We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The stability has been very good over the years.""Automates processes and allows reports and statistics to improve the speed at which changes and assets are managed."

"Real User Monitor has improved our productivity.""The reporting feature is good for us.""The technical support is good at resolving issues.""Very easy to implement.""The most useful feature of this solution is tracking. When the application's traffic has been monitored it is taken from that particular application and analyzed. It is then given a live session of that particular user. For example, if you are using your bank application to do some kind of transaction, everything that you do can be tracked by that application.""The Real User Monitor, with its transaction and synthetic transaction monitoring, is the typical classic in APM cases when the customer would like to do transaction monitoring. Micro Focus scores better where the underlying infrastructure management is also covered by Micro Focus tools.""The most valuable feature is application performance monitoring."

Cons
"The solution should offer better integration with other tools from a service management perspective.""Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect. Having better documentation will allow business analysts and data center personnel to rely on the Micro Focus help desk less."

More OpenText Business Process Monitoring Cons →

"This technology is considered to be older.""Some issues with login errors.""One area to improve is the user interface, of course. The second one is their R&D has virtually stopped building a product roadmap.""Everybody is moving away from traffic and installing agents on the application to do the job, but Micro Focus is using traditional ways to collect the traffic. They should change their architecture completely.""Real User Monitor needs to cover more protocols to provide more in-depth information. It could also be better at monitoring voice-related traffic. There is currently no visibility in that channel.""We would like to see support for non-Windows environments.""When we want to monitor our encrypted traffic, this product doesn't work because our cipher is not supported."
