Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"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."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Having standard monitoring features and a central repository saves us a lot of time and reduces risk of incidents."
"At a glance I can easily see what is going on with all of my VMware environments, including top consumers of resources."
"The ability to track performance of an application or application suite over time is extremely valuable to our business partners and for our application development team with near real time results."
"FxV is valuable as we can playback the session."
"Capacity on database and file servers. I found the algorithms to forecast growth and concerns particularly intuitive."
"Infrastructure Monitoring and End User Monitoring are the product’s most valuable features to me."
"Sometimes we can solve problems before they occur."
"Intuitive, Single-pane-of-glass dashboards for real-time statistics and long-term statistics for capacity management and in-depth analytics"
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"In terms of sales or market perspective, they must invest in Latin America with professionals with a more marked presence."
"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."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"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."
"I think installation and setup needs little more improvement especially when you are installing with external database."
"We are running a Webmethods stack (Software AG) and Foglight is unable to instrument. We are in a POC with Dynatrace and it was able to instrument with little effort."
"They need to improve the stability of FxM and FxV."
"SQL agents often failed but again this may have been addressed in future versions."
"The version compatibility needs work."
"I would perhaps like to see more SSMS connections."
"I want to see a new interface that contains HTML5 features. The current version of Foglight (on-premise edition) is so fusty in comparison with leaders of Gartner APM Quadrant - i.e. Appdynamics, NewRelic, Dynatrace."
"Being able to incorporate other bespoke monitoring into Foglight would have made the tool even more useful."
