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.

Has helped centrally manage users and assets while making operational tasks more efficient
The main drawback is there is less documentation available, both public documentation and partner-available documentation. The learning materials are very limited, and there is also a limitation of support SLA. It takes a huge amount of time to resolve certain issues when ManageEngine OpManager technical support gets involved. The expertise of support is limited. Reporting could be improved with more details. The content and richness can be improved on the reports. To make ManageEngine OpManager a better product, the first priority is improving the after-sales support and learning materials for local engineers and partners to enhance their capacities and expertise. The second priority is improving the product itself, including dashboards and reporting enrichment. Lastly, new feature adoption such as DLP or endpoint monitoring should be considered. Features that should be offered include DLP, Privileged User Access, data classification, and MDR. These are features that can be groomed around the MMS if properly configured.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have been able to improve the mean time to resolution by several hours in some cases."
"Wire data analytics."
"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."
"It gives you full 360-degree visibility into your entire infrastructure."
"You cannot hide from the wire; all truth lives in the packets, and ExtraHop gets them to talk!"
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"ExtraHop is far ahead of anything comparable in the industry."
"Rich GUI tool to monitor infrastructure."
"The product provides intensive reports."
"Device monitoring is a good tool of this solution."
"Alerting is the biggest asset as we can have real-time failure view and predict failures in some cases."
"The uptime and monitoring are valuable to us because we need to monitor the uptime of our services, the memory, and the CPUs."
"We use the solution to monitor links. It also helps us to track servers and monitor logs."
"ManageEngine OpManager positively impacts organizations by allowing users to practically manage their network, so they can understand exactly what's happening and where the problems are coming from, ensuring proactive monitoring."
"Concerning the ROI from ManageEngine OpManager, we're very happy and satisfied because we didn't have to pay for additional overheads, particularly because we now don't need that many admins, so we were able to save."
 

Cons

"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"We've had some struggles getting it to see everything that we want to see. Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"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."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"There is room for improvement in the security part. They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"The improvement that would make the most impact would be expanding on the new EXA big data back end."
"The solution could get more aggressive in the discounting of the overall cost."
"This product is little bit slow sometimes."
"The pricing of the solution is high. They should work to adjust the pricing model to see if they can help reduce costs."
"They should add more features to URL monitoring."
"It is sometimes difficult to manage the user interface. It can get very complicated."
"This solution is not suitable for enterprise-sized deployments, as it sometimes hangs and needs to be restarted."
"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by adding network device control capabilities."
"We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fair considering the value provided."
"The price of this solution for our environment is about £650,000 ($855,000 USD) for three years."
"The pricing is higher than other solutions, but with such good features, I think it's worth it."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."
"The price of ManageEngine OpManager is reasonable. We have an annual license and the cost comes from how many devices are being monitored. There is not anything extra cost for maintenance and support."
"The solution's licensing costs are yearly and based on the number of applications."
"The solution's pricing is very low compared to other products."
"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."
"We had perpetual licenses. The cost was around 36,000 for OPManager, and then you'd have the yearly maintenance fee of 2,000 or 3,000."
"The solution is highly affordable"
"We have a standard license for ManageEngine OpManager. We purchased the license for one year and now we are upgrading it soon."
