Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We utilize BMC TrueSight Operations Management to proactively monitor all of our physical and virtual server environments, and coupled with Entuity for TrueSight Operations Management, we can have a holistic view of our network and server environments health in a single pane of glass."
"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."
"Now, through the use of this product, we have been able to reduce the headcount by five people, as we are able to eliminate the eyes on the glass."
"The tool is flexible enough to be customized based on customer requirements."
"The event management tool builds correlation logic and protection algorithms into a field of events that is valuable when a data center goes down."
"The BMC TrueSight platform wins probably 80 percent of the time if you look feature by feature."
"This is the best product so far I have ever experienced."
"The solution is stable, we have not needed to speak to the vendor regarding any issues, it has been operating very well."
"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
 

Cons

"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could use some enhancements in the application visibility tools."
"I definitely would like to see more improvement in the self-diagnostics. I need to know when anything is not working or collecting, long before our customer finds it."
"The pricing could be better."
"I think the ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size."
"The solution could improve its price."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size. At present, the installation packages can be quite large."
"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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..."
"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."
"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 price of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is very high. If there was more flexibility with the sizing of the licensing it would be helpful, especially during the pandemic. We have wanted to expend but the licensing cost is too high."
"Pricing is very high."
"The solution is based on endpoints and knowledge models which can be costly."
"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."
