"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."
"The setup was easy."
"We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product."

"We have found the solution to be stable."
"It helps us a lot for monitoring our servers in one console, instead of going to individual servers."
"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."

"OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster."
"We get a lot of false alerts."
"The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."

"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
