"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"One of the most valuable features of BigPanda is its user-friendly interface."

"The most valuable features of BigPanda are the API integration was good. It enables us to do faster onboarding."
"Alert deduplication and correlation - In an environment like the NOC where you're ingesting hundreds and thousands of alerts from various monitoring sources, it's time consuming and difficult to go through individual alerts and also difficult to spot critical issues. It's been great to have BigPanda not only deduplicate alerts but also correlate alerts that are seemingly unrelated, to create a clearer picture."
"It is flexible. You can tune it, more or less, as you want."
"I like the tool's discovery feature."
"The asset management tools are very valuable."

"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"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."
"Analytics is an area for improvement, being able to break down the actions that are being taken by users of BigPanda, as well as the auto-magical work that is being done by BigPanda."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"The cost of this product is too high compared to New Relic."
"There are not enough apps in the app store to expand functionality. There should be more made available."
"The solution's licensing model is a bit complicated. It should be simple and easy for people to understand."
"ServiceNow IT Operations Management could be improved by providing more user customization options."
"The most complaints we have received from our clients are the solution's discovery aspect. I've heard a few concerns from the customers where we have to integrate with a third-party tool to make a full-fledged discovery along with ServiceNow. ServiceNow alone does not do the total capacity of the discovery. The discovery portion of ServiceNow IT Operations Management is not in-depth as what the customers are looking for. The information that it gathers from the assets is a little more limited than what other tools provide."
"There is a slower learning curve associated with the tool's scripting part. It is also not cheap."
"An area for improvement for ServiceNow IT Operations Management is making service mapping and discovery easier for non-IP devices."
"Regarding ServiceNow, there is room for improvement in terms of customization, particularly in the area of self-customization."
"I would like more manual issues to have automated report-facing options."
