Unified monitoring has improved event handling but needs stronger AI automation and modern dashboards
OpenText AI Operations Management could benefit from a fully integrated AI system, which we call AIOps. A fully integrated AI operations system would be valuable in the future. Additionally, the UI experience could be more comfortable. We are not using predictive features in OpenText AI Operations Management such as anomaly detection. In the future, we may be able to operate with our customer, but we need to decide this collectively. You need to see the big picture and understand what the customer's pain points are to find the right tuning. Normally, predictive features can be more useful, but this is an end-to-end solution that needs to be customized. You need to understand the exact customer needs. The predictive analytics feature is very close to being integrated, but it is not fully integrated at this time.

Automation has improved alerts and file handling but script-based setup still needs simplification
OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence is the automation tool I use. I think OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence is good for creating complex rules because it's coding, but it takes time to learn how to use it. OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence works well if you know the syntax very well and you have experience in creating scripts or REXX syntax; it would be very good and is a good tool, but it takes time to learn, so that is for experienced staff to work with. I would rate the product a six from one to ten. I cannot think of any additional features in the next release of OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"It is stable."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with everything."
"HPE helped us aggregate, and we now have all these layers in one layer, so we are looking at the service from the core of it, not from a resource perspective or from an IT, servers-based perspective."
"I've found the solution to be very scalable."
"It is a very good solution for event management and agent-based monitoring."
"It's very scalable and it does seem capable of accepting the volume."
"We switched for the added features, better scalability, overall experience, and better resolution to end of life issues."
"It's very secure, because it's a legacy application."
"I do not have to keep recordings. It is there and is proactive. It helps the operators, human editors, and me."
"OPSMVS has made it possible to run our IT systems with fewer staff, due to the level of automation that we are able to use."
"OPS/REXX is valuable because it allows us almost unlimited flexibility in automating our system."
"OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence works well if you know the syntax very well and you have experience in creating scripts or REXX syntax; it would be very good and is a good tool, but it takes time to learn, so that is for experienced staff to work with."
"The benefits are the ability to do monitoring on your mainframe systems exactly the way you want to do it."
"The documentation is simple, easy to follow, and use. A limited, first-time systems programmer can do it, in that it is out-of-the-box almost functional."
"In terms of performance, it is the gold standard in mainframe automation."
 

Cons

"Implementation could be improved. We also need training and a good partner in order to install and configure it."
"The initial setup is not exactly straightforward. It's complex as it's not just one product."
"Depending on where you land, if you get stuck in generic level-two support, then it’s quite uninspiring – that’s probably the best description."
"I'm not aware of areas that need improvement."
"The predictive analytics feature is very close to being integrated, but it is not fully integrated at this time."
"The dashboards from OpenText Operations Bridge, when compared to those from Splunk, are less visually appealing."
"It can run a little slow if not configured correctly or if a customer doesn't use it properly."
"Installing and upgrading the HPOM and Operations Agent software is not always easy and the process can be quite fragile. Once it is running, it is very quick and stable, but an upgrade can quite easily break something or terminate unexpectedly."
"My impressions on OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence is that it's quite difficult to use, as it relies mainly on the coding syntax and doesn't provide an easy-to-use GUI."
"Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day."
"With stability, sometimes we do have problems with this product."
"It was a complex setup in the mainframe environment."
"The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better."
"I think, for me, I’d like to see more of its web base."
"The only issue we have is when we try to integrate with common services."
"Because of its age, it's a little bit difficult to modernize some of the integrations and some of the functions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is competitive."
"Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."
"As OpsBridge is a suite of products bundled together, you may find yourself paying for software functionality that you don't actually use, e.g. Real User Monitor (RUM)."
"The licensing model for Micro Focus Operations Bridge is unit-based so it can be one device or ten devices depending on your situation or model. Cost-wise, it's much more if you have more devices and features such as infrastructure monitoring, analytic dashboard, and business dashboard in your model."
"The cost is very high."
"The licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."
"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
