Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"​I would rate the technical support very well as they are knowledgeable and quick to respond​."

More Quest InTrust Pros →

"The tool helps my company deal with security and log analysis, which are very important areas for us...It is a scalable solution.""The virtualization solution supports data center virtualization, network and security.""The interface of the solution is good.""It is a very useful tool if you have a VMware environment.""The setup and installation are very easy.""One of the most valuable features of vRealize Log Insight is that it gives you a clear forecast about your existing machines, for example, how long your machines could be supported and how long the remaining capacity is to host your machines. This is one of the best options available within vRealize Log Insight. Another valuable feature of the solution is automation. My company deploys a lot of automation when required in a very, very short period, and in a very uniform manner, and even if the automation is being deployed for different processes and departments, it's pretty much the same across the environment, so vRealize Log Insight helps reduce a lot of ambiguities and helps my company manage operational efficiencies well.""It is a highly stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution.""What I like is that you can have different storage locations for different applications."

Cons
"​It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. ​""​It needs to have better reporting. ​"

More Quest InTrust Cons →

"Log Insight should be better at dealing with audits and security logs. We use another product called QRadar for that.""From an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made more user-friendly.""In the VMware environment, one area for improvement is the handling of VM failovers due to host failures, such as unexpected shutdowns from hardware issues. Currently, High Availability (HA) doesn't seem to recognize whether the VMs are online during failover, treating them as offline or unavailable.""The monitoring landscape is getting bigger. When it comes to infrastructure monitoring, we need more visibility. VMware needs to integrate more related applications and third-party products. That would make it more appealing to an audience beyond the VMware team.""The solution should be more user-friendly. The user interface and dashboard could be simplified.""It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins.""Integration with other vendors is something that could be improved, they could add more vendors.""In vRealize login files, we have limitations regarding log partitions."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Do a PoC. Make it detailed so it can help later."
  • More Quest InTrust Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing could always be lower. If it were free, I would be more satisfied."
  • "The license cost for any other monitoring tool is too high compared to this product."
  • "Pricing is good because it is part of the suite package. It comes in a bundle for us."
  • "The licensing cost for vRealize Log Insight is a little higher, so in terms of cost, it all depends upon what kind of environment you have. If you have a complete virtualized environment, or at least you're using a ninety-five percent virtualized environment, then vRealize Log Insight will play a very good role because it is a VMware component, so it has very tight integration with other VMware components and systems. This means you don't have to procure any other monitoring and management tool, and you don't need a separate automation tool. vRealize Log Insight will have an upper hand if your environment is purely virtualized on VMware. If you're using a mix of physical and virtual components, for example, a 50:50 ratio, then you need to have a third-party component to manage overall monitoring."
  • "I am not sure what the exact cost is. However, I believe the vRealize suite costs $2,500.00 per year."
  • "I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
  • "I think it is a reasonably priced product."
  • "The pricing has been updated recently."

    Top Answer:The product's price is reasonable, but when it comes to SQL licensing, it's a bit expensive. So, it's expensive, not extremely expensive. I would rate the pricing a two out of ten, with ten being very… more »
