Foglight vs. Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics

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.)

I would like to recommend it for its detailed reporting feature, which is - I should say the great feature of Veritas Netbackup IT Analytics and they succeeded to deliver that if we compare it with ManageEngine Recovery Plus or Veeam etc. Apart from that, its Ransomware resilience has proved to the world how clients got benefitted from it and how easily they managed to recover the infected data.

It was number one due to its reporting feature, whereas it's not easy to implement but keeping in view it's reporting & cross-cloud platform functionality also this is a great option for all. Using it on a daily basis will make your life easier but doubt we need a little more resources to manage it.
