Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic

We are using Science Logic to monitor a particular customer network and VoIP environment that has a global presence across multiple sites (400).

Pros

  • Out of the box alerting and monitoring metrics.
  • Ease of adding and deleting new devices to be monitored.
  • Event handling and management.

Cons

  • Topology mapping is not consistent.
  • Automation policies have issues to run.
  • Reporting is not easy.
  • Dashboards are complex and need customization for basic requirements.
  • It has had good feedback from customer and users.
  • We have been able to successfully replace other monitoring products and mirror its capabilities and achieve more in ScienceLogic.
  • There have been continuous software based issues where patches are being released but no solution is provided to problems raised.
Yes - SolarWinds
  • Capture WAN uptime using IT services.
  • Create a nested dashboard for ease of understanding.
  • Create automated tickets and manual co-relation to assist in event management.
ScienceLogic is better than most of the tools but the event co-relation in CA Spectrum is still a lot better and can be replicated.
Cisco Network environment had good out of the box monitoring features. Event co-relation needs to be improved.
