Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic SL1

SL1 is our recommended strategic tool for monitoring. It must be used for all new customers. Its aim is to monitor servers, hardware and to be integrated in a global solution, that is event management, ticketing tools by example. Different strategy could be used to deploy the solution: On-premise, on SL1 cloud or on our cloud.

Pros

  • Discovering.
  • New technology.
  • Adaptation.

Cons

  • Scheduling.
  • Log monitoring.
  • Message collectors.
  • Not yet estimate.
  • Easy to use and to configure.
  • Easy to manage.
Yes - Old monitoring tool based on old technology. SL1 monitoring offers new capabilities and could cover cloud or hybrid solution by deploying SL1 appliances on premises or on cloud, or by using cloud API to monitor virtual servers. Another point is the agentless monitoring, other old solutions need to deploy agent on target devices.
  • Orchestration.
  • Cloud.
  • Customization.
Sciencelogic SL1 is a strategic choice for all our customers. So for new customers or for new contracts we must use SL1 solution.
SL1 is well suited for all standard monitoring and discovery. Data collector high availability and scalability by using collector unit group is a good point. But using message collectors could be less appropriate for a huge number of devices to monitor. Recommended sizing for message collector is about 200 devices/message collector appliances.
