Powerful data integration, comprehensive automation, and hybrid compatibility
The data lake is a very powerful feature within OpenText Operations Bridge. It can integrate with any BI tool to collect AI data and perform a variety of functions. It offers hybrid compatibility and supports desktop application customization and cloud integration. Another essential capability is server automation, which became significantly easier with the software appliance for deployment. This solution also provides role-based access that enhances data privacy and security.

Helps to track the lifecycle of SAP products from inception to end-of-life
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. The most valuable feature for me is the tracking of configurations from development to production. It helps ensure everything is in place and makes it easy to see any changes made along the way. Additionally, having visibility into cloud system performance and capacity is crucial. It allows us to monitor usage and ensure everything is running smoothly. Another important aspect is the documentation and versioning of changes, which helps keep everything organized and easy to track.

Pros

"The data lake is a very powerful feature within OpenText Operations Bridge."
"The event correlation is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"It allows us to build dashboards for individual parts of the business. Our team members appreciate that they can just get a view of their part of the world without having to worry about anyone else's."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its grouping scripts and event focus."
"Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"I rate OpenText Operations Bridge as a solid nine on a scale of one to ten."
"The integration with the ticketing tool makes sure that there is a record for every issue."
"We haven't faced any stability issues. There hasn't been any crashes or glitches."
"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."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"It is a very complicated product. It's difficult to manage. Nowadays, products are very easy to manage, deploy, and integrate, but Operations Bridge is very complicated to manage."
"What needs improvement in Micro Focus Operations Bridge is its resource heaviness because you need many resources to deploy and support it. It's a good solution for larger organizations, but for small businesses, not so much."
"pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events."
"Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling."
"Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering."
"The setup process can get a little bit complex."
"We are waiting for quicker release cycles. Also containerized upgrade, so that you don't have to bring a system entirely down to make a minor upgrade, in fact, or a minor patch."
"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."
"The solution is indeed expensive for my company."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."
"The cost is very high."
"Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."
"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)."
"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."
"It is competitive."
"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"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."
