Find out what your peers are saying about BMC, ServiceNow, Microsoft and others in Event Monitoring."We use the on-premises version to monitor our systems and manage emails. All our systems use Operations Bridge, especially the critical systems."
"Flexible dashboard with the availability of widgets."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with everything."
"Purely, its flexibility is the most valuable aspect. It is hugely configurable."
"The Performance Manager provides great insight into our systems' performance."
"The event correlation is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The correlation feature is the most used feature. It allows you to correlate events from different sources and have more meaningful events."
"I've found the solution to be very scalable."
"Stability is probably the best out-of-the-box. Put it in, set it up, and you leave it alone. It works wonderfully."
"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."
"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 flexible. You can customize what you need to, which is good. For example, you can do your own coding inside the tool, make your own scripting tooling."
"It alerts the operators when it is time to repair the communications and the IPLs."
"Because we can define complex commands, the training of new operators is quicker. We can also put checks in place, that will prevent user errors."
"It reduces the number of repetitive motions required by a human to respond to the system."
"OPS/REXX is valuable because it allows us almost unlimited flexibility in automating our system."
"The setup process can get a little bit complex."
"Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling."
"It is a very complicated product. It's difficult to manage. Nowadays, products are very easy to manage, deploy, and integrate, but Operations Bridge is very complicated to manage."
"The service takes a very long time to start and it requires a lot of resources."
"The initial setup of this tool is complex for people who lack experience with it."
"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."
"I know that in the next version, X1005, they're moving to more graphical overviews, which should help our senior managers."
"pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events."
"It’s a complex product. The initial installation is easy, but implementing various functions is a constant process."
"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."
"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky."
"Scalability is zero. It cannot be scaled because of its age."
"The further expansion of the mainframe teamcenter interface. Also, the web services support is something that I am looking into."
"Some of the command sequences are too long."
"It definitely needs more web-based interface, to be more mobile-open. More APIs, more open source to it."
