Good stability but it is lacking the ability to see historical information

Researched IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON but chose OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence: Individual rules for various events can be updated in flight without bouncing the product.
OPSMVS has made it possible to run our IT systems with fewer staff, due to the level of automation that we are able to use. This does mean that... Read more →

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The report writer in TMON is a very good add-on for batch reports which weren't available in OmegaMon/CICS."

"It's stable enough. I haven't noticed any problems since it was installed."

More IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON Pros →

"It's very flexible. You can customize what you need to, which is good. For example, you can do your own coding inside the tool, make your own scripting tooling.""OPS/REXX is valuable because it allows us almost unlimited flexibility in automating our system.""Once automatic IPL has been defined, anyone can perform an IPL with very little intervention. We know that all of the components will be started correctly.""If something breaks and it goes down when it's not supposed to, automation brings it right back up.""The performance of it is beyond exceptional. It is probably one of the best products that I have ever worked with. It is easy to use, comprehensive, and can perform almost any task you need it to.""Because we can define complex commands, the training of new operators is quicker. We can also put checks in place, that will prevent user errors.""Stability is probably the best out-of-the-box. Put it in, set it up, and you leave it alone. It works wonderfully.""​The service has been wonderful. I like the people that I have had to deal with. The process is very straightforward. I call or use the website."

Cons
"We're like it to be possible to move some more workload to our ZIIP processors to save us some billing for general workload."

More ASG TMON Cons →

"We can't see the percentages to see the percentages of the CPU utilized. We should be able to see how much was used by our part of the system. Now, we have to continuously recalculate that information."

More IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON Cons →

"The further expansion of the mainframe teamcenter interface. Also, the web services support is something that I am looking into.""Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day.""​It’s a complex product. The initial installation is easy, but implementing various functions is a constant process.​""The reason sometimes it is not stable, we do not have the expertise to write the script.​""The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better. CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented.""Because of its age, it's a little bit difficult to modernize some of the integrations and some of the functions.""Some of the command sequences are too long.""It definitely needs more web-based interface, to be more mobile-open. More APIs, more open source to it."
