"What I like best about BMC TrueSight Operations Management is that it allows you to do granular monitoring and improves VM load."
"I like the event management part."
"The most beneficial part of the product in terms of IT monitoring revolves around the areas involving automation, and it also serves as an end-to-end event management and incident management tool."
"The initial setup of BMC TrueSight Operations Management was easy."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"It is very helpful to be able to apply rule-based routing to alerts."
"I use the solution to monitor servers, databases, Windows, Linux, and web services."
"The fact that they have a very integrated relationship with Sentry Software, the Knowledge Module, is valuable... The richest feature for us is the number of Knowledge Modules that we can load into the product to add breadth of service to the customer. It enables us to move up the operational stack from hardware, to operating system, to application, and to cloud... That enables us to provide one pane of glass over all those layers - hardware, OS, app, and cloud."

"It provides a graphical representation and it's clear to see what's happening."

"Grafana is able to connect with multiple data sources, unlike Elasticsearch."
"The comparison feature is very good."
"Cost is an issue with BMC TrueSight Operations Management."
"The one piece that I would love to see is a general-purpose, configurable agent which would be a framework that you can deploy on anything, whether it be Java or anything else. It would allow you to easily deploy it on a platform that they support."

"I think the ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could use some enhancements in the application visibility tools."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could improve the reporting."

"The technical support has room for improvement."
"There is a need for improvement in automating daily monitoring reports, especially when alerts are triggered due to system downtimes or fluctuations."
"Its UI features to create charts can also be improved. Some features could have a link to the documentation."
