My advice for those considering the use of SiteScope is to ensure that everyone, especially the security team, is on board from the start. You will need their support for server access and monitoring approvals, so collaboration is key. Overall, I would rate OpenText SiteScope as a seven out of ten.

As a technical person, I have to ask you some technical questions but for generic people, I can suggest you can use OpenText SiteScope as it is very easy to manage. Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.
Based on my experience, I would recommend Micro Focus SiteScope to those planning to use it in the future. The tool has good capabilities and features, but the dashboard has certain limitations that customers may find challenging. There may also be issues when using the tool on servers. Customers may face difficulties using the dashboard, and Micro Focus SiteScope has limitations in presenting some graphs and metrics. I may face a shortage if I use OBM Operations Agents. For a dashboard to present certain metrics, I use Micro Focus SiteScope even though I may face some limitations. However, the tool is easy to use and is an agentless solution. Additionally, it allows for customization to meet specific requirements. I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.
We’re partners and I am a consultant. We’re using the latest version of the solution. We have around 200 people using the solution. I’d recommend the solution to others. It's good, it's handy, it's easy to use, easy to configure, and the UI is great. I’d rate the solution an eight out of ten.
I would advise mapping out the strategy of how you want to manage or what you're going to use it for. I don't know all the functionality of the tool. We use it for three things. We use it for monitoring internal URLs. We also monitor certificate expiration dates, and we monitor some of our database queries with it. These are the three major things for which it's used, and it does them very well. It probably can be used for other things, but I have no idea what those could be. So, map out what you want to do thoroughly and when you deploy or when you're building out your collections in your folders and groups, make sure you do them as accurately as you can. That’s because it's difficult to go back and change them all. I'd rate it a seven out of ten. It's a pretty big product, and I don't know everything that it does, but it does really well on what I need it for.
Sitescope has been around for many years - since 1996 in fact. Over the years, it has become a highly stable solution. Now though, as Micro Focus now owns HPE Software (who in turn bought Mercury Interactive from where Sitescope came), Sitescope is but a small cog in a very large AIOPS engine.

We work on multiple models such as on-premises, and multiple deployments for our customers. More insight that could be shared would be very helpful. We have a great partnership with Micro Focus. I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

People should know that if they only use SiteScope, it won't be enough. They will need to get support from other tools. For example, without HM tools, without network manager tools, it will not work. They won't get the old alerts from their environment and they will be unhappy. SiteScope alone is not enough. I would rate this product a seven out of 10.
My advice to other people considering SiteScope as a solution in this category of tools is that I think SiteScope is a good product. It is definitely useful and provides a lot of value. I do not have any other advice in terms of being an end-user because all those things are not a perspective I have on the product. In general, I would recommend SiteScope. On a scale from one to ten where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate SiteScope as an eight-out-of-ten.

I would recommend the product. I would suggest that those considering implementation of the solution need to study their environment first. You need to know what you're going to do before installing SiteScope. Everything needs to be prepared. Communication metrics should be ready. If your communication metrics are not ready, then SiteScope will not work with you. Once you do, however, it will be a piece of cake. Just install it and install the mutation. I would rate the solution nine out of ten.
