Has improved monitoring efficiency and supports fast issue resolution through responsive support and reliable automation
I work with BMC TrueSight and have been using it for eight-plus years BMC TrueSight brought a positive impact and benefits to our organization. The customization part is one of the advantages of the product, along with the monitoring capabilities. Automated root cause analysis and predictive…

Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is a firefighter that will help you when problems come."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data."
"It allows our operations team to have one single application to reference when investigating issues in our environment."
"This is the best product so far I have ever experienced."
"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."
"From the time we get the incident logged to the time we get the customer back up and running, it has improved that by 33 percent or greater."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
"The technical support is good."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
 

Cons

"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could improve the reporting."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities. Where you can train your artificial intelligence operations to be able to memorize an issue once you encounter one scenario, so if you encounter that same problem, you can get to the root cause very quickly."
"In a large company of our size, we need multiple people in our company trained. So, I have to take the training classes. Then, I have to go and train the rest of my organization. I would prefer to say to the other people on my team, "Go to this link and..." Or, "Here's a list of training sessions that you can go to which are online and that are free." I think it would help the adoption of their product in the marketplace, personally."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities."
"It's too complex, too many servers are required, there are too many different components in the solution, and a lot of agents are required."
"More modules for less popular applications and better documentation."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size. At present, the installation packages can be quite large."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"The GUI could be improved."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a big upfront cost when you buy the license, then there is annual maintenance. We look at, if I bought a license and paid for maintenance for five years, then average it out, what would be my monthly cost. We have had some of the competing tools come in around four dollars. This is coming in as a premium, which is why I don't have it deployed as I would like it. Therefore, we're in negotiations right now. If I can get it down to the four dollar range, I will triple my deployment in a year and a half."
"It is a relatively inexpensive solution."
"We're end-of-lifeing it now. Overall, the licensing costs of BMC are a challenge for us in that they're hard costs, whereas open-source monitoring has soft costs, where it's harder to line-item."
"The solution is based on endpoints and knowledge models which can be costly."
"We did a five-year, multimillion dollar deal."
"The only possible additional cost that I can mention, that you might not be aware of, is that it uses Oracle partitioning, if you use Oracle. There are Oracle partitioning fees that go with that."
"Annual licensing amount depends on the customers requirements. Support is an additional fee and there are options for three and five year support."
"Other products are more expensive than BMC TrueSight."
