An end-to-end performance monitoring and event management solution with a useful synthetic monitor
Pros and Cons
  • "I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data. The synthetic monitor is the best one. The best point of the new one is that there's no need for configuration. You can inject the Java script and start to change major developments in the application. This is a good approach, and we received all the data using this."
  • "I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."

What is most valuable?

I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data. The synthetic monitor is the best one. The best point of the new one is that there's no need for configuration. You can inject the Java script and start to change major developments in the application. This is a good approach, and we received all the data using this.

What needs improvement?

I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. 

There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using BMC TrueSight Operations Management for six years.

How are customer service and support?

BMC support is very good, and they always find solutions. They can give you a release back or batch it if somebody needs assistance. This is a good thing for BMC support. BMC support is very good, and you can get the full journey if you have the full solution. 

BMC TrueSight Operations Management has a module covering all the applications and search, the website hardware utilization, and the traffic and storage. You can get all the details, and it will be better if you have different websites. You have the full journey and no need to bother the tool itself.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward and easy to implement quickly. You can receive all the data, and you can have a lot of dashboards covering all the details like how much traffic, the OS, the federal ID, client ID, and location. If all of this is the same, you can create tables, dashboards, server ID, and client ID.

What other advice do I have?

I would advise potential users to try to get TrueSight Infrastructure Monitoring and synthetic when implementing BMC. Then they will have a very powerful solution. The main point is that it's the manager of managers. It would be best if you highlighted this, and BMC can integrate with all monitoring solutions. They will have only one screen to show all. That is the multiple monitoring application.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give BMC TrueSight Operations Management an eight.
