Cisco 8000 Series Secure Routers vs. ManageEngine OpManager

IT would be nice to see the Cisco 8000 Series Secure Routers implement a simpler tiered approach to software licensing. It would also be great to see improved network access module options for cellular use specifically. The overall operations of the router are well integrated but the plug and play process could be improved a bit.

Manage Engine OpManager is better suited to serve server and network admins at organization to monitor their servers and network devices. It helps us with compliance with the reports available like utilization reports and capacity planning reports. It helps you to keep track of what all process are consuming the resources. It helps you in monitoring what is happening in your switches, routers and firewall

• It measures the CPU utilization of hosts, the network bandwidth utilization of links, and other aspects of the operation
• It often sends messages—sometimes called watchdog messages—over the network to each host to verify if it is responsive to requests.
• Set Up Notifications And Reports.
• OpManager offers a set of advantages that allow it to adapt to the needs of the company, guaranteeing effective monitoring of the application networks used in our organization.

• Static routes not withdrawing in vrrps failover
• Umbrella tunnels not coming up, they should have an auto recover mechanism just like physical interfaces

• Alerts has to be configured correctly otherwise unnecessary bombarding of alerts can cause inconvenience.
• The server on which ManageEngine OpManager is to be deployed should have higher resources as monitoring a large number of devices may slow down the performance of the system.
• Configuring the advanced features may require a learning curve.

This product works very well for our organization, and it would be hard to not have a tool like this going forward

I like that, even in SD-WAN mode, you can still get to the CLI. They are easy to configure from the console port, or a USB drive. I like how modular they are so we can order just what we need for that location.

The rating I provided is based on the product quality, experience (I have been using OpManager for almost the last 4 years), and relevance of the information/response I generated through Manage Engine OpManager. I have also received good support from OpManager.

At first, we were not able to add our Avaya switches to the configuration backup module, our partner tried to help, but they did not find the solution, we had one remote session with tech support of ME and they solve the problem.

I use them for different roles. Though more importantly the size of the platforms, the 8K series is more forgiving :)

During our competitive analysis, we found ManageEngine OpManager was not expensive compared to other vendors. At the same time, there was no compromise on the features such as customized reporting or configuring alerts per our clientele's unique requirements. These are our client words "Other vendors ask us to pay more $$$ for enabling additional email alerts".

• Ease of implementation and learning is excellent
• The ability to go from not knowing anything to a fully configured provider-level routing device and the flexibility to use it in any scenario makes it super simple because that means that we will have several on-hand and can use them anywhere in our network

• I don't know if you can calculate ROI with a monitoring solution, there are more factors to calculate.
• We found a really big problem with a network switch (faulty transceiver) in a trunk configuration with OPManager. this caused us serial troubles with the overall network stability.
• We are loosing around € 3.000 to 5.000 per hour if our network is not working so this was a great help to fix this issue
• Our label printers are really important to monitoring in our warehouse system, this makes OPManager a great solution for that
