Easy to install and use with good support and
It's too early to say what improvements are needed, but I can only say we are happy with our decision to move to TMON. We haven't looked at the graphic tools so far, but they're on our to-do list for this year. We will see what happens after the move to Rocket Software. We haven't seen any missing information about our daily work and analysis of our production systems and applications. We're like it to be possible to move some more workload to our ZIIP processors to save us some billing for general workload.

Integrated monitoring has improved real-time visibility and reduced manual incident resolution
BMC AMI Ops has helped my organization positively by reducing the manual monitoring process. Before this tool was implemented, the operators had to constantly watch the dashboard and logs, and issues could be missed if nobody noticed them. With BMC AMI Ops, alerts automatically notify the operations team, allowing users to focus on tasks instead of constantly monitoring these things, reducing the need for manual monitoring and enabling focus on other priority tasks. BMC AMI Ops provides strong monitoring and operational visibility capabilities; however, enhancements in dashboard customization could further improve the overall user experience. Additional automation capabilities will provide greater operational efficiency. The best features that BMC AMI Ops offers, in my experience, are real-time monitoring, intelligent alerts, performance management, automation capabilities, and centralized visibility. The real-time feature stood out the best for me, as it provides system health information, detects issues, and impresses me. The intelligent alerts in BMC AMI Ops are automated notifications in my company, generating notifications for alerts when the system detects abnormal conditions or goes down. For example, when the CPU usage is too high, storage usage crosses the threshold, batch jobs are delayed, transaction response time degrades, or a critical application fails, these intelligent alerts create notifications.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The report writer in TMON is a very good add-on for batch reports which weren't available in OmegaMon/CICS."
"Batch smoothing our 4HRA and implementation of group capacity profiles has allowed us to run sub-capacity and lower our MLC."
"The integration of IMS commands is very useful, because you do not have to switch to another tool to problem solve solutions."
"My team leverages the observability and intelligent monitoring capabilities of BMC AMI Ops to gain early visibility into potential performance and operational issues, and the proactive monitoring and analytics features have helped us identify anomalies sooner, reduce troubleshooting time, and improve overall system availability."
"MainView has enabled me, in the past, to solve production problems faster, or even avoid them preemptively with warnings."
 

Cons

"We're like it to be possible to move some more workload to our ZIIP processors to save us some billing for general workload."
"An expansion for distributed systems would be great, but probably not workable."
"More visualisation and support for mobile devices would be good."
"BMC AMI Ops provides strong monitoring and operational visibility capabilities; however, enhancements in dashboard customization could further improve the overall user experience."
