Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The major advantage of the product is estate management."
"I like everything about this tool. I recommend this solution to anyone looking for a standalone solution with high availability meaning that can be used depending on the customers requirements."
"It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"The solution's event management capabilities are fantastic. We do a best of breed. If, on the network side, they use a different tool, we pull all that data in so that we have a single console. It's kind of like the monitor of monitors. We're able to aggregate all the different types of data sets, whether it's log data, app data, OS data, infrastructure data, or network data. We're able to aggregate all those events and then correlate and be able to say we're having an event."
"The ability of this platform to monitor the very diverse assets that we maintain around the world is its most valuable feature... We support a vast array of manufacturers' equipment, like HP, IBM, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Hitachi... We can do it all with [this] one [solution]."
"The tailoring of the knowledge modules has been particularly useful as I can streamline the agents to only report on critical events."
"It allows our operations team to have one single application to reference when investigating issues in our environment."
"InfoVista 5View NetFlow allows us to control the application layer and manage API connections, i.e. Facebook logins or whatever other third-party API services we require."
"The solution is a little obsolete."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities. The data collection server called the ISM doesn't really have the HA functionality or workload balancing. It was missing from the previous product as well. It's missing redundancy."
"We were somewhat limited in TrueSight due to some of the RBAC controls not quite being what we wanted as far as delegating out administrative privileges for implementation. But because we were able to turn requests around pretty well, that burden wasn't too heavy."
"The knowledge modules could be more lightweight in size. At present, the installation packages can be quite large."
"More modules for less popular applications and better documentation."
"The solution could improve its price."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could use some enhancements in the application visibility tools."
"In our company, we faced some issues with the solution’s application endpoint, IP, and the physical location of the transactions."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
