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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution worked as an umbrella for many different types of monitoring systems, offering various tools for not only application performance management models but also user experience models and monitoring business processes."
"It is stable."
"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."
"The integration with the ticketing tool makes sure that there is a record for every issue."
"The most valuable feature is that everything can be consolidated into one dashboard."
"Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its grouping scripts and event focus."
"We use the on-premises version to monitor our systems and manage emails. All our systems use Operations Bridge, especially the critical systems."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"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."
"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 most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
"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."
 

Cons

"The creation process is not as easy as expected, requiring multiple steps and can be quite complex."
"I know that in the next version, X1005, they're moving to more graphical overviews, which should help our senior managers."
"I'm not aware of areas that need improvement."
"Implementation could be improved."
"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."
"The pricing is a bit expensive for smaller companies."
"The pricing could be improved."
"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."
"The technical support from Veritas is disappointing as they take a long time, often over a month or two, to resolve issues."
"The quality of technical support has decreased over time with slower response times compared to before."
"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."
"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 solution should allow users to export data to Tableau."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"It is competitive."
"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."
"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 product has a fair price."
