Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive
It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that the solution offers a diversity of things; it can give you resource monitoring, it can be integrated to detect an application crash, to capture syslog, things like that, and I like the diversity of the dashboard."
"My overall conclusion is that it is a valuable product for simulating Citrix logons because it does it with minimal effort and with a real user account."
"In conclusion, I think Goliath Performance Monitor is a true winner."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"I think Goliath offers a very good tool to do simulated Citrix logons with actual user accounts and that the reports are useful to monitor and debug a session."
"I would definitely give them high praise for what they do, and for being a special niche product."
"The support's been fantastic."
"ScienceLogic is multi-tenant from the ground up, starting at the code level."
"The stability of ScienceLogic is great."
"ScienceLogic is an excellent all around suite of tools."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"The customizable dashboard is my favorite feature because I have everything that matters to me in my role available immediately at sign on, and we can also customize a customer's dashboard view so that from analyst to C-level executive we can give the customer exactly what they want and need to see at sign on."
"It is simple."
"Technical Support: The best I've ever experienced."
 

Cons

"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
"Hardware requirements of the management server are kind of steep, 4cpu is quite a number."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"Reporting is still a gigantic pain point, we invest a lot of cycles in manufacturing reports off-board -#notfun."
"The overall product rating is six out of ten. It's suitable for specific customers, although slower in implementation and offering tougher ROI compared to some."
"I would like to see an expansion of the API."
"Overall monitoring capabilities could be improved. We run into instances where we are not able to configure monitoring for specific things and it requires quite a bit of manual labor to accomplish these tasks."
"The UI takes a bit to learn but once you get past that it gets the job done."
"If I were a small to medium business, I probably wouldn't choose this provider. It is a heavily configurable, heavyweight, and scalable IT solution for IT infrastructure monitoring."
"There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price seems reasonable."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"Decide what you want to monitor and only monitor those items. Absorb other elements as you grow."
"Pricing between the two is quiet large therefore you can save some money if you don't require to collect all info on each device."
"Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
