Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices
One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"Customer Service: It is top rated. I have never waited on hold for help."
"Their customer service is unparalleled."
"ScienceLogic has given us the ability to generate tickets directly from monitoring events."
"The Power Packs that are available are amazing."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"We were able to increase the monitoring coverage of both our legacy and public cloud based infrastructures, while also cutting costs by over $2 million across a five year period."
"When it comes to features, the power pack is the most valuable."
"In terms of network visibility, Statseeker can be very granular. We can tell it exactly where we want it to go and where we want it to check, or it can do an SNMP walk and find out where everything is. It's very detailed."
"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."
"You install, add SNMP credentials, add devices and BAM. Done."
"This solution will help to find problem endpoints sooner, or other issues such as throughput and network congestion."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the simplicity of adding new devices into it."
"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."
"It catches frequent flapping of the network and provides detailed reports of outages."
"We are now able to easily track where problems are with bandwidth and port errors, rather than having to do a lot of diagnostics."
 

Cons

"If I were a small to medium business, I probably wouldn't choose this provider. It is a heavily configurable, heavyweight, and scalable IT solution for IT infrastructure monitoring."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"Simplified Interface - ScienceLogic can be a bit overwhelming when you begin working with it."
"It was challenging onboarding users."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"They should add CLI command modes​ and scripts for high performance."
"I would like to see an expansion of the API."
"I’ve seen two Statseeker techs work several hours to fix it."
"Configuration management: In configuration management it would be helpful if it would backup configuration files (running and start-up configuration) for devices. (Not sure if this is already available in the latest version)."
"It would be nice if I could easily select individual interfaces."
"I do not feel that this solution is very scalable."
"The main issue I've seen, in the last six months to a year, is when I upgrade I seem to be hitting bugs. The upgrade won't go smoothly and I have to engage support. These things happen when you upgrade, it's not the end of the world, but from a stability point of view, the only time I've so far, is during upgrades."
"There is a little bit of room to improve in the alerting section to give some more options there. It's all I can think of right now off the top of my head."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"We would like to see improvements in reporting and multiple-user integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
"Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
"Pricing between the two is quiet large therefore you can save some money if you don't require to collect all info on each device."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."
"We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year."
"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."
"Pricing is reasonable but licensing should unlimited."
"We now feel the pricing is a good value. Previously we had a just a normal license but now we've got an Enterprise license. Since the Enterprise, it's been a lot better value. We did think it was pretty expensive before, but with the Enterprise license it's almost less than half that price. If you have a number of accounts within the organization that use Statseeker, I would suggest get the Enterprise license."
"The yearly cost varies as per the number of devices being monitored. The cost for 25,000 devices is about $4500."
"It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."
"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."
