Insight and Analysis: From professionals on Gartner Peer Insights:
Overall Comment (four stars, from July 13, 2018): “The OpsRamp interface needs some tweaking and usability improvements, but the functionality offered up is well thought through and effective. The session auditing and replay are very well done and show the value add provided in comparison to other third party session management brokers. Documentation has shown improvement and there is obviously an investment in that area. I have already recommended OpsRamp to several other vendors.”
Overall Comment (four stars, from July 11, 2018): “Graphical representation of entire IT infrastructure into a single pane of glass really worked well with our customers. One other feature which we use the most is automation of alerts and self healing capabilities of incidents.”
Overall Comment (two stars, from July 2017): “Navigation is clunky, load time is slow, and not built to allow for agile development. The mobile app doesn’t work at all. The service maps are archaic. The event correlation is a manual process and very time consuming. It does a good job of monitoring for network gear and URLs, but everything else is lacking.”
Overall Comment (five stars, from May 2018): “The Vistara organization and their platform has been a breath of fresh air. Most monitoring and management platforms require a heavy on-site design and implementation phase. With Vistara’s Cloud Platform, and simple agent based system, we were able to very rapidly deploy the solution and start realizing its benefits. In addition, the in system documentation is actually useful! The people at Vistara are extremely knowledgeable about their product, helpful and able to provide assistance at a moments notice. We have had access to product managers, engineering and support organizations in a fraction of the time it would have taken other organizations.”
