We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
The solution integrates well with most Microsoft products. The graphical user interface makes it easy for users to configure the sites. The solution is easy to use, easy to maintain and isn't too technical. This is definitely a stable solution. The solution is the easiest way to publish applications which have been designed by older development tools. It is a lightweight web host that is easy to configure for simple webpages. | The most valuable feature is the flexible discovery mechanism. The custom built integration is one of the most valuable features because you can see all the especially critical items. |
Cons | |
If Microsoft IIS could work well with AppOptics or things like PHP, Python, and other custom languages that run on the webserver, it would be ideal. I think there are cases where people need to use Apache instead of IIS when IIS doesn't work well with other web languages. This solution needs to be easier for cases where you want to have an IIS cluster. The solution should improve the cluster environment and load balancing. The areas of this solution that need improvement are monitoring, debugging, and troubleshooting. The scalability depends on how you have set it up. If you're running IIS on a single server, it might not be as capable as if you are on many in a cluster or with load balancing and so on. Finding different settings can be difficult if you don't know where to look. | The inclusion of a feature to show a graphical view of the network would be a helpful improvement. There was a problem with Zenoss and storage monitoring. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
This solution comes included with Windows Server. It is licensed with your Windows installation which makes it relatively cheap if you already have a Windows Server sitting around. | Information Not Available |
