User Testimonials
	Cycle	Foglight
Likelihood to Recommend	Cycle No answers on this topic	Quest Software Strengths [Foglight] Monitoring, Alerting and Management of on-prem virtualization and physical servers Historical trending and baselining are excellent and being able to compare a problem period against the same sets of data for a period when there was no issue is especially helpful as part of troubleshooting. Ease of use for end users is appreciated Weaknesses [of Foglight] Creation and management of custom monitors is a developer level activity requiring Groovy skillset Less useful for management of an environment where there is a large amount of custom implementations Commitment to longevity of cartridges/packs for specific subsystems Ability to create custom schedules/alerts/escalations is only available via a 3rd party product (from a former Quest developer) and is not particularly easy to manage/manipulate Lack of API accessibility for external integrations to other analytics (splunk, etc.) Incentivized Verified User Read full review
