It offers different licensing types that allow you to extend the services to clients; it lets you look into device performance and optimization and helps apply best practices
What I like best about IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is that it offers different licensing types. Hence, it allows my organization to extend the services to clients and not just use the solution within the organization. My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices.
Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
CEO / Co-Founder at Aiops ltd
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

"Now with the features given through up.time we have over 300 + monitors constantly checking every environment that we have and also checking databases for errors."
"Easy to setup and begin monitoring."
"Customer Service: 5 stars! Excellent. Technical Support: 5 stars! Excellent."
"My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices."
"Its ITSM and EMS combination is really amazing. There is no need to purchase two products, one for ITSM and a second for EMS/NMS."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"A major benefit is eliminating visibility gaps, which motivates me to consolidate tools."
"Web monitoring, service and processes monitoring have saved and prevented more than just one outage."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"After deploying ScienceLogic in our infrastructure and configured IT services around our critical applications we have experienced a considerable drop in major incidents which impact our customers."
"The solution provides good infra-monitoring features."
"It has a lot of integration capabilities as well; we can integrate with a lot of things, monitor emails and APIs, handle customization and automation, and there is a great dashboard with many features to take advantage of."
 

Cons

"While you can restrict particular users to only see subsets of the reports, it isn't as easy as it could be."
"Maintenance windows need to be streamlined."
"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"ScienceLogic is working towards a kind of AI, DKAIRA enablement, but I find one dependency is the frequent need to rely on professional services."
"Simplified Interface - ScienceLogic can be a bit overwhelming when you begin working with it."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring."
"ScienceLogic should provide detailed documents to customer as the current documents are not sufficient."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"Reporting needs to be improved. It was sold as a tool we could use for our clients and it was a complete failure."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm based in Nigeria, and the conversion rate affects the pricing for IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor, but globally, pricing is reasonable. I'm rating pricing for the solution seven on a scale of one to ten."
"I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
"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."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
