Offers different levels of notification options, including WhatsApp integration
Opsgenie has been most valuable in managing our incident response. We use Opsgenie for on-call management of AWS services, and its integration with CloudWatch has been particularly beneficial. Opsgenie alerts us to anomalies in cloud services, not just incidents but also performance issues like delayed response times or execution errors. So, we will quickly know about the issue, and it allows us to take swift action. It has been very helpful to us. Opsgenie's strength lies in its configurable alerting levels, from first responders to escalation managers. It offers different levels of notification options, including WhatsApp integration, ensuring timely alerts to the relevant team members. We also use the on-call scheduling feature. It is easy to use. The on-call scheduling feature is user-friendly and easily integrates with our existing systems, streamlining schedule management without added complexity.

The installation process is the first aspect I dislike about Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). If you do not configure it correctly, you will encounter issues in the search head. Because we use a distributed environment where each component has its own specific roles, installation is critical and requires careful attention. Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) is built with many applications. It is a compressed file, and when you extract the Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) app, you receive approximately 19 apps. Some applications, add-ons, and packages must be installed on specific components. If you do not configure an application correctly, it will not work. Sometimes we encounter issues during installation because of this complexity. I believe the installation process should be more uniform, meaning it could be deployed across all components to avoid post-installation issues. Sometimes after installation, you receive errors, and users cannot access Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). We have experienced this type of issue due to installation errors. I believe there is currently room for improvement regarding scalability. When we create Glass Tables containing many searches, the Glass Tables sometimes fail due to memory constraints, and we receive error pages. Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) should have a lightweight version to address these concerns. I would rate current scalability as medium.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The integration feature is the most valuable. It provides a lot of customizations for the integrations we use."
"One of the features my team found valuable in Opsgenie is the alert. There's also the option to install an app on your phone, so even if you don't have any mobile reception, but you're still connected to WiFi, you still get the alerts via the app, not just via phone call or SMS. The combination of both options was very useful because sometimes you have data and you don't have coverage by mobile, or vice versa. To have both options in terms of receiving alerts was very useful. Another valuable feature of Opsgenie is the on-call rotation with alerts. I belonged to a small team of three, then the team expanded into four members where everyone was on a weekly on-call basis, with each team member having a week of being on-call. At first, it was a bi-weekly on-call rotation, then it became once every three weeks, and after that, it was once every four weeks, so the on-call rotation with an alert feature was useful. My previous company had two separate environments, on the cloud and on-premises. My team was in charge of the on-premise environment, so there was a queue for my team with everything in Opsgenie, then the DevOps team had its queue on a group of infrastructure related to the cloud. Each team had its own devices organized in a group that was only managed per team. The on-call rotation was also separated between groups. Opsgenie is a very convenient solution for both teams in my previous company."
"The solution has helped us stay alert on incidents and improved our response times."
"The product is integrated into almost all services, including Grafana, AWS, and others."
"One of the reasons for implementing OpsGenie was to have a completely automated system where there is no need to monitor and call someone if something breaks down."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically create a ticket for the support team when there is an alert."
"We can rely on the product to organize our schedules. We don't have to think about who will be next on-call. The system already gives us the answer. We don't have to waste time organizing how people are going to be covering each of their rotations. There's also an override option. So, it's easy to reschedule or reorganize our schedules when someone goes on vacation or when someone is on sick leave."
"If you are using Atlassian products, Opsgenie is the best choice because the features are the same and it is bundled with Jira Service Management."
"I find the episode review, glass tables, and correlation search features very useful."
"From my experience of working with Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) for two years, the most beneficial aspect for me is that it is AI-enabled, providing us with very good analytics."
"Instant usability of gathered event metrics is available. We have metrics data from systems, and we can use that to instantly get system status and trends."
"Real-time indexing in Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) has helped me by requiring me to take actions as soon as possible before the customer even notices the issue."
"Customers have noted the solution helps streamline incident management."
"The solution is easy to scale."
"The most valuable features are the mapping of the entities, which provides a comprehensive analysis, and the service analyzer for thresholding."
"Alerts and episodes are valuable to me."
 

Cons

"We can't rely on the output that we're getting from the platform."
"We are using the cloud version of Atlassian products now, but I think the Data Center version we used earlier was much more user-friendly. There are lots of limitations in the cloud version The add-on or features that work with the Data Center versions are not compatible with the cloud version."
"I would like to see reports that can provide us with integration with Jira or with another management solution, which I'm not sure Opsgenie provides. The integration is possible, however as Opsgenie reports is an area that needs to be addressed. An alert is received, and Opsgenie will immediately generate a ticket or card for that issue, track it, and provide a follow-up. Opsgenie will also track an issue's whole life cycle. This is something that I would like to see in Opsgenie."
"The solution has room for improvement by providing bundle pricing with other products that are frequently used together from Atlassian."
"Initially, Opsgenie had bidirectional integration with Jira Service Management, but that functionality has been scaled back. Previously, Opsgenie was adept at managing incidents within its ecosystem, offering seamless ticket transfers between Opsgenie and Jira Service Desk. I valued the ability to push tickets between the two platforms, addressing the need for widespread information accessibility, though it sometimes led to duplication. My suggestion would be to reintroduce complete ticket funneling between these systems to streamline operations."
"It should also come with cloud integrations, which are not that great with OpsGenie as of now."
"The installation of other applications is difficult in Opsgenie. I would like to see more flexible reporting methodologies. Scalability and pricing also need to be improved."
"I would like to see improvements in reporting capabilities that could provide additional value."
"One of the main downsides is the complexity of configuration and maintenance, especially when dealing with large-scale environments."
"Occasionally, we have faced some slowness, which we reported to Splunk, and those issues were promptly resolved."
"The biggest improvement area is making it open to developers. Right now, it is very closed. It can only be downloaded by people who have a license to and not everyone. If it is open to everybody, more people will use it."
"The user interface visualization could be improved."
"The data recovery has room for improvement."
"I believe the refresh time should be faster."
"It would be advantageous to enhance the dashboard by incorporating sections for monitoring, service health, and a filter for the KPIs."
"Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) can be improved because there are some events that get missed in indexing, especially on the stats and AC stats."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In the company I'm working for, currently, we are using the standard edition of Opsgenie. We're paying around $3,000 a month. It's a bit expensive compared to the other tools we use for different purposes. We find it a bit expensive because although Opsgenie is a complete tool for monitoring, it does not provide us with everything."
"The pricing is fine. I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with one being high price and ten being low price."
"I'm not the person who dealt with Opsgenie in terms of pricing, and I don't know how the solution compares to other solutions in the market, price-wise. I won't be able to say if it gives you the best value for money or not, but if Opsgenie gives good value for money, then I don't see a reason why you shouldn't use it."
"We have opted for a yearly subscription. The initial quote given was about $29, but I don't know the actual price. There might be some negotiations during renewal."
"The cost of the solution depends on the package you select and is per user."
"I rate Opsgenie eight out of 10 for affordability. Opsgenie is on the cheaper side, and it fits our budget. I estimate the license costs around $400 to 500 annually for 15 users. The price is available on the internet. It's a standard, straightforward price."
"The pricing is on the lower side; I would rate it a six out of ten, with ten being low price, which indicates good affordability."
"The solution's prices are exorbitant."
"It would have been good if the product cost was much lower."
"Splunk is pretty expensive, but it gives you a decent insight into the data. It is easy to learn, and ITSI has a great interface. You can run those queries and pass the data. I"
"The cost of the modules is a bit high for non-global companies, making it difficult for them to afford Splunk ITSI."
"Splunk ITSI is a premium application and comes with a premium price tag."
"Its pricing has been changed as per the market. You get a good support service with it as well. They have 24/7 customer support. There is a portal, and if you are having issues, they are available in order to resolve them. So, its pricing isn't too much."
"I would prefer that the price be reduced, as it would be easier to implement it and to sell it."
"Splunk ITSI is expensive."
"Pricing has some room for improvement."
