Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable feature is performance monitoring."
"When it comes to the ability to scale up the product, this is suitable for small medium and large environments,"
"It provides us with complete visibility of every packet."
"With some APM solutions, it can take a long time to check a periodic report, but you can get all the necessary details quickly with AppResponse."
"Ability to see end to end user, application, server, and network response time and throughput data."
"We really like the scalability capabilities."
"AppResponse is a total solution that gives you end-to-end visibility into applications at all levels, from Layer 1 to Layer 7. We can trace all those sections: physical, IP, transport, presentation, application, etc. It gives us the full picture."
"The most valuable feature of Alluvio AppResponse is the actual response time for measuring performance."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of Windows and Linux servers."
"It takes a lot of the headache out of managing your data centers and software in other places."
"The product has helped our organization with in-depth monitoring."
"The most valuable feature of SCOM is the capability of using classes within your management pack development."
"I like some of their newer features, such as maintenance schedules, because SCOM records SLA and SLO time."
"We have found the scalability capabilities to be okay."
"SCOM's most valuable features are the network path feature, reporting, and integration with business intelligence."
"Availability monitoring is the feature I have found most valuable, as well as the capacity and ability to send notifications."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Need to bring back the NetFlow module for AppResponse."
"Alluvio AppResponse should improve its ability to expand across multiple operating systems."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive."
"Integration between NPM and APM solutions would improve efficiency. There is no agent on the server site related to AppResponse."
"The pricing is on the higher side of things. If they could lower it, that would be ideal."
"The initial setup is straightforward, but you have to know a little about the product. It's not for everybody to just plug and play. If you know how the solution is implemented then it is straightforward."
"If Alluvio AppResponse reduces its cost, it will be more beneficial for customers to monitor their application and network performance."
"The AI features should be addressed in respect of the analysis and intelligence that must be supported and delivered in the tool to predigest the large amounts of data."
"I would like more customized reports. People should have some customization option on the dashboards for whenever they put multiple lists into it. Beyond customizing the content, there should be the ability to customize the colors so that they can engage some priority and mark challenges separately."
"Of course, price is always an issue with Microsoft and could be improved."
"Third-party tools have had to be created to make SCOM management pack creation more efficient and effective. However, this weighs down the application as it just adds a resource requirement, which is ballooning the size of the necessary storage and all that for essentially substandard components."
"The solution’s initial setup is difficult."
"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."
"I would like to see better support for monitoring Unix-based systems."
"It'll help if they can provide real-time or closer to real-time monitoring."
"The console feature is very poor, and it would be very good for us if this were improved."
