10ZiG Technology
10Zig is well suited anywhere you would need multiple computer access within the same business without having PCs set up at each station. This is not just well suited for a business but for places like schools hospitals, etc. The virtual system replaces PCs which may have other features a user might want such as a disk drive.

Strengths [Foglight]
- Monitoring, Alerting and Management of on-prem virtualization and physical servers
- Historical trending and baselining are excellent and being able to compare a problem period against the same sets of data for a period when there was no issue is especially helpful as part of troubleshooting.
- Ease of use for end users is appreciated
Weaknesses [of Foglight]
- Creation and management of custom monitors is a developer level activity requiring Groovy skillset
- Less useful for management of an environment where there is a large amount of custom implementations
- Commitment to longevity of cartridges/packs for specific subsystems
- Ability to create custom schedules/alerts/escalations is only available via a 3rd party product (from a former Quest developer) and is not particularly easy to manage/manipulate
- Lack of API accessibility for external integrations to other analytics (splunk, etc.)

- Foglight NMS is very light on resources given the amount of monitoring connectivity options it provides. It is one of the few that I've trialed in the past that offers SNMP v3 connections.
- The dashboard is concise with the main areas of interest. It can be customized as well if you have a particular use case.
- Setting up alerts is straightforward with the ability to set custom thresholds. Alert emails get sent by configuring a primary mail server with the option to add a backup mail server in the event of a primary mail server outage or connectivity issues.

- GUI interface is difficult to navigate
- No APM capabilities. They left this space about a year ago
- We have had issues with the GUI response times. On a regular basis, the interface can take several minutes to refresh

In my experience the support for 10ZiG is has been really impressive. I have not had any major issues but any minor issues I have had about it were quickly resolved with their customer service. Any questions I have had were also quickly answered by either their customer care or by reviewing their online website.

The VMware has more issues as far as crashing due to overuse and other seemingly unknown issues. There is a lot more stability with the 10Zig. The Dell was slower as well as being less user-friendly and much harder to set up, use and upgrade. 10ZiG has had a lot fewer glitches thane either of the others I have tried.

I have experienced great business insights from the operation of this product on our data and work environment. It closely monitors workflows to ensure that there is positive and regulated outcomes that meets company standards. It detects problems in early stages to avoid critical cases that can lead to higher cost and time wastage. It prepares data and all workloads to make the process of migration from our company to cloud servers more simple.
