Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic SL1
We are using ScienceLogic to tie events to our ticketing system. ScienceLogic allows us to set the priority of a specific issue that we then route to our ticketing system. If the priority is set high enough, we page the appropriate party to engage and work towards a resolution. If the issue resolves itself, the ticket will automatically close, but we still have a record of a potential issue that came up.
Pros
- ScienceLogic is very granular in how items are monitored.
- Powerpacks make it easy to monitor various systems with events predefined.
- ScienceLogic is a very flexible platform.
Cons
- The "legacy" interface is very confusing.
- The granularity of the platform comes with a whirlwind of tinkering under the hood to make the system perform properly.
- The very steep learning curve to get basic monitoring setup. However, once over this, the rest of the platform becomes easy to set up and maintain.
- We have gained better visibility into troublesome hardware by having records of equipment going up and down.
Yes - We replaced some commercially bought, and some homegrown software. Previously, teams had their monitoring tool of choice whether it be bought, or created in house. With ScienceLogic, we moved these 1 off tools to an enterprise-grade solution.
- At this time, we are only utilizing this platform for monitoring and alerting.
