Information about each profile and task execution is also available, such as active sessions for profile configuration details and internal connections created for the profile. The task viewer shows all tasks running in the application along with their status and other information about each task. In case of problems, this is useful for looking up the details of a task and providing information to the system administrator or helpdesk.
BrightGauge lets us know when we have critical issues that need solving. A massive influx of tickets all at the same time triggers an investigation. Usually, it is tied to a server going down, which we can address. It would not be helpful for a small MSP or IT department with just a few daily tickets. The stats are better used to track a large amount of clients.
As I already shared the details related to Altair Smart Sight It comes with a wide range of products that is really helpful for an organization that wants to design its dashboards, Embeds application, and much more. Products like Big Data, IoT services, Embedded systems, cloud-based services, data visualization, Machine learning, dashboarding, and much more. And No one is perfect there is always a place for improvement So Because of that I am giving it a 9.
Usability is BrightGauge's strength. Granting the ability of virtually any user to be able to create a dashboard is incredibly valuable. If an organization very simple and straight forward reporting needs then BrightGauge is a perfect fit for them. Connecting to the dataset we used was very quick and easy and I imagine it would be the same for any major data source you would like to pull from.
You can rapidly adjust your account, such as changing your email or password. We may learn about the app, the engines available for creating execution profiles, and add-ons. Accessibility to the Community and help materials are also available from the same site
We did not need to use BrightGauge's support for the entire time that we used it. Best support is always the one that isn't needed because nothing breaks.
Altair smart sight stacks up against all the products mentioned above because it comes with a wide variety of applications and services like Big Data, IoT services, Embedded systems, cloud-based service, data visualization, Machine learning, dashboarding, and much more. I have used the other products like Logi Composer, Tableau CRM, and PowerBI but they only handle the specific use cases. So Because of that Altair Smartsight really provide a good and wide range of solution.
I'm not aware of any other competitors to Bright Gauge that we selected. They seem to be very close to managed IT service providers and have been great at tailoring their support to the PSAs like ConnectWise, AutoTask, etc. I can see Bright Gauge getting more and more popular as time goes by
For larger customers, the dashboarding has helped our customers to remain sticky and add services/revenue to our MSP. They want to add more fragments of their IT for the 1 pane rollup.
From a leadership perspective, BG has allowed me to make difficult staffing decisions with confidence. Detailed metric driven decisions on who is hitting KPIs/who isn't - as well as when data proved we were overstaffed and understaffed.
