We performed a comparison between Azure Monitor and BMC TrueSight Operations Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Azure Monitor is the preferred option due to its ease of setup, low-cost pricing, and integration with other Microsoft technologies. It also provides a more convenient and efficient solution for developers by offering a one-stop place to monitor all cloud resources across multiple subscriptions in one dashboard. BMC TrueSight Operations Management has valuable features, but needs improvement in areas such as cloud monitoring, reporting dashboards, and pricing.
"The solution's most valuable features are its ability to focus on delivery and maximizing the performance of applications and services."
"One of the most useful aspects of this solution is the out-of-the-box functionality on all areas, especially on Application Insights, zero instrumentation, and artificial intelligence for event correlation."
"It's a service from Microsoft, so it will scale."
"The dashboard allows us to easily track various metrics and quickly understand the overall health of our system."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the alert system, which can be set according to our metrics. The integration is smooth."
"Azure Monitor is really just a source for Dynatrace. It's just collecting data and monitoring the environment and the infrastructure. It is fairly good at that."
"The most valuable features of Azure Monitor are the login analytics workspace and we can write any kind of custom queries in order to receive the data that is inserted into the login analytics workspace, diagnostic settings, et cetera."
"Technical support is good and helpful...The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"The noise reduction for ticketing works much better than we have seen in a lot of other companies."
"I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data. The synthetic monitor is the best one. The best point of the new one is that there's no need for configuration. You can inject the Java script and start to change major developments in the application. This is a good approach, and we received all the data using this."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"The most valuable features of BMC TrueSight Operations Management are the blackouts and event management."
"The tailoring of the knowledge modules has been particularly useful as I can streamline the agents to only report on critical events."
"What I like best about BMC TrueSight Operations Management is that it allows you to do granular monitoring and improves VM load."
"have used multiple products like Webex and PRTG. Some features could be added. Azure Monitor should add SMS and APIs. We have very limited access to Azure Monitor. I usually get alerts on my phone when they are integrated with Slack. I am not always available, but my team is. Sometimes, I am traveling and don't have access to my email, but I have Slack and other third-party projects that send me instant messages if a sensor goes down."
"Azure Monitor is not user-friendly, and the interface is not exciting. Switching between the dashboards is not easy."
"In terms of pricing, Azure Monitor's billing based on data size can sometimes lead to increased costs, especially when developers need to purge data frequently. While there are mechanisms in place to track and manage this, there is room for improvement in terms of optimizing data pausing and related processes. Enhancements in this area could help mitigate potential billing concerns and provide a more seamless experience for users."
"Currently, it seems it's complicated to get the correct information in terms of what to do and how things work."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"They need to work on a more hybrid deployment that will allow us to monitor local on-premise deployments and connect to different systems. I would like to see more integration."
"The monitoring of Kubernetes clusters needs improvement to be on par with competitors."
"The solution's monitoring feature has limitations for analyzing multiple metrics."
"The solution is overly complex."
"It's too complex, too many servers are required, there are too many different components in the solution, and a lot of agents are required."
"Deployment requires lots of resources (servers). It has too many consoles."
"The stability of BMC TrueSight Operations Management needs improvement. My organization's infrastructure is vast and implemented based on BMC recommendations, but the solution needs to be optimized for large-capacity infrastructure."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"The graphs are extremely limited. We don't have a lot of dashboard options. To make reports and dashboards more useful, we usually need to integrate some dashboard solutions."
"The solution is a little obsolete."
"I definitely would like to see more improvement in the self-diagnostics. I need to know when anything is not working or collecting, long before our customer finds it."
