Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Easy integration - We've had challenges in the past integrating all of our various monitoring sources and tools into one central system. BigPanda, with the integrations that it already has, as well as offering webhook/REST API, has made it very easy for us to plug everything in."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"Alert aggregation was the primary requirement. BigPanda pulls all this together into a single UI for us, allowing us to see related alerts grouped together into an incident, and enables us to easily create a JIRA ticket and Slack channel to manage an issue."
"The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"BigPanda integrates well with other solutions, such as WatchGuard,"
"We have also made extensive use of the outbound integrations to ticketing systems (JIRA) and collaboration tools (Slack). The main driver for us has been getting all alerting into a single UI and enabling us to streamline our incident management process."
"The most valuable features of BigPanda are the API integration was good. It enables us to do faster onboarding."
"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"It is very scalable."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"Analytics is an area for improvement, being able to break down the actions that are being taken by users of BigPanda, as well as the auto-magical work that is being done by BigPanda."
"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"The cost of this product is too high compared to New Relic."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"We had to use a partner for the deployment."
"Our infrastructure is quite large - tens of thousands of servers, often with 30-plus checks running on each host with one minute intervals. This generates a lot of data often in bursts (when we have a large scale failure). This has caused some delay in the ingestion pipeline."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"We had to do some work to make what was more of a business class solution work at an enterprise level."
