    HP Openview really helped us when we migrated our old SAP Data from IBM Platform to OpenText.

    We've found WPM to be a fit for every web application that we wanted to monitor. If you have a web app that you'd like monitoring/alerting for then WPM may work for you. So far our only struggles have been when after logging in the app launches a new tab.

    At the time we purchased WPM we were not aware of alternatives and therefore did not compare them.
