    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.

    eMite is well suited for small to mid scale companies. Their goal has been to aggregate data from every source and provide personalized views for both business and IT, with a presentation layer that is truly end user oriented, since the beginning. With my experience, I strongly believe that it is not very well suited for large companies.

    Pros
    ConnectWise
    • SQL queries can be presented in many different ways to illustrate the data. They can be used in lists, graphs, meter, etc.
    • The datasets frequency of updates can be customized to from 5 minutes to annually. It's very granular in this respect.
    • It allows dashboards to be shared outside your organization with clients, partners, and vendors to maximize collaboration and reporting.

    Cons
    ConnectWise
    • Annual or more than annualized data is desperately needed for MSPs to show trends, current limitation is previous 240 days for ConnectWise tickets
    • Alerts when datasets do not sync properly, I have to rely on my team to notice vs get an automated alert from BrightGauge
    • Small thing, but it would be nice to have more options on the report scheduler to enable a start date. If you wish to do it quarterly, you have to start the schedule exactly 3 months from the next run.

    • With so much data in one dashboard, sometimes it can be overwhelming to miss out on what you were look at in first place.
    • Wish this solution had some alerting system. For example, a beep sent out from eMite when a call hits the queue.
    • Interactive Data Visualization needs to be implemented.

    Usability
    ConnectWise
    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.

    1. Creates the best user experience across different medias. 2. Pushes the contact center reporting to a new level. 3. eMite comes with regular KPIs out of the box, but it also allows users to fully configure their KPIs based on their specific data and requirements. 4. Browser based solution that can provide actionable insights for making complex business decisions.

    Support for eMite so has far has been excellent. Most of the tickets are resolved the same day. I have always seen their SLAs staying intact even for a complex situations let alone bugs that are raised to development teams. So, I never had any bad day with eMite support. They were always on dot.

    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

    eMite cuts down all the manual part[s] of getting the data and organizing [it]. This happens in the abstract layer that keeps the user in the no worry one. eMite becomes part of the solution itself rather an external application that receives data from the solution. KPI and some other complex calculations are taken care of by this wonderful analytics tool.

    Return on Investment
    ConnectWise
    • We were purchased by a large PE firm because we could easily show CSAT ratings.
    • The easily trackable stats are suitable for the C-Suite to see which division is the most profitable.
    • We won 60,000 MRR by displaying to potential customers how we track important issues with the gauges.
