Visual mapping of data pipelines has improved dependency insight and speeds troubleshooting
Regarding Savision Live Maps's AI capabilities, I think accuracy was pretty good, as it gave most of the information that we were able to validate, so it's all good. The advice I would give to others looking into using Savision Live Maps is that I think it's a good product; it's a new thing, and the AI capabilities are obviously improving every day, so I'm looking forward to more improvements and more use cases, and hopefully we can scale it in different departments and for different projects. I gave Savision Live Maps a rating of 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"It has provided us with a single location to host all events to be viewed/monitored by our NOC, which has greatly helped them to streamline their processes."
"Having a good monitoring implementation has made a world of difference to our operations teams."
"TrueSight Operations Manager is a combination of different components (applications) like Presentation Server, Impact Manager, and AppVisibility Manager and IT's Data Analytics, but it provides a seamless integration and a holistic view with Application and Infrastructure Health views."
"It has provided more value than we expected and it does what it says it's going to do."
"Allows reliable access to server hardware info, uptime statuses, current patching, and much more."
"The visibility of the environment that the solutions provide is great."
"Now, through the use of this product, we have been able to reduce the headcount by five people, as we are able to eliminate the eyes on the glass."
"Savision Live Maps has impacted my organization positively because it helps visually represent nodes and understand dependencies, which helps us understand breakages and issues in production."
"This helps to centralize multiple monitoring solutions and streamline integration into ITSM."
"The dashboards and views available are easy to manage and share, and provide all of the metrics required."
 

Cons

"The solution's support service could be better."
"The dashboards are not good. We have a limited dashboard, and if we want better dashboards, we need to use other solutions like Grafana because the TrueSight dashboards are not good."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could improve the reporting."
"The SLA reports that we get on TrueSight today are unfortunately worthless."
"Cost is an issue with BMC TrueSight Operations Management."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities."
"More modules for less popular applications and better documentation."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is moderately expensive."
"The only possible additional cost that I can mention, that you might not be aware of, is that it uses Oracle partitioning, if you use Oracle. There are Oracle partitioning fees that go with that."
"They have changed the licensing fees."
"Other products are more expensive than BMC TrueSight."
"Pricing is all volume-driven. I think we were paying between $80 and $85 per license. That's per unit, for a perpetual license. You pay it one time and then, every year, you pay 20 percent of that for annual maintenance and support. But now that we've grown, we've purchased tens of thousands of licenses and the cost per license has gone down to something like less than $30..."
"Consider scalability very carefully: how much you want to monitor and what components are very important. Then, depending on these two things, filter out unwanted metrics or attributes. If you do a good job at filtering the data, then your licensing costs will be manageable."
"It is a large, complex product. So, there is a commitment of manpower to deploy it, as it is not a cheap product."
"The solutions are not the cheapest but are robust and stable. License model is rather complex and BMC do often change the model."
