Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"Alert aggregation was the primary requirement. BigPanda pulls all this together into a single UI for us, allowing us to see related alerts grouped together into an incident, and enables us to easily create a JIRA ticket and Slack channel to manage an issue."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"The most useful feature has been the AI/ML. The way BigPanda uses the AI/ML is good compared to other SRE tools."
"One of the most valuable features of BigPanda is its user-friendly interface."
"A user-friendly solution."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"From our monitoring perspective or from a visibility perspective, HPE UCMDB is a must have. It's an amazing piece of software."
"I find the Micro Focus Operations Bridge dashboard valuable, including its instrument analysis and anomaly control features that help indicate root causes and problems with your infrastructure."
"The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature."
"We haven't faced any stability issues. There hasn't been any crashes or glitches."
"The preloaded rules and ways to monitor your systems are a must."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's not complex at all."
"OpsBridge has good event correlation facilities and root-cause identification algorithms."
"Purely, its flexibility is the most valuable aspect. It is hugely configurable."
"BigPanda can improve the correlations. We didn't see any big value. It is still good at the same event deduplication, event processing, and ticket creation, but I was more looking at event analysis and event correlation. In that area, it is still no big difference between the other solutions on the market. All of them, are in the same immature stage."
"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"The cost of this product is too high compared to New Relic."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"Lacks sufficient dashboard features."
"BigPanda could improve by syncing its threshold settings with Dynatrace to align with users' familiarity."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"I know that in the next version, X1005, they're moving to more graphical overviews, which should help our senior managers."
"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"Our issues are largely support related due to where we are and the knowledge base that we have here. This issue relates both HPE in general and to the technical products."
"The price is quite expensive, and because of this, we may try another solution."
"Installing and upgrading the HPOM and Operations Agent software is not always easy and the process can be quite fragile. Once it is running, it is very quick and stable, but an upgrade can quite easily break something or terminate unexpectedly."
"Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering."
"The service takes a very long time to start and it requires a lot of resources."
