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.

Comprehensive visibility satisfies needs but instant recovery is essential
I would recommend that they implement instant mass recovery because in Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics, it takes a very long time. During the last issue that occurred due to the counter-strike, we needed recovery instantly for a large number of machines, more than a thousand machines, and Cohesity was the best solution for us. Management gained more confidence that in the future, we will go with Cohesity instead of Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics. I would still recommend Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics to others. They should implement new features which other competitors are offering to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives us the ability to monitor the entire infrastructure proactively and reactively."
"It is stable."
"Purely, its flexibility is the most valuable aspect. It is hugely configurable."
"OpsBridge has good event correlation facilities and root-cause identification algorithms."
"We switched for the added features, better scalability, overall experience, and better resolution to end of life issues."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with everything."
"It's a very good product overall."
"It's highly stable; it's worked well for me for eight to ten years and I haven't had any issues with bugs or glitches."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
"The valuable features include getting an overview of the backup status and gaining an understanding of my backup environment."
"Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics is technically much simpler than many backups, which provides a competitive advantage."
"My experience with the technical support by Veritas is pretty good."
"It's helpful because I can have full visibility of my IT environment."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
 

Cons

"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."
"Implementation could be improved. We also need training and a good partner in order to install and configure it."
"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 initial setup of this tool is complex for people who lack experience with it."
"Depending on where you land, if you get stuck in generic level-two support, then it’s quite uninspiring – that’s probably the best description."
"Initial setup and deployment has been fairly complex. There are specialized skills and expertise required to run deployments."
"The technical support is normally very good, but occasionally patchy."
"It can run a little slow if not configured correctly or if a customer doesn't use it properly."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment. Veritas Resiliency Platform is not very handy for cloud-to-cloud, cross-platform replication."
"The process should be made easier. It is very complicated, and there is more with NetBackup; it is very difficult for me to oversee."
"The quality of technical support has decreased over time with slower response times compared to before."
"The solution should allow users to export data to Tableau."
"The technical support from Veritas is disappointing as they take a long time, often over a month or two, to resolve issues."
"The process should be made easier."
"During the last issue that occurred due to the counter-strike, we needed recovery instantly for a large number of machines, more than a thousand machines, and Cohesity was the best solution for us."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is competitive."
"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"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 cost is very high."
"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 licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."
"The product has a fair price."
