Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"When it comes to the ability to scale up the product, this is suitable for small medium and large environments,""Ability to see end to end user, application, server, and network response time and throughput data.""It provides us with complete visibility of every packet.""With some APM solutions, it can take a long time to check a periodic report, but you can get all the necessary details quickly with AppResponse.""The most valuable feature is performance monitoring.""AppResponse is a total solution that gives you end-to-end visibility into applications at all levels, from Layer 1 to Layer 7. We can trace all those sections: physical, IP, transport, presentation, application, etc. It gives us the full picture.""We really like the scalability capabilities.""I have found the AppResponse, which is a packet capture solution, very good. It gives you the ability to drill down back in time. You've got all the packets there. You can troubleshoot it later, not immediately. It's very interesting."

"We find the solution to be stable.""Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats.""The CMDB and the device discovery features are most valuable.""Easy alert setup which enables different alerts in different categories.""The seamless integration with FortiGate is the solution's most valuable aspect.""The product is quite well-organized. The GUI makes it easy to navigate.""Its automated response feature has benefited our customer communication. Analysts feel more confident in providing timely responses.""AccelOps can handle a lot of data and it's just so important to true monitoring. Also, I can create a lot of rules to detect anything I like."

Cons
"The initial setup is straightforward, but you have to know a little about the product. It's not for everybody to just plug and play. If you know how the solution is implemented then it is straightforward.""Need to bring back the NetFlow module for AppResponse.""They need to better integrate with products and solutions from different vendors.""The pricing is on the higher side of things. If they could lower it, that would be ideal.""Alluvio AppResponse should improve its ability to expand across multiple operating systems.""If Alluvio AppResponse reduces its cost, it will be more beneficial for customers to monitor their application and network performance.""The AI features should be addressed in respect of the analysis and intelligence that must be supported and delivered in the tool to predigest the large amounts of data.""Integration between NPM and APM solutions would improve efficiency. There is no agent on the server site related to AppResponse."

More Alluvio AppResponse Cons →

"The interface needs some improvements because it's a bit cumbersome when you're trying to view items. It takes some time to get used to. Additionally, sometimes the scrolling does not work.""Not very good on non-API features, lacks that functionality.""They could work on their documentation. If there's anything about the solution that needs improvement, it's that. For example, documentation already is on a very high level but specifically on the CLI there are tons of features which can be fine-tuned and thousands of commands are very difficult to document. If they could make this easier, it would improve the overall solution.""The nodes on our network did not comply with the SIEM solution. They use a different format parking log.""Network detection and response is a separate product.""The dashboard needs to improve.""Creating parsers to try make unknown events or currently unsupported devices produce meaningful information is extremely cumbersome.""I would like to see easier implementation in the future."
