"The event management part of TrueSight Operations Management, in my experience, is probably the best in the market. You have endless flexibility. You can build your own rules, you have the MRL language, and you can implement any kind of logic on the alerts. It may be correlation, abstraction, or executing something as a result of the alerts. You have almost the whole range of options available for event management using the available customization."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"It is a stable solution."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"It is very helpful to be able to apply rule-based routing to alerts."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"I like everything about this tool. I recommend this solution to anyone looking for a standalone solution with high availability meaning that can be used depending on the customers requirements."
"The ability to ensure that the data is searchable and maintainable is highly valuable for our purposes."
"Elastic APM has plenty of features, such as the Elastic server for Kibana and many additional plugins. It's a comprehensive tool when used as a logging platform."
"For full stack observability, Elastic is the best tool compared with any other tool ."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Observability is the text search."
"We use AppDynamics and Elastic. The reason why we're using Elastic APM is because of the license count. It's very favorable compared to AppDynamics. It's inexpensive; it's economical."
"The architecture and system's stability are simple."
"It is a powerful tool that allows users to collect and transform logs as needed, enabling flexible visualization and analysis."
"Machine learning is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could improve the reporting."
"Application performance management (APM) is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement. I"
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"It's too complex, too many servers are required, there are too many different components in the solution, and a lot of agents are required."
"The product must provide application or service monitoring features."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities. The data collection server called the ISM doesn't really have the HA functionality or workload balancing. It was missing from the previous product as well. It's missing redundancy."
"It would be better if the initial setup and deployment were more straightforward."
"The interface could be improved."
"If we had some pre-defined templates for observability that we could start using right away after deploying it – instead of having to build or to change some of the dashboards – that would be helpful."
"There could be more low-code features included in the product."
"Elastic Observability’s price could be improved."
"The cost must be made more transparent."
"Elastic Observability is difficult to use. There are only three options for customization but this can be difficult for our use case. We do not have other options to choose the metrics shown, such as CPU or memory usage."
"The auto-discovery isn't nearly as good. That's a big portion of it. When you drop the agent onto the JVM and you're trying to figure things out, having to go through and manually do all that is cumbersome."
"Elastic Observability needs to improve the retrieval of logs and metrics from all the instances."
