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

More IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON Pros →

"​The follow-up surprised me. Making sure that I am happy with what I have gone to them on. They will call after I have made changes and verify that I am happy with the changes that I did have to make. If it did not fix the complete problem, they go back over it until I am satisfied.​""Stability is probably the best out-of-the-box. Put it in, set it up, and you leave it alone. It works wonderfully.""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.""It's very secure, because it's a legacy application.""The documentation is simple, easy to follow, and use. A limited, first-time systems programmer can do it, in that it is out-of-the-box almost functional.""I do not have to keep recordings. It is there and is proactive. It helps the operators, human editors, and me.""​It is an easy product to use and it is stable.""​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 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 →

"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky.""The GUI interface could be improved, but that is coming. They are working on that.""Because of its age, it's a little bit difficult to modernize some of the integrations and some of the functions.""The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better. CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented.""​It’s a complex product. The initial installation is easy, but implementing various functions is a constant process.​""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.""The further expansion of the mainframe teamcenter interface. Also, the web services support is something that I am looking into.""Scalability is zero. It cannot be scaled because of its age."
