Cons
"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection.""I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client.""Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason."

"Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering.""What needs improvement in Micro Focus Operations Bridge is its resource heaviness because you need many resources to deploy and support it. It's a good solution for larger organizations, but for small businesses, not so much.""We are waiting for quicker release cycles. Also containerized upgrade, so that you don't have to bring a system entirely down to make a minor upgrade, in fact, or a minor patch.""pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events.""The pricing is a bit expensive for smaller companies.""I'm not aware of areas that need improvement.""Remove the dependency of Java technology. This is a feature used for admin purposes to update the modeling.""The latest versions of the service reporting dashboards need improvement, such as service modeling."
