Apica vs. TeleMate

As I use this for only my area, it is very well suited to what I need it to do. Apica Synthetic monitors two different web applications in a time interval that is easily customizable for uptime and latency. These are critical indicators for a cloud-based point-of-sale system. We need solid uptime and limited latency across the enterprise.

TeleMate Predictive UC Analytics shines with reports that can be set up to run daily, weekly, or monthly and offer an excellent point of view for the data and visually pleasing graphs. Critical day-to-day live data can easily be shared with web link(s) to users that do not have access to run or create their own reports. I would say Predictive UC Analytics application is probably not suitable for smaller organization where the deployment-implementation costs might not offer the best ROI for them.

• Good product support from the team

• The support we get from the team is excellent. They are always improving and if there is something we need they jump right on it and try to find a solution for us.
• They are always improving on the product and if they see there is an issue before we do they contact us.
• The product is easy to use, very user friendly interface.
• Many features in the product that we have not even begun to touch on.

• It's very clunky. Infrastructure is large and very difficult to upgrade.
• SaaS and On-premise versions are different. There is an LDAP integration but users can only be assigned to one group (i.e. department). If you are in 2 departments, you need 2 separate logins.
• Update: they now offer federated logins
• It filled a gap in monitoring for us, but we're looking to move on.

• I would love to see a search filed for the TeleMate Predictive UC Analytics application reports and report templates.
• The TeleMate Predictive UC Analytics application could benefit from darker themes.

We trust the results that Apica Synthetic has achieved. Real-time alerting is critical to our clients and with limited resources, we can't handle many false positives; Apica Synthetic is the only solution that provides both of those features.

As per my experience while using it. Thanks!

Apica Synthetic is very effective while configuring the account setup for any of the database/UserID.

Easy for implementation in our Infrastructure, Easy for troubleshooting the issue and Easy to use as well.

Apica Synthetic is more efficient than other competitors; our main priority is gain in the effort, time, and customer satisfaction, which Apica Synthetic definitely guarantees. Real-time alerts are just perfect which is exactly what we need, I can't say the same about other tools that may be less expensive but also less efficient.

We evaluated several other systems and went with TeleMate Predictive UC Analytics as they had a broader range of tools. We started looking for a CDR product and found that they provided those needs and had much more

• My department is not charged for Apica Synthetic so no ROI, but from a customer service perspective, we can react to an outage and repair it faster than our customers can report the outage.
• Our vendor's own monitoring tools are not as accurate nor as timely as ours. They rely on us telling them, from Apica Synthetic, that they have an issue.

• Information collected is used to justify staffing needs
• When used along with other technology, such as logging recorder, TeleMate Predictive UC Analytics helps determine accurately what happened with a caller
