Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"Now, we can simply look at the past month of data that has been collected for any customer that calls in with a problem."
"So far, as mentioned earlier, we have been able to provide graphs on at least 80,000 metrics spread across more than 10,000 devices. Enigma automatically begins monitoring interfaces that are up and active. There are a few different factors involved. This is not really configurable, but it works well enough by itself that it requires little to no maintenance."
"Enigma has a lot of specific detail coded into it for discovering and monitoring Cisco devices. If you are a Cisco shop this might be a major consideration."

Room for Improvement

"Over the years it seems Enigma's web interface has slowed down for us."
"I would also like to see Enigma move away from CentOS 6.5 and onto a more current platform, as well as away from myISAM tables to InnoDB. No improvements are being made to myISAM, and this has been the case for several years, from what I understand. So, this code is going to become more and more outdated by that virtue alone. The developers say that myISAM tables are faster. I did some reading up on it, and it seems that at one point, when InnoDB was new, it was slower than myISAM, but InnoDB has made major improvements since then."
"I would like to see dynamic grouping. For example, in our case, we have Subscriber Units that are connected to APs. These are constantly being re-homed, or pointed to a different AP on the same tower or a different tower altogether. There is an SNMP value corresponding to the AP name, and one for the AP MAC address. I would like Enigma to be able to form groups based on the AP name (or the MAC address, either one), which are dynamically changed."

Pricing

"I don’t know what the pricing is currently, but there are different price levels. We got an unlimited license, and considering what we get for the amount we paid, it’s a good deal. The other licenses are limited on number of devices (not monitors/metrics)."

These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
