Find out in this report how the two Cloud Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use the on-premises version to monitor our systems and manage emails. All our systems use Operations Bridge, especially the critical systems."
"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 feature is its ability to integrate with everything."
"The most valuable feature is that everything can be consolidated into one dashboard."
"The Performance Manager provides great insight into our systems' performance."
"The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature."
"OpsBridge has good event correlation facilities and root-cause identification algorithms."
"I've found the solution to be very scalable."
"The sum solution, NTA, and DPA."
"I have found the most valuable feature is application performance management."
"Some of the most valuable features of SolarWinds are the topology discovery and network performance analysis."
"Technical support is always live and they're supportive."
"The reporting of the solution is very good."
"The product has a great dashboard."
"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 pricing could be improved."
"The latest versions of the service reporting dashboards need improvement, such as service modeling."
"Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling."
"Implementation could be improved."
"I know that in the next version, X1005, they're moving to more graphical overviews, which should help our senior managers."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"Installing and upgrading the HPOM and Operations Agent software is not always easy and the process can be quite fragile. Once it is running, it is very quick and stable, but an upgrade can quite easily break something or terminate unexpectedly."
"The solution should be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see more integration with other tools that are available on the market."
"In terms of the technology, I think they need to put some more advanced troubleshooting into SolarWinds, in terms of AI capabilities. That's the next generation, especially in the cases of APIs which have already adopted AI capabilities into their products."
"AppOptics would benefit from having a much more centralized view."
"The integration with Unix services should be a bit more straightforward."
"The implementation needs improvement. It needs to get modernized with the newer cloud scenario in both public and private deployment models."
