What do you like most about BMC TrueSight Operations Management?

The solution provides visibility to our infrastructure, how it is, the resources we are monitoring, and quick updates when it has any problems. We have integrated it with ServiceNow to open instances.

The tool is flexible enough to be customized based on customer requirements.

It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running.

The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management.

It is a very stable product.

The major advantage of the product is estate management.

It is a scalable solution.

What I like best about BMC TrueSight Operations Management is that it allows you to do granular monitoring and improves VM load.

The most valuable features of BMC TrueSight Operations Management are the blackouts and event management.

The event management tool builds correlation logic and protection algorithms into a field of events that is valuable when a data center goes down.

I like everything about this tool.

I recommend this solution to anyone looking for a standalone solution with high availability meaning that can be used depending on the customers requirements.

The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good.

The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server.

It is a stable solution.

BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable.

I like the event management part.

Helix Innovation Studio is a very good feature. It allows us to develop our own enterprise applications and make them available for the customers.

Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale.

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.

The solution has a very good business event manager tool.

The event management part of TrueSight Operations Management, in my experience, is probably the best in the market. You have endless flexibility. You can build your own rules, you have the MRL language, and you can implement any kind of logic on the alerts. It may be correlation, abstraction, or executing something as a result of the alerts. You have almost the whole range of options available for event management using the available customization.

The solution's event management capabilities are fantastic. We do a best of breed. If, on the network side, they use a different tool, we pull all that data in so that we have a single console. It's kind of like the monitor of monitors. We're able to aggregate all the different types of data sets, whether it's log data, app data, OS data, infrastructure data, or network data. We're able to aggregate all those events and then correlate and be able to say we're having an event.

We have one application, which is fairly large. In the past, we had Level 1 and 2 NOC support teams who were responsible for watching dashboards. When they saw an issue in the application, they would call Level 2 or 3 support and escalate the call, if necessary. Now, through the use of this product, we have been able to reduce the headcount by five people, as we are able to eliminate the eyes on the glass. We no longer have people watching the dashboard. We have events which are processed automatically through the system and get to the right people. We had six people in L1s, and now have one. So, we reduced five out of six headcount, which is pretty significant.

From an administrative standpoint, what stands out in TrueSight is the ability to implement quickly. When they have a requirement to monitor something, we're able to turn that on quickly in their environment. We're able to set up new apps within a day.

We're using native monitoring capabilities for all our server hardware, for visibility for applications, for URLs, for webpage response and accuracy, and for monitoring network throughput in a lot of particular instances. We're using lightweight protocols for pinging, for DNS, for LDAP.

Its event management capabilities are very open and flexible. I haven't seen a use case scenario with a customer that we couldn't actually solve the problem for, so it's really good. There are some interesting things that happen in an enterprise network (things that people don't normally expect), and the event management product is very flexible. You can solve problems as far as your imagination can go with it.

It is breadth. It covers so many different technologies which can roll up into a single console.

Using the TrueSight platform we can monitor server performance and notify the customers using the integrated ticketing for events. We can let them know if there are any issues with a server, or application, or database.

The ability of this platform to monitor the very diverse assets that we maintain around the world is its most valuable feature... We support a vast array of manufacturers' equipment, like HP, IBM, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Hitachi... We can do it all with [this] one [solution].

The fact that they have a very integrated relationship with Sentry Software, the Knowledge Module, is valuable... The richest feature for us is the number of Knowledge Modules that we can load into the product to add breadth of service to the customer. It enables us to move up the operational stack from hardware, to operating system, to application, and to cloud... That enables us to provide one pane of glass over all those layers - hardware, OS, app, and cloud.
