Featured Reviews

Ahmed Salman - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Rama Subba Reddy Thavva - PeerSpot reviewer
A low-code/no-code platform with a user-friendly UI
We couldn't implement or use some of the latest functionalities, like Spark. Palantir Foundry is scalable, but it is costly compared to other cloud providers. The solution is more suitable for small and medium businesses. It might be difficult for large enterprises. I rate the solution’s scalability a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"OpsBridge has good event correlation facilities and root-cause identification algorithms."
"The correlation feature is the most used feature. It allows you to correlate events from different sources and have more meaningful events."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its grouping scripts and event focus."
"I rate OpenText Operations Bridge as a solid nine on a scale of one to ten."
"The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature."
"It is stable."
"It's a very good product overall."
"From our monitoring perspective or from a visibility perspective, HPE UCMDB is a must have. It's an amazing piece of software."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"Great features available in one tool."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."
"The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case."
"I rate Palantir Foundry a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The creation process is not as easy as expected, requiring multiple steps and can be quite complex."
"The service takes a very long time to start and it requires a lot of resources."
"pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events."
"The price is quite expensive, and because of this, we may try another solution."
"The latest versions of the service reporting dashboards need improvement, such as service modeling."
"In a future release, we would like an improved upgrade process. When you upgrade it now, it first uninstalls everything and then reinstalls all the packages, which means any customization that you've done in the directories on the surface disappears."
"The dashboards from OpenText Operations Bridge, when compared to those from Splunk, are less visually appealing."
"The initial setup of this tool is complex for people who lack experience with it."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
"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 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."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"It's expensive."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
