Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

Cons

"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
"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."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
"They should add CLI command modes​ and scripts for high performance."
"They need a little more self-service."
"The process should be made easier. It is very complicated, and there is more with NetBackup; it is very difficult for me to oversee."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment. Veritas Resiliency Platform is not very handy for cloud-to-cloud, cross-platform replication."
"The solution should allow users to export data to Tableau."
"The process should be made easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
"The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
"Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"The product has a fair price."
