Networking Head at Birla Corporation Ltd
Good statistical reporting, provides alerts via email, helpful support
The reporting capabilities are good. We have to manually configure reports based on what data we require. For example, it can show the downtime for uptime for a device. Once we configure the profile for each report, we can download it. We use Infraon to automatically trigger processes to help resolve issues when they are detected. For example, it will automatically raise a ticket and send an email to our ISP when it detects that a link is down. When a process is triggered automatically, we run one of the pre-configured scripts. We have not created any of the scripts ourselves but rather, only use the ones that are provided. These scripts are important because we use them for generating reports and emailing alerts, which are also used for auditing purposes. For example, our IT department has been improved because Infraon automatically creates reports that show our site uptime and downtime. We can see which site has more bandwidth utilization, link utilization, and link problems. It will show us what other devices are in the environment, which ones we need to replace, and how many sessions are being created. This solution assists us with our billing because we have many critical locations, and these need to have one hundred percent uptime, every month of the year. We generate reports monthly, quarterly, and yearly, which we then submit to management to cite the total uptime. Based on this, the billing is done. With respect to the learning curve, this tool is easy to learn because there is a lot of training material included. I suggest that the entire team learn to use it, rather than just one person, because it will make the tool more effective for the organization.

Real-time dashboards have improved our deployment monitoring and incident response
We are using Opsview ourselves, rather than being a consultant or a reseller. We do not use its auto-discovery feature. We do not utilize its API driven architecture. I do not know what metrics we use to assess the effectiveness of Opsview's hybrid IT monitoring. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does. I do not know if Grafana has any other advantages besides better stats, as I am not involved in that side. Based on my experience, I would still recommend Opsview to others as it is good for what it does. I gave this review a rating of 8.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable product; after the initial configuration, you don't have to tweak it much, and all systems of Everest IMS work perfectly."
"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."
"We use the solution to automatically trigger processes to help us resolve issues. The whole IT process has been automated, such as trying to map all the users and the escalation process. So, if any issue happens, we get an SMS and WhatsApp of the report. If there is a critical issue this has to be sorted out, like the entire data center being down, then there is an alarm."
"Their discovery is very quick and they have a CSV file upload mechanism that allows you to onboard five thousand devices a day."
"Overall, it's a wonderful one-stop ITSM solution for infrastructure."
"Being an engineering product, the customization is easy for us compared to SolarWinds and ManageEngine."
"Infraon IMS allows us to do several things from a single window, which is important to us."
"We have definitely seen ROI since we first implemented Infraon, three years ago, as it has given us clarity and helped us with compliance during audits."
"With the monitoring capabilities, I can tell when things happen and be proactive about them instead of constantly putting out fires."
"Customer service is great; always responsive, within minutes at times."
"Very easy-to-use interface, especially starting from v5 onwards Advanced tweaking possibilities Netflow"
"Over the past three years, we've grown by about 200%, and the system has been able to manage that growth."
"Afterwards, they were impressed by how easy monitoring could be, and they no longer had to edit large text files in order to configure hosts and service checks."
"Our support team are more responsive to failures and potential problems by using the Opsview Monitoring System."
"Opsview, though not the least expensive Nagios-based commercial monitoring product offers excellent value for performance which rivals expensive commercial products from the major IT vendors; it is well worth the money paid for it."
"For me, scalability and reliability are the product's most valuable features."
 

Cons

"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets. There are GDPR and other requirements that might require country-specific sensitive information to be filtered as well as other things that need to be taken care of. Normally, if we need to do any compliance, like ISO27000 compliance, they don't have such a report within their system. This kind of report is missing from their SaaS. That is one of the reasons that we have gone to the on-prem version, where I am assured that my data is secure."
"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."
"There might be some features in other products that are currently not there in Everest IMS and can be included. I have not yet compared it with any other product."
"I would like to have the option to add a new device or meet with the next release. Right now, it needs to be done from the backend which results in a heavy reliance on R&D."
"We have enquired if there are any possibilities of monitoring non-IPBS devices."
"Technical support could use some improvement in terms of their response times and diagnostic accuracy."
"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"I would like to see an integrated view of Infraon IMS and Infraon Desk. It would be very helpful if that were integrated into the solution."
"I wish they'd update the iOS app, which, I think, is the same version I used back in 2012 or so."
"The graphing feature needs work, although it has been rewritten in release 5.0 and we have yet to deploy it."
"There is always room for improvement, and part of the reason we're looking at Grafana is because there are things it can do that Opsview cannot do as well."
"Reload time: Although there have been major gains in the time to process reloads, I think that there is still room for improvement in this area."
"There is one feature that I've been requesting for a while now. Going back to this multi-tenancy thing, right now the tenants can't create their own service checks, so that's still a process they have to get with us."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"Some aspects of the GUI functionality need improvement."
"It's probably the priciest option of all its main competitors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost model is within our budget. I have less than 180 critical assets, but the moment that I have 1,000 assets, then the license model is totally different. I don't know whether they are capable of handling that kind of a load. They could revisit the licensing model."
"We pay for a number of devices on the accounts and since it is on-premises, we pay the maintenance charges for the year."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product. We evaluated five to six products and finally felt Infraon was better because of the pricing model, especially because it was more flexible."
"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."
"I think that the pricing for this solution is reasonable and varies by number of devices."
"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
"I would rate pricing a seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price."
"The solution is priced similarly to other tools offering similar features."
"The solution is not cheap. I think that the pricing is a little bit on the high side."
