End-to-end monitoring has improved user experience and now supports comprehensive observability
The most valuable features of eG Enterprise depend on the application, so that's pretty vast, but they definitely include end-to-end application and infrastructure monitoring. User satisfaction with eG Enterprise is really the key component now, so if you go to VDI or RDH, any of those platforms, you get the total end-to-end user experience because they do have endpoint monitoring now as well, and that was the feature that was lacking before.

Managing application health has become simpler but new monitoring features still need faster delivery
I use application discovery and dependency mapping. It helps with managing application health What I like about ManageEngine Applications Manager is the ease of use and ease of deployment. I cannot remember anything specific for future updates of the product. The new features take a lot of time…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use, it's a simple product, and you can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"I hope this quick overview of version 6.1 of eG innovation Enterprise gives a nice insight in what they offer today, visit them at https://eginnovations.com ( https://eginnovations.com/ ) to find out more."
"Absolutely choose it. It is a great company. They are always available."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"The Service Level Management (SLM) rules engine stands out due to its flexibility and customization capabilities, making it an invaluable tool for tailoring processes to our specific needs."
"We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys, and they provide very good support for us."
"What I like about ManageEngine Applications Manager is the ease of use and ease of deployment."
"For a small organization, I think ManageEngine is pretty nice, I think it's enough."
"Depending on the size of the environment, this is a solution that I recommend."

"We do not have pricing constraints as an organization, because we do have reservations about ManageEngine being functionally scalable."
 

Cons

"The integration must be improved."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."

"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"I would not buy this product again knowing what I know now. It takes too much time and it is still not where it used to be."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
