alerts into a single situation report
Moogsoft's integration options are somewhat limited. It primarily relies on webhooks and APIs for data input, meaning external systems must push data to Moogsoft; it cannot pull data independently. If I want to connect CloudWatch or Prometheus to Moogsoft, I have to write custom code on the Prometheus side to send data through Moogsoft’s APIs or webhooks. Other monitoring tools like Splunk and Dynatrace typically have agents that reside on the system, automatically collecting and sending data. This difference can create challenges for teams needing seamless integration. Although Moogsoft has developed some plugins, such as those for Grafana and Zabbix, that are ready to use, they don’t have comprehensive support for every tool. Splunk has developed an AI assistant that can answer your queries and everything else. Moogsoft lacks that. Dynatrace has this AI component that will identify things on its own. On the other end, Moogsoft, you must set up the workflow. You have to come and set up the cookbooks. ServiceNow also has good event correlation. Splunk is fantastic with the event correlation.
SI
A suitable choice for unified and efficient infrastructure monitoring across diverse environments providing user-friendly GUI, cost-effectiveness, and versatility
We use it for this specific client, they've deployed multiple instances of it across various locations to facilitate monitoring. To effectively monitor their infrastructure, it seems necessary to implement additional monitoring solutions for all three types of devices they have Nagios Fusion…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Moogsoft helps manage alert fatigue by consolidating various alerts into a single portal instead of monitoring them across different devices, allowing team members to own alerts and monitor them efficiently, which benefits the whole team."
"The operations are familiar with how to use Moogsoft, so they are keeping it."
"The product currently seems to be a few steps ahead of the competition."
"The tool's event correlation and AI are its strongest parts."
"I find the unsupervised learning algorithms for noise reduction particularly valuable. The algorithm's ability to identify and reduce noise is a feature we initially liked. The anomaly detection feature is excellent for maintaining system uptime as it helps identify problems quickly."
"The AI component allows you to check previous cases and diagnose problems easily."
"Moogsoft's most valuable features are event management, correlation, and observability."
"Moogsoft is easily deployable and ready to use."
"It's very easy to manage and monitor it."
"Nagios Fusion version 12.8 excels in user-friendly GUI design, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment."
"Being open source lets us customize it for our monitoring needs, saving us money."
"It is easier for client installation, and the configurations are doable even for a newcomer in the field."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integrations. It is rather difficult to install the enterprise systems with the agents."
"I would like to see how Moogsoft integrates with the multi-cloud and brings out a single pane of glass, to see everything on one screen."
"Moogsoft is dependent on external products to do orchestration and SOP-based functionality."
"The product roadmap doesn't align with our roadmap."
"They are very much dependent on open-source technologies like RabbitMQ message bus. They are using open-source databases, Apache Tomcat, NGINX. If we face any issues with Apache Tomcat or the RabbitMQ message bus, then we do not get support from them. We have to troubleshoot it ourselves."
"The unsupervised learning algorithms in Moogsoft are valuable, but the learning processes, run book creation, and neural feedback areas could be improved."
"It is taking a long time to set it up and could do more to roll out quickly."
"The solution's initial setup is complex, and it should be made easier."
"In future iterations of this solution, there is a desire for more seamless integration with other monitoring software."
"Nagios Fusion should include a 'remember me' option when logging in, so we don't need to enter a username and password every time."
"Adding application performance monitoring to the product alongside infrastructure monitoring would make it a more complete and useful solution."
"There are some bugs, although not that many. There are some situations where the solution is not stable but the number of problems is not very high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When compared to other solutions, it is quite good."
"It's a very cost-effective and competitive product."
"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."
"The solution is very good from a business impact point of view, but it's quite expensive because it's an enterprise-grade solution."
"The pricing is quite reasonable, especially when compared to the broader market."
