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.
"Azure Monitor is very stable."
"The most valuable feature is the universality of their functionalities in all Azure services, including, software solutions."
"I am monitoring all of my Azure Monitor and getting good reports. I can customize the reports to get the information I need. I am also getting emails about which AAS instances are down and everything in the system related to my services. It is easy to use, scalable, and user-friendly. Microsoft has Many guides and videos to help you understand how to create and use Azure Monitor."
"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 solution works well overall. It's easy to implement and simple to use."
"Azure Monitor is useful because of the useful application insights and telemetry, such as metrics and logs."
"Provides an overview and high-level information."
"The tools for logs and metrics are pretty good and easy to use."
"The event management part of TrueSight Operations Management, in my experience, is probably the best in the market. You have endless flexibility. You can build your own rules, you have the MRL language, and you can implement any kind of logic on the alerts. It may be correlation, abstraction, or executing something as a result of the alerts. You have almost the whole range of options available for event management using the available customization."
"From an administrative standpoint, what stands out in TrueSight is the ability to implement quickly. When they have a requirement to monitor something, we're able to turn that on quickly in their environment. We're able to set up new apps within a day."
"The major advantage of the product is estate management."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"This solution has fewer features than some of its competitors, so adding more features to it would make it better."
"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."
"The query builder could be better. In comparison to other monitoring tools, in order to use Azure Monitor, your engineers need to have KQL experience. If they don't, it's not intuitive as a system."
"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."
"In my opinion, they should improve the overall user experience, especially when it comes to indexing and searching collective logs."
"The default interface should be improved."
"Currently, it seems it's complicated to get the correct information in terms of what to do and how things work."
"The solution should improve predicting events and flaws in service. It also needs to improve integration with other systems."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."
"The pricing could be better."
"The UI for the end users could be improved and more flexible than it is now."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"The product must provide more AI capabilities."
"I would really like to see out-of-the-box support for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies."
