We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use Huawei eSight to monitor devices like Wi-Fi controllers, LAN switches, and routers.""I like the real-time location monitor or RTLS feature. It is similar to the monitoring feature in Cisco Prime.""I like that it supports all our Huawei devices. Unlike other network monitoring tools that monitor Huawei devices, it provides more details when it comes to monitoring or management. We can get complete details about the devices, and management is also simple.""eSight allows me to monitor and solve any problem in the backbone and any switch in real-time.""The most important features are alarm management and the visualization of the health of our network devices.""Huawei eSight provides businesses with monitoring capabilities of network devices across your network.""We can scale the solution.""The product is stable."

More Huawei eSight Pros →

"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique.""The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning.""When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable.""It is simple.""It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments.""The tool is quite easy to deploy, and it offers very good support.""Best feature of all is detailed monitoring of services, processes, ports and SSL certificates and or web content.""It is very easy to configure because we are using an agent-less version. You can very quickly implement a collector for monitoring device servers."

Cons
"The solution and the operating system come separately. It would be easier if we did not have to deploy anything. A bundle feature would be better.""It will be better if they can make the simple network topology part more presentable. It would also be better if they had API integration and integration with third-party devices.""The solution needs to improve it's user interface to make it more modern and stylish. They need to design proper menu positions, features, etc. Right now the layout is complicated.""Something that could be improved is the lack of integration with Cisco switches. In the next release, I would like to see better reporting.""The price could be less costly.""This solution could be improved by offering monitoring for all devices and not only Huawei devices.""eSight has many features and options, but sometimes, we feel that it should be more advanced, like Cisco. It would be good if they can enable some automation part in eSight. Most of our customers want automation in their network. They don't want a dependency on everything. That's why the automation part must be improved in Huawei. It will be beneficial for customers. Cisco has different products, and there are multiple products for monitoring, automation, etc. In the software-defined network, Cisco has ACI, and VMware has NSX. Such options must be there in Huawei to move to a software-defined network. Unlike Cisco, in the case of eSight, there is only one product. I am not aware of any other product. It would be good to enhance it with at least some automation options so that we can use it effectively in the campus network or big data center environment. When I implemented this Huawei solution, I faced some limitations in particular areas like wireless scanning. This is another part that they can improve. Wireless reporting option is not as effective as other monitoring solutions. For a particular use case, if a customer is asking for some reports, sometimes they are not 100% satisfactory. The reporting structure must be improved.""It is not a very flexible product."

More Huawei eSight Cons →

"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information.""The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required.""They should improve their support process and add chat.""It was challenging onboarding users.""From a performance perspective, it needs to improve a lot.""They need a little more self-service.""They should add CLI command modes​ and scripts for high performance.""It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Its pricing is better than any other Huawei product. Some products are cheaper in Huawei, and some products are cheaper in Cisco. Cisco has more benefits and options than Huawei if you consider different network environments."
  • "Pricing depends on the competition. If your competitor is like Cisco, then Huawei is much more competitive when it comes to pricing."
  • "The price is very expensive."
  • "I would rate this solution a nine out of ten for pricing. The pricing depends on which features you use and can become expensive."
  • More Huawei eSight Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing between the two is quiet large therefore you can save some money if you don't require to collect all info on each device."
  • "Decide what you want to monitor and only monitor those items. Absorb other elements as you grow."
  • "Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
  • "It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
  • "Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
  • "The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
  • "The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
  • "I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
