Arisant Polaris	Score 0.0 out of 10	N/A	Polaris is a monitoring platform, from Arisant. The vendor states ordinary monitoring products offer a variety of out-of-the-box metrics and alerts, but most of the time, IT staff has already developed custom scripts that are tailored for monitoring custom applications and databases. So in addition to offering out-of-the-box metrics and alert functionality, Polaris also provides an easy-to-use platform where users can set up custom metrics and alert definitions.	N/A
Foglight	Score 10.0 out of 10	N/A	Foglight is a database performance management suite from Quest, with modules to perform cloud analytics, network performance monitoring and virtualization management, scaling to a broad, cloud / virtualization focused IT infrastructure monitoring solution.	N/A

User Testimonials
	Arisant Polaris	Foglight
Likelihood to Recommend	Arisant No answers on this topic	Quest Software 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.) Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
