We performed a comparison between BMC TrueSight Operations Management and Broadcom DX Application Performance 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: BMC TrueSight Operations Management offers advanced features such as proactive monitoring, an event management tool, and Helix Innovation Studio, in addition to a consolidated dashboard, making it the preferred solution. Although Broadcom DX is easy to deploy and offers code-level visibility, it lacks integration between tools, has performance issues, and needs improvement in support and compatibility. BMC TrueSight Operations Management also has a transparent licensing model, unlike Broadcom DX, which has a monthly licensing fee that some users find expensive.
"It provides common administration, and a Single Sign-On Platform with RBAC, which eases the cross launch between multiple tools"
"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."
"Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale."
"The fact that they have a very integrated relationship with Sentry Software, the Knowledge Module, is valuable... The richest feature for us is the number of Knowledge Modules that we can load into the product to add breadth of service to the customer. It enables us to move up the operational stack from hardware, to operating system, to application, and to cloud... That enables us to provide one pane of glass over all those layers - hardware, OS, app, and cloud."
"We can verify uptimes as another source of keeping devices in compliance."
"I believe that the ease of use and UI is great"
"I like the deep-dive detail and end-user metrics data. The synthetic monitor is the best one. The best point of the new one is that there's no need for configuration. You can inject the Java script and start to change major developments in the application. This is a good approach, and we received all the data using this."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution."
"Scalable, stable, and easy to deploy APM tool which effectively monitors code-level visibility."
"We are using the on-premise and cloud versions of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management."
"Service maturity when you can retrieve the normal metrics for every major aspect of each module and delivering this info to the correct eyes."
"The most valuable feature of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management for me is transaction monitoring. The technical support provided for the solution is also an advantage."
"Cross-platform business transaction tracing supports the ability to monitor end-to-end performance across the stack, providing granular insight into customer experience KPIs, which are a critical success factor for organizations."
"The configuration and the manager tool are good features."
"It's a very stable product."
"Application performance management (APM) is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement. I"
"The solution is overly complex."
"The stability of BMC TrueSight Operations Management needs improvement. My organization's infrastructure is vast and implemented based on BMC recommendations, but the solution needs to be optimized for large-capacity infrastructure."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"BMC's online documentation is often incorrect or incomplete."
"It would be better if the initial setup and deployment were more straightforward."
"Deployment requires lots of resources (servers). It has too many consoles."
"The UI for the end users could be improved and more flexible than it is now."
"Needs the ability to dynamically create dashboards. Right now, we do custom dashboards. Everything is created manually."
"Java Console uses too much memory."
"Needs custom dashboards."
"The upgrade was complex. The documentation could have been a little bit better, but other than that, it was okay."
"Documentation needs to be centralized."
"Its profiling. The uniqueness instead of me looking at sampling data, I need to know the m-1 event that actually triggered my scenario where that m event caused a catastrophic event, like a ripple effect; I need to know that m-1. What triggered my major event means I need to understand the event that triggered it and before the cause of that event itself."
"The initial setup is complex."
"We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure."
