    From my point of view, when we are working with a medium package project, this Micro Focus AppPulse Suite is very useful and effective at finding problems in our activities and codes and isolating them. But when we are working on large-size projects or backend performances, it works slowly to detect issues.

    SiteScope is definitely well suited in an HP server environment. It is also well suited for virtual server environments. It is also well suited for those who are happy with email and text based message alerting. It may not be appropriate in other environments where monitoring physical components is critical. Because HP SiteScope does not monitor certain physical components, it does fall short of being able to be a "one stop shop solution" in regard to monitoring. It is not well suited for those looking for logic in how alerts are sent and cascade to other people or groups.

    • Sitescope is particularly used for infrastructure monitoring. Other kinds of monitors cannot be set using HP sitescope.
    • Sitescope cannot have graphs like splunk which is why we have splunk as well which is an additional cost for the company.
    • We can't have a direct regex operations on data inside HP sitescope. We need to have the logs placed as a single log and then do that.

    Can't really answer this. Setup was easy and no support has really been used at this point.

    • Sitescope does exactly what it was purchased for. It may take some time to set it up but once its set up it is a rock solid product.
