We performed a comparison between eG Enterprise and SolarWinds Server and Application Monitor based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"The product is simple to use."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"It's good at monitoring system-specific things like ports, services."
"The application dependency feature identifies issues between applications and servers or within the network where the application is hosted. It highlights related problems, whether related to packet processing or other issues, enabling the creation of alerts and reports accordingly."
"Management Console - Managing service to each server enrolled in the Solarwinds is much easier. Using a web base console, you can control your service much convenient way. There is no need to login remotely. It save a lot of time and effort."
"I adore the NTA module that provides deep details on ingress/egress traffic for any interface. With a few clicks, you can correlate who is accessing what and when, beside the bandwidth consuming applications/users."
"I am impressed with the tool's AppStack feature which mainly helps us in the identification process. This feature can give an overview of the fault and help us identify the issues for performance degradation. Instead of looking at multiple places, we can look at a single place to identify the issues."
"The features like trends, capacity planning, recommendations, and diagnostics are the main items I focus on for added value."
"Monitoring the components on your devices with out of the box monitors or the ability to create new ones (SAM)"
"The component and cable monitoring are good. SolarWinds is more intuitive and user-friendly than AppDynamics. The AppDynamics console is more complex because it's a more feature-rich solution, so it's not easy for somebody to pick it up."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The integration must be improved."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"Support for the IBM Mainframe is needed."
"SAM AppInsight for SQL: The ability to ignore fragmentation of specific indexes."
"Some custom applications cannot be monitored, and a lot more applications need to be included."
"It would be helpful if the solution could integrate more with the security compliances, like this IDSS, etc."
"I believe that some of the trends, environmental maps, and items like those found in Orion would be very beneficial."
"Mapping interactions between systems."
"Nodes in Azure are able to be monitored with the use of agents, but this does not apply to cloud service offerings that are not node based."
"It needs time-based functions for monitoring. Some things need to be polled on a specific schedule or only during a specific window."
