Senior Technical Engineer at a consultancy with 1-10 employees

Identifies and analyzes performance issues quickly using in-built AI and ML

With Alluvio AppResponse, there is an in-built analytical analysis with AI and ML, which identifies and provides data such as the number of TCP retransmits, web access time, total connection time out, total connections established, and server-side errors. The RTCC response time composition chart is crucial because it helps pinpoint the issue's origin, whether from the server, network, or application side. It's a superb product when compared to SolarWinds SAM, which is agent-based, while Alluvio AppResponse captures all traffic from the core switch.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices

One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Each AppResponse implementation made our stability better across our 500+ applications."

"Opnet probes (AppResponse Xpert), now part of Riverbed, capture network traffic and calculate automatically many applicative and network KPI."

"When it comes to the ability to scale up the product, this is suitable for small medium and large environments, PPG and Volkswagon being examples."

"The full visibility that you get from the backend is excellent."

"AppResponse is a total solution that gives you end-to-end visibility into applications at all levels, from Layer 1 to Layer 7. We can trace all those sections: physical, IP, transport, presentation, application, etc. It gives us the full picture."

"With some APM solutions, it can take a long time to check a periodic report, but you can get all the necessary details quickly with AppResponse."

"Riverbed's product is a superb product."

"This product helps us to monitor performance of these environments."

More Alluvio AppResponse pros

"Device grouping is very easy, and you can discover thousands of devices in a few minutes."

"I like this product and would recommend it to a colleague at another company."

"It is very scalable, stable, easy to use and manage."

"Grouping, Threshold/alerts, Netflow analyser, Private MIB object support are most valuable as they can provide more visibility into network performance, and for network troubleshooting."

"Being able to look back historically at the uptime and downtime is invaluable."

"Statseeker helps reduce the complexity of our network monitoring because it's real-time, or somewhat real-time, so we're able to see stuff quickly and react to it."

"This solution is used by our network operations center to identify down interfaces and predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."

"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."

More Statseeker pros

Cons

"The licenses are costly and are done per module."

"The AI features should be addressed in respect of the analysis and intelligence that must be supported and delivered in the tool to predigest the large amounts of data."

"If Alluvio AppResponse reduces its cost, it will be more beneficial for customers to monitor their application and network performance."

"Marketing is complex and not well understood, so often this product is not considered a good fit just for a surface look."

"It's not able to monitor SAP transactions."

"Integration between NPM and APM solutions would improve efficiency. There is no agent on the server site related to AppResponse."

"The initial setup is straightforward, but you have to know a little about the product. It's not for everybody to just plug and play. If you know how the solution is implemented then it is straightforward."

"Disks are heavily used for traffic capture and may break times to times but RAID feature avoids any production pause."

More Alluvio AppResponse cons

"I would like the ability to update the dashboard. I would also like the ability to access via an API."

"I would like to see NetFlow improved, with better reporting capabilities that are similar to Scrutinizer."

"The user interface needs a great deal of improvement."

"Configuration management: In configuration management it would be helpful if it would backup configuration files (running and start-up configuration) for devices. (Not sure if this is already available in the latest version)."

"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."

"If it's twice as much, however, then it's already getting a little expensive."

"I would like to have soft alarming. If an inner-base all of a sudden triggers a threshold, we have to rely on a lot of other tools and then we go into Statseeker to verify it. If Statseeker would confirm it preemptively and trigger it into our network panel, that would be nice."

"The interface looks like a Windows 3.1 program. It needs a complete refresh."

More Statseeker cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is a little bit high, especially because we have to pay an import tax."

"It is costly for small and medium businesses."

"The licensing model is expensive compared to its competitors, but the service it gives to your business, and the data quality, means that it's worth it."

"The solution is no more expensive than other products."

"One thing that needs improvement is how it's licensed. I understand historically the company licensed it off a same charge for everyone. I understand the company needs to make money, but how they introduced the tiered licensing model, and then multiple layers of licensing was a bit of an issue. So, on the whole, coming up with a licensing model that isn't confusing and complicated and is easy to understand would be one way to improve the product. They have told me lately that they're changing how they license stuff, but they haven't made that - as I understand it - in their marketing material public knowledge as of yet. I would say that at the moment it's a bit convoluted. It's confusing. Some of their basic licensing model is a bit of a ripoff. If you go over five or ten support calls in the basic licensing model they start charging you for support calls. I think that's a bit rich."

"Statseeker is pretty cheap."

"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."

"It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."

"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."

"The yearly cost varies as per the number of devices being monitored. The cost for 25,000 devices is about $4500."

"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."

"It's probably $5K a year for the license."
