Clients experience effective network management and comprehensive monitoring
Arista currently provides their solution for their own Arista products only. A problem occurs because customers do not have only Arista products. Sometimes they have different kinds of products available in their network. For monitoring that network, they have to either procure more solutions from third parties or they have to procure the provider OEM to manage their switches. If Arista can integrate third-party switches for monitoring purposes, it will be beneficial for the customers. Arista and other competitors such as Cisco or HPE Aruba have their own benefits. Cisco and Aruba face the challenge of having multiple OS for networking their products, whereas Arista has a single OS across their products. This is very beneficial for customers as they only have to manage a single OS.

"The most beneficial part of the product in terms of IT monitoring revolves around the areas involving automation, and it also serves as an end-to-end event management and incident management tool."
"The business event manager tool that consolidates detailed information from a single instance of equipment is the most valuable thing for me."
"It has provided more value than we expected and it does what it says it's going to do."
"I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"A single point of management and monitoring, as well as upgradation and update is valuable."

Cons

"Pricing is very high."
"More modules for less popular applications and better documentation."
"The solution could improve its price."

"Other products are more expensive than BMC TrueSight."
"The solution is based on endpoints and knowledge models which can be costly."

"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
