We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The best thing about TrueSight is the user interface, which is intuitive and easy to use. It supports accessibility and exporting, so we can output to the format we require. We can use TrueSight to integrate nearly any other product. I can't think of another product that can match this functionality. We also have Microsoft Orchestrator, but it can't match BMC TrueSight Orchestration.""This solution is scalable.""We particularly like the integration functionality of this solution. This product is open API, which means that it can be integrated with any solution from any other brand.""The automation helps in payment transactions through BHIM app. The BMC helps in smooth clearance of all payments without using MasterCard or Visa. The solution is ready to use, and there is no need for customization or resources. We can complete integration over cloud and on-premise, and even using mainframes. The automation are secure through BMC TrueSight Orchestration.""I find the provisioning to be the most valuable.""We can implement compliance standards with the solution. You can also do patching so that the environment is compliant and secure from external threats and hacking. We can provision multiple systems with the help of predefined templates that the organization has forwarded us. The solution’s users can also integrate multiple products which can be either BMC or non-BMC. There are numerous possibilities that can be done with server automation""The best feature of BMC TrueSight Orchestration is the number of integrated mechanisms it provides.""The product has a very good triggering mechanism."

"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the workflow creation.""It is the most cost-effective method for moving data between machines.""Technical support is helpful.""The storage motion is a good feature. It is a very good tool.""The open, flexible architecture has brought in the agile computing environment along with better Dr capabilities.

Cons
"At present this solution is only available to be hosted on-premises, which can cause network issues when integration with cloud-based software is attempted.""The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated. It creates a lot of problems in our environment. Most of the time I am trying to find and solve the problem.""The solution should move to the cloud. Every application from the BMC is on the container and moving to the cloud. There is also a number of limitations for the smart reporting feature of the TrueSight server which is not working in sync. We did not get any satisfactory reply from BMC on that note. We are not able to do the real-time sync between HSA and non-HSA service reporting tools and the actual application tools.""The solution is not user-friendly.""Regarding scalability, the architecture does not allow you to add additional servers just able to use two application servers, so it's not scalable.""We are aiming for AI automation and look for support from BMC. The features are currently missing but we are hoping for some upgrade in this matter.""BMC TrueSight Orchestration is difficult to understand. It's not very user-friendly.""BMC TrueSight Orchestration could improve by providing some visibility on how the workflows are progressing."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration Cons →

"This is an expensive solution.""A feature to review and setup tasks should be added.""The scalability option provided by the solution is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Its technical support team takes a long time to escalate the issues.""I would like to see better performance.""I believe vCenter Orchestrator should be part of VMware vSphere's basic bundle. As a product, vCenter Orchestrator should not be licensed at all because the world has progressed way beyond what it can offer.""The solution's price could be cheaper.""I would like to see, from within the Web Console, being able to define the project and custom templates per user; almost like how CloudSpec has approached the solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Licensing is per lot, or per agent — one agent is one license."
  • "There is a huge cost saving with BMC TrueSight compared to other solutions."
  • "Regarding pricing, it comes with the package when you buy the server automation. But it's made depending on some agreements for companies, of which I don't know the clause."
  • "Licensing is available in different ways and depends on data being consumed by users and nodes being operated."
  • More BMC TrueSight Orchestration Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Our licensing is on a yearly basis. We pay for the license and then we pay the support every year."
  • "This solution is expensive and the licensing is more attractive for Haveri."
  • "The price is reasonable, and one of the reasons that this product was selected."
  • "We provide the VMware solution to our clients, for which they pay a perpetual license."
  • "The concept of hyper-convergence is smart. I don't know if it can be applied with less cost to be more affordable for small or medium-sized companies. The cost is a very important factor for it. We are currently depending on SAN storage. However, the hyper-converged solutions are depending on the storage within the hosts, such as vSAN in the VMware. It is a smart solution."
  • "We pay a yearly fee, based on our entries."
  • "The licensing module is somewhat complex. Calculating the cost is complicated. Many of our clients are unclear about the billing system and the traffic metering."
  • "The licensing cost is manageable because they have different versions available, standard, essential, and advanced."
