Executive SummaryUpdated on Jan 2, 2025

Opsgenie and Splunk ITSI are leaders in the IT service management category. Splunk ITSI likely has the upper hand due to its advanced analytics capabilities and broader data handling features.

Features: Opsgenie provides comprehensive alerting and seamless integration with Atlassian products, highlighting flexible alert notifications and ease of use. It offers critical incident management functionality tailored for smaller teams. Splunk ITSI excels with its advanced analytics, machine learning integrations, and extensive data visualization tools like glass tables and service analyzers, making it suitable for enterprises requiring deep data insights.

Room for Improvement: Opsgenie users seek better cloud integration, enhanced automation features, and a more robust API, alongside improved reporting and Atlassian product integration. Splunk ITSI could improve its pricing, ease of dashboard setup, and predictive analytics capabilities. Users also desire more out-of-the-box solutions to simplify implementation and reduce alert noise.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Opsgenie offers easy cloud-based deployment, which aligns well with public cloud environments, and generally positive customer service feedback with some variance in localized support. Splunk ITSI supports hybrid and on-premises deployments, which supports complex infrastructures but has received mixed reviews about its customer service, particularly delays in certain regions.

Pricing and ROI: Opsgenie's tiered pricing is attractive for small to medium businesses, with added value seen in integrations with tools like Jira Service Management, contributing to reduced costs and improved efficiency. Splunk ITSI, though considered premium-priced, justifies its cost for enterprises needing robust data analytics. Users report an impressive ROI due to its comprehensive features, which provide long-term strategic value.

The price is competitive and it's easy to use and configure

We are using the cloud version of Atlassian products now, but I think the Data Center version we used earlier was much more user-friendly. There are lots of limitations in the cloud version The add-on or features that work with the Data Center versions are not compatible with the cloud version. Opsgenie fits on top of the base application, which is Jira Service Management. Jira Service Management is an investigation. Previously, we had Jira Service Management and PagerDuty running on top of that. Now, Opsgenie is bundled as a part of JSM. However, when we switched to the cloud version, many of the features have become a bit complicated compared to the Data Center version I had used for years. It might be due to an architectural change or some other reason: Also, it would be nice if Opsgenie had the ability to import rosters from other sources like you can do in PagerDuty.

It speeds up incident response by automating alerts and ticket creation

When configuring a dashboard, we can write search criteria. Based on the search criteria, the dashboard shows all the alerts, including the alert time, creation time, and a summary description of the alert. When you add an extra column, such as the user that triggered the alert, the next time he refreshes the dashboard, he wants to know that the alert is acknowledged. We want to improve that comment feature. In the Service Analyzer, we monitor the network infrastructure services and have a KPI for each service. When the value exceeds the threshold value, we can add the colors. For example, we can set it to green when the threshold value is within the limit. If it is red, then the value has passed the threshold. We want more colors in the service analyzer to display all these features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Opsgenie has been most valuable in managing our incident response. We use Opsgenie for on-call management of AWS services, and its integration with CloudWatch has been particularly beneficial. Opsgenie alerts us to anomalies in cloud services, not just incidents but also performance issues like delayed response times or execution errors. So, we will quickly know about the issue, and it allows us to take swift action. It has been very helpful to us."

"I am a Jira admin. The best feature for me is that I do not need to write different code when I integrate with multiple applications. OpsGenie made it easier for me. All I need to do is create a field and give a value. I need to set the parameters and give a value. I can write only one script so that it directly interacts with my Jira and feeds all the data."

"OpsGenie has many features, such as email notification, SMS notification, roster, tracking of the tickets. Automation, like scripting, is also possible. There are also features for maintaining the history of the tickets and all the solutions related to how it was resolved previously. If there are similar kinds of tickets, we can look at how a person is working on that ticket. If he doesn't have any idea, you can look back at a similar ticket and solve it as the previous person did it."

"Opsgenie is easy to configure and use."

"The rotation and scheduling are beneficial."

"One of the features my team found valuable in Opsgenie is the alert. There's also the option to install an app on your phone, so even if you don't have any mobile reception, but you're still connected to WiFi, you still get the alerts via the app, not just via phone call or SMS. The combination of both options was very useful because sometimes you have data and you don't have coverage by mobile, or vice versa. To have both options in terms of receiving alerts was very useful. Another valuable feature of Opsgenie is the on-call rotation with alerts. I belonged to a small team of three, then the team expanded into four members where everyone was on a weekly on-call basis, with each team member having a week of being on-call. At first, it was a bi-weekly on-call rotation, then it became once every three weeks, and after that, it was once every four weeks, so the on-call rotation with an alert feature was useful. My previous company had two separate environments, on the cloud and on-premises. My team was in charge of the on-premise environment, so there was a queue for my team with everything in Opsgenie, then the DevOps team had its queue on a group of infrastructure related to the cloud. Each team had its own devices organized in a group that was only managed per team. The on-call rotation was also separated between groups. Opsgenie is a very convenient solution for both teams in my previous company."

"That clarity, visibility, scheduling, and the management of on-call schedules, as well as tracking SLA breaches and workload, are key reasons to utilize Opsgenie."

"Opsgenie has streamlined our communications and alerting."

More Opsgenie pros

"Having worked closely with Splunk support engineers, I've observed their high capabilities in resolving issues."

"One particularly useful feature of Splunk ITSI is the ability to create custom services."

"The flexibility to develop and consolidate many solutions into one platform is great."

"The most valuable aspect lies in its utilization of predictive analytics to anticipate and prevent incidents within a window of twenty to thirty minutes."

"The service analyzer view and automatic creation of incidents are valuable."

"Customers have noted the solution helps streamline incident management."

"Our mean time to detect is down to five minutes."

"ITSI includes a feature called a glass table."

More Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) pros

Cons

"Initially, Opsgenie had bidirectional integration with Jira Service Management, but that functionality has been scaled back. Previously, Opsgenie was adept at managing incidents within its ecosystem, offering seamless ticket transfers between Opsgenie and Jira Service Desk. I valued the ability to push tickets between the two platforms, addressing the need for widespread information accessibility, though it sometimes led to duplication. My suggestion would be to reintroduce complete ticket funneling between these systems to streamline operations."

"The handshake with the monitoring tools can also be improved. When there were a bunch of alerts or the number of alerts was more than a thousand in a minute, OpsGenie wasn't able to handle everything properly. The handshake issues were there."

"The user interface could be improved."

"When I needed to add the fourth guy to the on-call rotation, I had trouble finding the option in Opsgenie where I can add the new user. It took me some time to figure out because it it was very small. You have a pencil icon that you need to click, but it was so small and in a place that wasn't so obvious, so this is an area for improvement in the solution. I couldn't find the icon myself and my manager had to show me where it is. Opsgenie needs to be more user-friendly, particularly when it comes to finding the "Add New Users" option in the on-call rotation feature. Other than that, the solution was very easy to use, and you can see both the open and closed alerts."

"I would like to see a little bit more work in API key management in the Opsgenie UI. It's a bit difficult to manage sometimes. For example, in terms of management, you can either see all the keys or none of the keys. This is something for which I would like to have better granularity so that I could give some people access to some of the keys. It's something that I don't have today if I'm not mistaken."

"We are using the cloud version of Atlassian products now, but I think the Data Center version we used earlier was much more user-friendly. There are lots of limitations in the cloud version The add-on or features that work with the Data Center versions are not compatible with the cloud version."

"OpsGenie needs to keep up with its competitors in terms of new features and pricing."

"It should have a lot of plugins. It should also come with cloud integrations, which are not that great with OpsGenie as of now. It should have AWS, Azure, and Google cloud integrations. It should also provide automation, that is, it should open somewhere, like orchestration. Something like the orchestration that ServiceNow is doing. That would be great. Orchestration is the main thing. If OpsGenie comes with stack down feature, not completely but some part of it, and orchestration is there, that would be beneficial."

More Opsgenie cons

"We also faced challenges relating to UI development."

"The user interface visualization could be improved."

"It would be advantageous to enhance the dashboard by incorporating sections for monitoring, service health, and a filter for the KPIs."

"We had issues with support that took a long time to resolve."

"It would be good if an interface was included in the next release."

"We have problems doing upgrades and operating alternate new versions."

"We're using predictive analytics, and there are three or four algorithms. It would be helpful if this process were more standardized and scalable."

"The end-to-end visibility in Splunk ITSI is limited and has room for improvement."

More Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution depends on the package you select and is per user."

"The pricing is fine. I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with one being high price and ten being low price."

"The solution's prices are exorbitant."

"I'm not the person who dealt with Opsgenie in terms of pricing, and I don't know how the solution compares to other solutions in the market, price-wise. I won't be able to say if it gives you the best value for money or not, but if Opsgenie gives good value for money, then I don't see a reason why you shouldn't use it."

"I rate Opsgenie eight out of 10 for affordability. Opsgenie is on the cheaper side, and it fits our budget. I estimate the license costs around $400 to 500 annually for 15 users. The price is available on the internet. It's a standard, straightforward price."

"From the pricing perspective, they are on the higher side as compared to other competitors."

"We have opted for a yearly subscription. The initial quote given was about $29, but I don't know the actual price. There might be some negotiations during renewal."

"The pricing is on the lower side; I would rate it a six out of ten, with ten being low price, which indicates good affordability."

More Opsgenie pricing and cost advice

"The licensing is based on data usage."

"Splunk pricing is high."

"Splunk ITSI is expensive."

"Pricing has some room for improvement."

"It depends on how big an organization is. If we have a lot of resources, the licensing needs to be upgraded. If we have a small environment, the licensing cost is definitely going to be less."

"Splunk ITSI is expensive compared to other tools."

"I know that it is expensive, but I do not think there is another solution that can do similar things for that price."

"Its pricing has been changed as per the market. You get a good support service with it as well. They have 24/7 customer support. There is a portal, and if you are having issues, they are available in order to resolve them. So, its pricing isn't too much."

Overview

Users are empowered to manage their contact details and notification preferences in a single location, hence the administrators don't have to maintain this information at each application. OpsGenie is a cloud based service with reliable, distributed architecture that is replicated in multiple data centers, and monitored around the clock. The lifecycle for each alert, notifications, actions taken by users, are recorded and reported to enable admins to easily analyze what happened. No more wasting time, digging up log files. No more finger pointing.

Most enterprises employ multitude of tools for IT management: for monitoring, ticketing, configuration and change management, etc. Although each of these tools may be individually capable of sending notifications via email or SMS, it is a burden for administrators to maintain the same information in each of these multiple, disparate systems.

OpsGenie enables organizations to consolidate notification management into a single management system. OpsGenie enables users to maintain their own contact details and preferences in one place, eliminating duplication of data, reducing administrative overhead.
