Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup was straightforward, without complexity."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager's installation is pretty easy."
"We do not have pricing constraints as an organization, because we do have reservations about ManageEngine being functionally scalable."
"Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"I am impressed with the tool's reporting feature which is simple."
"What I like most about ManageEngine Applications Manager is its price point, apart from its technicalities. The solution is cheaper than its competitors. ManageEngine Applications Manager has helpful documentation that makes setting it up straightforward."
"ITSM is a valuable feature, it complies with the requirements in Pakistan."
"A simple and stable solution for small businesses that use virtualization."
"The backup and replication capabilities are quite good."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"It is a powerful software for communicating with the storage and for redundancy."
"It has helped us to protect our IP address and critical information."
"The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment."
"Veeam Backup has many valuable features and every feature is different. I have created backups for file-level backup, VMware or hypervisor virtual machines, physical machines, and workstations as well. Every time, I learn something new."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
 

Cons

"Even with the top-notch dashboard, it could be made stronger in order to have an additional plug-in for analytics."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"An area for improvement in ManageEngine Applications Manager is artificial intelligence. If AI is integrated into the solution, it'll be a piece of cake. Currently, it's all configured manually."
"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
"The integration process with third party tools poses some challenges; enhancing the robustness of these integrations could greatly improve overall functionality and user experience."
"Veeam ONE could be improved if it had a better data recovery feature."
"The navigation of menus can be difficult to find what you're looking for sometimes."
"Veeam Backup & Replication should include a cloud solution."
"The deduplication feature could be improved by changing to global deduplication."
"The product’s stability has certain issues and needs to be improved. The solution’s pricing could be also cheaper."
"It would be preferable if they could introduce a complete Linux version instead of relying solely on Microsoft for management. There should be a unified integration of all their products. Currently, there are various products like cloud backup and others that exist separately. It would be better if they could create a single comprehensive platform or product, as opposed to having disparate products that lack proper communication between them."
"They could include better automation features for migrating VMs without further configuration for the product."
"The threshold could be easier to configure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's licensing costs are yearly."
"Its price is good."
"The annual licensing depends on the number of monitors you have connected. Once you get to two hundred monitors you can see the price reflect."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager has reasonable pricing. It's more affordable than other solutions in the market. My company has an instance-based license for ManageEngine Applications Manager. You can purchase a yearly subscription or a perpetual license. The standard license covers most features, but you can still have some paid add-ons."
"The cost of this solution is not too bad, although it could be cheaper considering what you're getting for the price."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"The solution is noted for its cost-effectiveness, a crucial consideration for potential users."
"The licensing costs for ManageEngine Applications Manager are around $1,200 per year. For additional monitors, you have to pay extra."
"I don't know what the costs are for sure, but I think that it's on a yearly basis."
"It is always nice to get products cheaper. Technically, it saves you a lot of money. If you wanted to buy the same functionality out of vSphere, you would spend thousands to essentially get the same functionality."
"It is more cost-effective than some of the other solutions, but a lot of that comes down to the fact that we're a reseller. So, depending upon the deal, we do negotiate different price points for different customers. The price varies depending upon the size of the customer, the size of the deal, and the discounts we can negotiate."
"It is relatively cheap."
"The price of this product is very good."
"We pay for the license of Veeam Backup Replication on an annual basis. The cost of the license is approximately 70,000 rials. The support and maintenance are included in the price."
"The license is a bit expensive."
"When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price."
