Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"It allows our operations team to have one single application to reference when investigating issues in our environment."
"It is breadth. It covers so many different technologies which can roll up into a single console."
"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."
"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."
"It has provided us with a single location to host all events to be viewed/monitored by our NOC, which has greatly helped them to streamline their processes."
"The business event manager tool that consolidates detailed information from a single instance of equipment is the most valuable thing for me."
"Having a good monitoring implementation has made a world of difference to our operations teams."
"The dashboard is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"Reporting would be an area for improvement in TrueSight... We have almost 800 customers today on TrueSight and just under 10,000 assets. We need to be able to give a customer some information. If the customer's product fails, they'll ask us, "Did it have a problem beforehand?" We have all those events and we know all the problems it had beforehand. We have to be able to give them access to that kind of reporting. That's an enhancement that we need."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"Specifically around application performance monitoring, BMC is definitely not the market leader."
"The SLA reports that we get on TrueSight today are unfortunately worthless."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"Reporting would be an area for improvement in TrueSight."
"There are some complexities with deployment that could be improved in BMC TrueSight."
"The solution is pricy and has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Though I have no clue about the tool's actual price, I know that it is astronomical."
"Pricing is all volume-driven. I think we were paying between $80 and $85 per license. That's per unit, for a perpetual license. You pay it one time and then, every year, you pay 20 percent of that for annual maintenance and support. But now that we've grown, we've purchased tens of thousands of licenses and the cost per license has gone down to something like less than $30..."
"The tool is moderately expensive."
"Use conservative figures. In terms of hardware, monitored servers and also effort. The product is not cheap. But as with other products, you get what you pay for."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
"Consider scalability very carefully: how much you want to monitor and what components are very important. Then, depending on these two things, filter out unwanted metrics or attributes. If you do a good job at filtering the data, then your licensing costs will be manageable."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"The solution is based on endpoints and knowledge models which can be costly."
