Elastic Observability is commended for its cost-effectiveness, licensing advantages, and extensive range of features, including machine learning capabilities. Users find it easy to deploy and customize. Overall, organizations have experienced positive outcomes and cost savings with Elastic Observability.
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"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."
"It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"It is a stable solution."
"I use the solution to monitor servers, databases, Windows, Linux, and web services."
"The most valuable features of BMC TrueSight Operations Management are the blackouts and event management."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"It is a powerful tool that allows users to collect and transform logs as needed, enabling flexible visualization and analysis."
"The solution allows us to dig deep into data."
"It has always been a stable solution."
"We use AppDynamics and Elastic. The reason why we're using Elastic APM is because of the license count. It's very favorable compared to AppDynamics. It's inexpensive; it's economical."
"The architecture and system's stability are simple."
"Good design and easy to use once implemented."
"Elastic APM has plenty of features, such as the Elastic server for Kibana and many additional plugins. It's a comprehensive tool when used as a logging platform."
"I have built a mini business intelligence system based on Elastic Observability."
"It would be better if the initial setup and deployment were more straightforward."
"We were somewhat limited in TrueSight due to some of the RBAC controls not quite being what we wanted as far as delegating out administrative privileges for implementation. But because we were able to turn requests around pretty well, that burden wasn't too heavy."
"Application performance management (APM) is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement. I"
"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."
"I definitely would like to see more improvement in the self-diagnostics. I need to know when anything is not working or collecting, long before our customer finds it."
"The pricing could be better."
"The solution is overly complex."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities. Where you can train your artificial intelligence operations to be able to memorize an issue once you encounter one scenario, so if you encounter that same problem, you can get to the root cause very quickly."
"The solution needs to use more AI. Once the product onboards AI, users would more effectively be able to track endpoints for specific messages."
"The interface could be improved."
"If we had some pre-defined templates for observability that we could start using right away after deploying it – instead of having to build or to change some of the dashboards – that would be helpful."
"The auto-discovery isn't nearly as good. That's a big portion of it. When you drop the agent onto the JVM and you're trying to figure things out, having to go through and manually do all that is cumbersome."
"The solution would be better if it was capable of more automation, especially in a monitoring capacity or for the response to abnormalities."
"They need more skills in the market. There are not enough skills in the market. It is not pervasive enough on the market, in my opinion. In other words, there isn't a big enough user base."
"Elastic Observability needs to have better standardization, logging, and schema."
"The tool's scalability involves a more complex implementation process. It requires careful calculations to determine the number of nodes needed, the specifications of each node, and the configuration of hot, warm, and cold zones for data storage. Additionally, managing log retention policies adds further complexity. The solution's pricing also needs to be cheaper."
