"Defining thresholds and other alerting criteria is fairly simple and would not require a lot of training. This is very useful if you are managing a large environment.""The solution is easy to deploy. It's also easy to manage and monitor the environment. Instead of being reactive, it's proactive.""The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great.""I liked Network Configuration Manager. They had some pretty decent features there, and they also had pretty good monitoring and alerts.""It is easy to use and deploy.""Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status.""The setup was easy.""The most valuable feature is the monitoring alerts.

Cons
"We need to see incident reports about the event log, without events from the administrator or through human interaction.""Sometimes, if there are changes made by a user on a database server, it can be difficult to get that information on the fly. I would like to see a situation where once I specify a user with the database server I need, and with the changes they have performed on that, I don't need to continue my search pattern to drill down just to get the information.""Fortinet FortiSIEM is a little out of sight and needs more marketing efforts to be popular in the market.""They need to integrate better with Cisco and Palo Alto.""They should enhance the solution's AI capabilities, including XDR and EDR.""Our customers are noticing configuration available in the GUI interface and I think that they should be equal.""The UI could improve in Fortinet FortiSIEM. Humans view the UI frequently for data and if it was more visually pleasing it would be beneficial.""I would like to see more integration with other platforms."

"OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster.""We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved.""This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance.""We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly.""The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance.""The dashboard has some limitations and should be more user-friendly.""The pricing of the solution is high. They should work to adjust the pricing model to see if they can help reduce costs.""With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
