Find out in this report how the two Event Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"I find the Micro Focus Operations Bridge dashboard valuable, including its instrument analysis and anomaly control features that help indicate root causes and problems with your infrastructure."
"The preloaded rules and ways to monitor your systems are a must."
"Purely, its flexibility is the most valuable aspect. It is hugely configurable."
"It is stable."
"The correlation feature is the most used feature. It allows you to correlate events from different sources and have more meaningful events."
"The integration with the ticketing tool makes sure that there is a record for every issue."
"We use the on-premises version to monitor our systems and manage emails. All our systems use Operations Bridge, especially the critical systems."
"The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."
"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 pricing is a bit expensive for smaller companies."
"Our issues are largely support related due to where we are and the knowledge base that we have here. This issue relates both HPE in general and to the technical products."
"We are waiting for quicker release cycles. Also containerized upgrade, so that you don't have to bring a system entirely down to make a minor upgrade, in fact, or a minor patch."
"Implementation could be improved."
"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."
"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."
"I know that in the next version, X1005, they're moving to more graphical overviews, which should help our senior managers."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
