Juniper Paragon Insights vs. LogicMonitor

There are many products in this particular space. I believe Juniper has divided up the product suite which comprises automation, programmability and general DevOps, but this also makes it frustrating, as the functionality may not be inherent to the particular product. I recommend making sure all use-cases are covered by the product or products prior to being implementation, because a partial solution may grow stagnant or losing funding if it does not meet all KPI.

I would recommend LogicMonitor to mid-sized IT teams or MSPs. I thought it was going to be just another monitoring tool, but the more you work with it, the more you realize how solid it actually is; now it's a full-on platform. I've had a really good experience with Logic Monitor. It's powerful, a little messy in Parts. But once it's running smoothly, it's kind of a beast, definitely made my life easier.

• Visibility: it is one of its key features that supports us by showing multidimensional views and facilitates [use] in the monitoring process.
• Customization: its flexibility is worth appreciating and its dashboard offers customizations and we can have resource metrics according to our personalization.
• Integration: integration is easy and great that allows us to integrate it with any 3rd source platform.
• Data collection is another feature that allows us to collect data in our desired standard method.

• It shows us system issues right away so we can fix them fast.
• It finds new devices on its own, so we do not miss anything.
• It alerts us only when something really unusual happens.
• Its dashboards make it easy for everyone to see system health.
• It helps us see trends so we are ready for busy times.

• Appliance-version would be a nice addition
• Additional product/protocol support for a wider data ingress
• Better documentation / online support

• Segmentation at an instance level not just the resource when clients are sharing the same device but shouldn't see each other's relevant data
• ARM CPU support for collectors to allow for a lighter weight appliance deployment
• WMI collection with a Linux collector so a windows collector would not be needed or a virtual appliance template that can be used to deploy collectors

This product has met virtually all of our needs. It was easy to implement and has been simple to support. Customization has been intuitive with many options available. They keep adding features and expanding available options. The future of LogicMonitor looks even better than it is today which is very promising. The management and support teams at LogicMonitor are always helpful

Set up is super easy. Just stand up a small Linux or Windows server to act as a collector. There are no agents to install on monitored devices and all you need is SNMP or WMI access. When creating dashboards, all you have to do is find the widget on the device you want to show up and choose the menu option to add it.

The sales team support we received was top notch. They worked hand in hand to make sure the product met all expectations. So far we have not really had to work with support that much; we have worked with setup team after purchase to deploy product fully. No issues so far and we are four weeks in.

Add good training

The training is good but room to improve

The implementation experience was awesome for me, as the LogicMonitor team was really helpful to us. They installed everything on our primary server and provided clear, intelligible explanations. They even trained our non-tech team on it as well. Therefore, my team and I had a very simple and pleasurable implementation experience.

We decided to go for Paragon after checking all the pros and
cons as we didn’t have a good experience of Memfault and maybe it was just
because we haven’t made enough research on it and we had to suffer cause of its
malfunctioning and difficulty. Moreover, I think that I can never regard
Memfault as a complete package which Paragon insight definitely is.

Our business used the trial period they provided on one of our systems and conducted sessions with all of this software. Our team tested all of these software options before deciding on LogicMonitor, as our business is expanding daily and we needed a system that could accommodate our growing workforce and automatically add systems to our network, which LogicMonitor alone provided.

Pricing seems to be getting more and more aggressive, I worry that it's going to turn into ServiceNow or SAP and everything minor feature will be an extreme cost that prices out us and our customers

Haven't really used it but our initial onboarding PS was disappointing. Felt like we were being told what we needed to cover as opposed to what we wanted to cover. In addition, we were pushed into using the PS in tight time frames and we were not ready to do so.

• The KPI shown in the dashboards has assisted in business devices.
• The playbooks with user- or event-triggered actions has reduced manhours.
• The automated workflow has reduced outages due to human error.

Incentivized

• We Eliminated an on-prem monitoring tool which was in excess of 25 servers
• A decrease in time to response from our Network Operations Center resulted in a more consistent client experience
• Dynamic alert thresholds helped reduce alerting by about 10 to 15% as soon as we turned it on for volatile metrics like CPU and memory
