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.

Integrating third-party tools for effective data management and reporting
There are challenges with the data collector options in Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics. When I upgrade, the data collector tends to stop working, requiring me to open a case with Veritas. It takes them a long time, usually over a month, to resolve the issue, which is a pain point. I believe improving this aspect would enhance the user experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ability to automate a lot of the repetitive tasks so that many human tasks are taken over by Bots is the most valuable feature in HPE Operations Bridge, especially because in today's world we are under constant pressure to reduce IT resources and the more we can automate, the better it is."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's not complex at all."
"Compared to other products on the market today, I think it's the best in terms of architecture and capabilities."
"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."
"As a total offering, Ops Bridge is a strong offering in the market."
"It has greatly reduced the number and duration of outages as support teams are notified immediately when something goes wrong or even before something breaks."
"Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"The biggest strength of the Operations Bridge is the consolidation of events from various sources."
"Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics is technically much simpler than many backups, which provides a competitive advantage."
"It's helpful because I can have full visibility of my IT environment."
"The valuable features include getting an overview of the backup status and gaining an understanding of my backup environment."
"The most valuable aspects of Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics are its reporting capabilities and the ability to integrate with third-party tools, such as an ITSM system, for automated checks on live backup statuses."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"My experience with the technical support by Veritas is pretty good."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
 

Cons

"At times, there are performance and configuration issues."
"The predictive analytics feature is very close to being integrated, but it is not fully integrated at this time."
"The event correlation is not there and it is a complex tool."
"There are a couple of areas of improvement: Performance needs to increase; and Better correlation from the box rules."
"The advancement of this solution seems to have stalled."
"I would evaluate them as weak, unfortunately. They're barely bearable in the quality of the guys that support us."
"The pricing could be improved."
"With support, you have to apply some changes which require a restart. That is in fact unacceptable."
"The technical support from Veritas is disappointing as they take a long time, often over a month or two, to resolve issues."
"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."
"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."
"The documentation could be better; this should be improved."
"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 process should be made easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."
"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."
"It is competitive."
"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)."
"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"The cost is very high."
"The product has a fair price."
