We performed a comparison between BMC TrueSight Operations Management and Cisco UCS Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"The tailoring of the knowledge modules has been particularly useful as I can streamline the agents to only report on critical events."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"The most valuable features of BMC TrueSight Operations Management are the blackouts and event management."
"It is breadth. It covers so many different technologies which can roll up into a single console."
"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"Signature baselines, which have allowed us to fine tune many of our events and significantly reduce the number of events generated."
"Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale."
"From a usability and functionality perspective, Cisco UCS Manager is very good."
"The management is one of the most valuable features of this solution."
"When one server fails, we can attach the service profile to a new server, which saves a lot of time."
"The interface is ergonomic and native. We can use UCS Manager to do all the configurations for the servers, including storage, networking, and all the other components we need inside the fabric. It's simple and flexible."
"Ease of management is certainly the most valuable feature in this product."
"I can quickly manage the provisioned servers."
"The hardware is very powerful and it is a stable solution."
"What I like most about Cisco UCS Manager is the ease of administration. It also allows the central management of maintenance, installation, and configuration activities."
"The solution could improve its price."
"I would like to see a little more out-of-the-box event correlation and expanded AIOps type capabilities. Where you can train your artificial intelligence operations to be able to memorize an issue once you encounter one scenario, so if you encounter that same problem, you can get to the root cause very quickly."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"The product must provide more AI capabilities."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"This solution is lacking in application monitoring features. Technical support for this solution also needs improvement, particularly in product knowledge and response time."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could use some enhancements in the application visibility tools."
"We have three data centers and if we could manage all three data centers using one interface, it would be great."
"Its user interface can be improved. It can be more user-friendly."
"The solution's pricing is high and could be reduced."
"There is room for improvement in the software part of Cisco UCS Manager. It should be more user-friendly, especially when creating policies."
"The automation within the solution needs to be simplified."
"The integration with other solutions could be better. I think Cisco can only integrate using Intersight. There is a second interface available as a SaaS platform, in the cloud, or on-premise. It's based on the Redfish protocol, which is standard for all the B-series servers in the market. We can integrate other solutions using API."
"I would like to see Cisco UCS optionally work as a hyper-converged system because right now, it only operates as a converged system."
"Cisco UCS is expensive compared to others. The Cisco UCS Chassis is more expensive than a standalone server, but some companies require standalone servers because of their production load and affordability. You need to pay more if you require more features on the Blade or if you need more ports on the switch."
