Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The correlation feature is the most used feature. It allows you to correlate events from different sources and have more meaningful events.""Purely, its flexibility is the most valuable aspect. It is hugely configurable.""The integration with the ticketing tool makes sure that there is a record for every issue.""The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature.""I've found the solution to be very scalable.""The event correlation is the most valuable aspect of the solution.""The most valuable feature is that everything can be consolidated into one dashboard.""We haven't faced any stability issues. There hasn't been any crashes or glitches."

"The most valuable features of OpsRamp include a single pane of glass, event correlation, personalized dashboards, and a single platform solution.""The feature we found most valuable in OpsRamp is alert generation because whenever there is any kind of spike on any virtual machine, the solution generates alerts based on the thresholds we implemented. We have integrated our ideas and tools with OpsRamp, so alerts are generated, then we notify the customers. That's the main feature we like about OpsRamp because we don't have to monitor each resource. Instead, OpsRamp does the monitoring for us, and it generates the alerts based on the thresholds.""We find the products seamless integration with Zendesk to be extremely valuable to our business.""The most valuable feature of this solution in my experience, is that the available reporting is quite accurate.""The technical support is fantastic, and they are fast to respond.""It greatly assists small and medium-sized businesses in using the ITSM, alerting, and monitoring features.""The feature that we have found most useful are the dashboards, which can be built in minutes using this solution, allowing multiple products, thresholds, or any given required metric to be seen in a single area.""Most features work fine."

Cons
"The pricing is a bit expensive for smaller companies.""Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering.""The setup process can get a little bit complex.""The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA.""The service takes a very long time to start and it requires a lot of resources.""The price is quite expensive, and because of this, we may try another solution.""pology-based event correlation does not work well with NNM events.""The pricing could be improved."

More OpenText Operations Bridge Cons →

"The function to search any particular device within this solution needs to be improved. Currently, the solution develops a lag when a search, or a comparison, is being carried out.""We would like this solution to be developed into a full CMP tool, so that we are able to use a single product for all of our cloud management needs.""Automation is currently quite complex and needs to be improved.""OpsRamp cannot be scaled for big and large company deployments.""I would like to see two things. The first is a self-service portal for the cloud, any cloud deployments, and the second is maturity validation towards ITSM, internalizing OpsRamp TSM. As a result, instead of integrating with more mature tools similar to ServiceNow, people will use OpsRamp.""OpsRamp could improve the critical alerts. We have been receiving some false alerts when monitoring. For example, the alert shows the site is down, but when we try to do manual access to the URL, it's accessible.""We have 55 AVDs, and patches might roll out to 32-35 initially, with the rest taking a month or so. OpsRamp can't detect them all directly. Since clients want patches applied as soon as possible, we manually patch those remaining devices.""What's lacking in OpsRamp is process automation, and if there is, I wish there could be more of it, other than just spikes, or it would be better if the alerts can be generated based on different matrices. That option is absent in OpsRamp at the moment, and it would be valuable if that could be provided in the solution, especially if there's any kind of security issue in the VM."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."
  • "It is competitive."
  • "Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."
  • "The licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."
  • "The cost is very high."
  • "As OpsBridge is a suite of products bundled together, you may find yourself paying for software functionality that you don't actually use, e.g. Real User Monitor (RUM)."
  • "The licensing model for Micro Focus Operations Bridge is unit-based so it can be one device or ten devices depending on your situation or model. Cost-wise, it's much more if you have more devices and features such as infrastructure monitoring, analytic dashboard, and business dashboard in your model."
