Great for identifying application interdependencies with helpful support but needs better visualizations
We're just trying to identify the application interdependencies, which normally reside on different servers, including web servers, database servers, enterprise service bus, et cetera, up to your presentation layer before we start moving stuff around. Normally, the reason why we use these tools is to understand what assets we have, where they're deployed, and how they enter and operate before we decide to go move something from point A to point B. The solution is going to allow me to establish a wave or migration plan where you have different waves of migration and then you actually have move groups to try and get your application moved from A to B seamlessly. A to B could be on-premise to on-premise. It could be on-premise to cloud. Et cetera. The solution can tell me what components can I deploy, for example, into a cloud space, without having to refactor my applications since that can be quite time-consuming and costly.

Centralized monitoring has highlighted limited device control but has improved proactive actions
I have configured adaptive thresholds on servers while using ManageEngine OpManager. If there is high CPU utilization or storage usage, the system will notify me or reset the system or reset the services. ManageEngine OpManager has multiple features that are valuable to our organization. We have integrated our firewall into ManageEngine OpManager, and it provides us notifications for firewall issues as well. ManageEngine OpManager provides an adaptive threshold feature that is very effective. The alerts and the ability to restart services or computers or end devices in ManageEngine OpManager are what I find most valuable. If we have set performance monitoring adaptive thresholds and they exceed the configured value, the system will take action automatically. We can also integrate our switches and access points and control them from ManageEngine OpManager.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a must-try product."
"Wire data analytics."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"ExtraHop came out with the best price, and I think that it gives us a broader view of our network."
"It's a must-have solution for large IT Operations, providing the ability to analyze infrastructure and application-related performance and data from the wire perspective."
"The most valuable feature is the way it handles data, from Layer 2 up to Layer 7. We can see everything that happens in the network."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"ExtraHop is far ahead of anything comparable in the industry."
"OpManager technical support is good."
"ManageEngine OpManager has many beneficial features that bring value to enterprises, allowing them to manage from 1,000 to 10,000 devices in one console, with multiple add-ons enhancing its utility, such as Firewall Analyzer, which optimizes rules and displays all rules in the firewall."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"It is easy to use and deploy."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."
"Overall, I give the product a rating of ten."
"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution."
 

Cons

"We've had some struggles getting it to see everything that we want to see. Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"The improvement that would make the most impact would be expanding on the new EXA big data back end."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"The solution could get more aggressive in the discounting of the overall cost."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"Additional out-of-the-box solutions and use cases would be nice."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"We get a lot of false alerts."
"If you have a ton of devices, it might slow down a bit."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"What I'd like ManageEngine OpManager to improve on is artificial intelligence. In particular, the machine learning feature should be integrated with the sensor flow. Doing this will give leverage, especially when you look at other products such as the Cisco DNA Center. When a switch goes down, I should be able to build on the correlation of other physical devices it's connected to so that I can integrate that with my CA CMDB. The ManageEngine OpManager team needs to draw a long-term roadmap where that feature becomes an integral part of the solution because right now, machine learning in ManageEngine OpManager is a long process. The solution doesn't have MLS search and I want to see ML being developed and applied for CA CMDB to greatly reduce the burden of tying everything. For example, if I have a data center switch that goes down now, I should know what server it's connected to, and when that switch goes down at twenty-four ports, I would get twenty-four alerts for different devices plugged in. I should be able to make a correlation that the major problem lies in the switch and not with the twenty-four elements connected to that switch. That is where machine learning should come into play and the ManageEngine OpManager AI should indicate "This is where the root of your problem is." It could be difficult, but this is a feature that should be improved or added to the solution."
"You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper."
"Support is very bad. They should improve support and customer relationship."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is higher than other solutions, but with such good features, I think it's worth it."
"The price of this solution for our environment is about £650,000 ($855,000 USD) for three years."
"The pricing is fair considering the value provided."
"It is reasonably priced."
"Pricing for ManageEngine OpManager depends on the number of nodes you onboard and whatever pricing is reflected on the ManageEngine portal which offers discounts from ten percent to fifteen percent. It purely depends on the sales volume and the negotiation. In my organization, there are about one thousand two hundred nodes which cost around $29,000 per year. There's no additional support fee or maintenance fee from ManageEngine OpManager. Pricing for the solution is highly competitive and I would rate it five out of five. ManageEngine OpManager is one of the most competitive options out there."
"The initial cost is low and the add-ons are reasonable."
"In terms of pricing, I would rate it a two out of five. It was expensive."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing is on the cheaper side."
"ManageEngine OpManager has a three-tier licensing model."
"The price for ManageEngine OpManager is average."
