Unified monitoring has improved event handling but needs stronger AI automation and modern dashboards
OpenText AI Operations Management could benefit from a fully integrated AI system, which we call AIOps. A fully integrated AI operations system would be valuable in the future. Additionally, the UI experience could be more comfortable. We are not using predictive features in OpenText AI Operations Management such as anomaly detection. In the future, we may be able to operate with our customer, but we need to decide this collectively. You need to see the big picture and understand what the customer's pain points are to find the right tuning. Normally, predictive features can be more useful, but this is an end-to-end solution that needs to be customized. You need to understand the exact customer needs. The predictive analytics feature is very close to being integrated, but it is not fully integrated at this time.

Extensive analytics capabilities enable comprehensive performance measurement for diverse business cycles
It's important to make SAP IT Operations Analytics tool more flexible in terms of customization because when it comes to specific business models, the requirements of the business may vary, and there's a wide range of variety between each business model. Oil and gas is different than retail, which is different than FMCG. Everything is different, and companies are trying to push toward best of breed. Much of the time, best of breed does not meet the real requirements of each department head or the business model itself, so these tools need to be more flexible. The setup process is not a big deal for us. When we need to configure something or set up something new, the new technology of low-code, no-code is very good, and we are looking forward to more improvement in this part, because sometimes you miss a list of developers and need to write code. Therefore, we need it to be more easy for normal users. It's about how much professional teamwork is needed on these tools. Much of the time, normal users know they need to develop their own dashboard or analytics for a reason, and they are facing the problem of needing to understand how to write code. Recently, lots of tools came under the title of low-code, no-code, where you just need to drag and drop some fields to get your report. This area needs to be more agile and easy for normal users. System usability should be easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find the Micro Focus Operations Bridge dashboard valuable, including its instrument analysis and anomaly control features that help indicate root causes and problems with your infrastructure."
"The data lake is a very powerful feature within OpenText Operations Bridge."
"The implementation of Operation Manager made it possible to centralize the events of several supervision tools such as SiteScope, Network Node Manager or Nagios, and all the enrichment part allowed to reduce the processing time of support tickets because all the information was already present in the alarm."
"We have a bunch of critical servers and applications, and we are able to monitor using this product to create a dashboard and have automatic alerts to notify the responsible team."
"For us, the most valuable features are the ability to identify IT issues in your estates and to be able to rectify them hopefully before they cause outages to services."
"Be patient, and take things step by step to get it going; once that takes place, it's pretty self-sufficient."
"I rate OpenText Operations Bridge as a solid nine on a scale of one to ten."
"It's very scalable and it does seem capable of accepting the volume."
"I have no complaints regarding how stable this solution is; any cloud solution is most of the time very stable, and we don't have any problems with stability."
"Operations Analytics helps you detect the forensic signal that tells you something's going to happen, so you can get proactive before an outage occurs and add memory or space before it becomes a problem in the environment for the application."
"Operations Analytics provides statistics, so it's like the dashboard in your car that tells you the temperature, RPMs, etc, and if something goes wrong in your car, a warning light comes on. So in analytics, you set thresholds for the thread count, and it sends you an email when it reaches a certain amount."
"We can integrate different environments, including development, quality, and production. You can open implementation projects, define users' roles, manage training, design, and store all project-related documentation. Before going live, there's a checklist and cutover plan. Configuration moves from development to quality, then production, to ensure everything runs smoothly. Once in production, the platform tracks system performance, open cases, maintenance, upgrades, and new features. You can monitor everything through dashboards, reports, event notifications, and support tickets, both internally and with SAP."
 

Cons

"I think it could be improved with regard to response time, and getting the proper resources."
"The installation instructions are a mess to the point where the advice given to us by other HPE people has been to not follow the instructions, but to follow the VMEs instead."
"The service takes a very long time to start and it requires a lot of resources."
"The technical support is normally very good, but occasionally patchy."
"The advancement of this solution seems to have stalled."
"The deployment of agents on new CI should be improved. There should be some kind of automation to directly deploy them from the console. It can maybe have some more AI functions because most of the other tools are going in that direction."
"The initial setup of this tool is complex for people who lack experience with it."
"I think HP gives you everything you need, but they are not agile and innovative enough."
"It would be great to have a monitoring tool that could implement conditional solutions like this. Right now, it comes up with the indicators, but it doesn't necessarily send the lower-level technician to the right spot."
"The solution works well, but we need better project planning. Accessing some features is a bit complicated, and we're waiting for improvements from SAP. It should also improve integration."
"The solution is indeed expensive for my company."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"The licensing model for Micro Focus Operations Bridge is unit-based so it can be one device or ten devices depending on your situation or model. Cost-wise, it's much more if you have more devices and features such as infrastructure monitoring, analytic dashboard, and business dashboard in your model."
"The cost is very high."
"As OpsBridge is a suite of products bundled together, you may find yourself paying for software functionality that you don't actually use, e.g. Real User Monitor (RUM)."
"Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."
"The licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."
"It is competitive."
"The license for the product ranges from 8,000 to 30,000 yearly, depending on the customer's sizing. While it may not be cheap, it is considered affordable for the value it provides."
