"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"Power packs."
"It discovers the components automatically, which is a fantastic thing. The discovery works in an automatic way, and it has a dynamic way of discovering the components, assets, and applications. It doesn't require any manual intervention."
"I like some of their newer features, such as maintenance schedules, because SCOM records SLA and SLO time."
"I like the historical reporting of observer metrics."
"The solution primarily drives system information, and I believe it works fine."
"This solution satisfies all of the requirements that we need for our Windows-based systems, so if you are using the Windows platform then this is an easy solution."
"We have found the scalability capabilities to be okay."
"This is a product that does more generally than any of the competing solutions."
"The solution's reporting engine has given me detailed information on which applications or services I've either failed or about to fail in terms of the predictive makeup on Azure cloud."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"They need a little more self-service."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box standard dashboards for common services."
"It could use some system enhancements, such as better dashboards."
"They can focus more on cloud monitoring instead of on-premise monitoring. We should be able to monitor cloud-related applications. They can include this feature in the next release. If it is in the cloud, we can have scalability by using Kubernetes. The container is containerized, packaged, and managed using Kubernetes. This feature is not there in SCOM. Going forward, if they can focus on that, it will be great."
"The management of the servers could be better."
"SCOM needs to improve its usability."
"Direct integration with third-party tools, like ticketing systems, is lacking but would be beneficial."
"Regarding certain issues in the solution, it can be difficult to generate reports if we have a program that is not user-friendly for reporting. While this is not necessarily negative, we may need to use another solution."
"On-prem network monitoring is something that could be improved drastically."
"Then there is also an issue with capacity and limited space. That is something that needs to be improved."
