Pros
"Our organization uses Cisco Intersight since it helps manage our physical infrastructure.""The product has good integration.""Intersight can validate our environment.""Cisco Intersight has valuable features for workflow automation and inventory administration.""Scalable portfolio of services for remote device management, with good cloud integration. It's also easy to set up.""What I like most about Cisco Intersight is its manageability.""The tool helps to manage Cisco servers.""I like Intersight because of the integration with HashiCorp, Kubernetes, and each cloud because Intersight is the IO module."

More Cisco Intersight Pros →

"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring.""The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations.""The algorithm is the most valuable aspect of the solution.""Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us.""The product is simple to use.""User session details""Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment.""Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."

Cons
"The usability must be better.""Cisco Intersight needs some improvement in terms of stability. Hybrid cloud management and proper hyperscaler tie-up are other areas for improvement.""When new features are added, the service becomes full of bugs.""It's a very complex solution.""An area for improvement in Cisco Intersight is automation. It needs more automation capabilities. Apart from enhanced automation, I want Cisco Intersight to integrate with third-party monitoring tools in its next release.""In the future, the solution needs to plan on an extension to cover a broader range of objects since, at present, there are some Cisco devices within the range of Intersight UCS that it can't manage.""The product could be easy to use.""The solution needs some enhancement in order to build the cluster in two nodes."

More Cisco Intersight Cons →

"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms.""Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more.""In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us.""The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh.""Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful.""Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap.""I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky.""The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."

  • "You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
  • "If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
  • "It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
  • "They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
  • "It is not expensive."
  • "They gave us a good price, when they were found out we were looking at other products because their price was very high. We were looking at another solution, then we came back to them was because they brought the price down. We selected them for three years."
  • "We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
  • "There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."

    Overview

    Cisco Intersight is Cisco’s systems management platform that delivers intuitive computing through cloud-powered intelligence. This platform offers a more intelligent level of management that enables IT organizations to analyze, simplify, and automate their environments in ways that were not possible with prior generations of tools. This capability empowers organizations to achieve significant savings in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and to deliver applications faster, so they can support new business initiates. The advantages of the model-based management of the Cisco UCS platform plus Cisco Intersight are extended to Cisco UCS servers and Cisco HyperFlex and Cisco HyperFlex Edge systems. Cisco HyperFlex Edge is optimized for remote sites, branch offices, and edge environments.

    • Cloud Monitoring: eG Enterprise provides effective monitoring for all of an organization's cloud infrastructures, including public, hybrid and private. eG Enterprise is able to facilitate the concise mapping of the relationships between tiers and discover the reasons for performance problems immediately before they reach the end user. eG Enterprise can be deployed on premises or as a SaaS-based solution.

    Reviews from Real Users

    “The product makes data collection easy. It's simple to set up. The algorithm is the most valuable aspect of the solution. In a few minutes after the installations, we can get insights from my technical environment. After a few minutes, I can get some valuable insights to make decisions.” - Anderson L., LatAm Presales Analyst at CLM

    “Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities.” - A PeerSpot user who is a Consultant at a tech services company
