What is ScienceLogic SL1?
The ScienceLogic SL1 platform aims to enable companies to digitally transform themselves by removing the difficulty of managing complex, distributed IT services. SL1 uses patented discovery techniques to find everything in a network, so users get visibility across all technologies and vendors running anywhere in data centers or clouds. The vendor states the advantage of SL1 is that it collects and analyzes millions of data points across an IT universe (made up of infrastructure, network, applications, and business services), to help users make sense of it all, share data, and automate IT processes.
With SL1, the user can:
- See everything across cloud and distributed architectures. Discover all IT components—–across physical, virtual, and cloud. Collect, merge, and store a variety of data in a clean, normalized data lake.
- Contextualize data through relationship mapping and machine learning (ML) for actionable insights. Use this context to understand the impact of infrastructure and applications on business service health and risk, accelerate root cause analysis, and execute recommended actions.
- Act on data that is shared across technologies and IT ecosystem in real time. Apply multi-directional integrations to automate workflows at cloud scale.

Powerful but complicated.
As a big company we use almost all monitoring tools on the market but ScienceLogic may be different since it can be used as part of our offerings.

SL1 Datacenter Monitoring
I used BMC Client Management at a previous job. ScienceLogic was already in place at my current position.
December 05, 2020
SiLo prevents silo's
- SolarWinds Access Rights Manager, ServiceNow, BMC CMDB (formerly Atrium CMDB), Nagios and CA Spectrum
ScienceLogic exceeded in both price and capabilities across all of these competitors.

In a world of shiny objects and hip new projects, ScienceLogic is a blast from the past.
We didn't evaluate any other tools as far as I'm aware

SL1 allows you to monitor more, with less noise.

The tool that keeps on evolving
ScienceLogic SL1 is a good tool for being a mile wide and two inches deep--it does a majority of things well, but the aforementioned tools are not only more expensive but cater to specific trades. Prognosis is centered around collab--LogicMonitor and Nimsoft being server/cloud, Spectrum being network.
ScienceLogic SL1 is the only platform that provides a complete solution beyond monitoring and alerting. The cost to deploy is much lower than all of the products listed. While each of them have their strengths over some aspect of SL1, ScienceLogic SL1 brings all of the capabilities together in one place and is extensible enough to improve in those areas or integrate to take advantage of the strength of the other product. ScienceLogic SL1 is an operations management platform which places it ahead of the pack for any decision maker in my opinion. I say that someone who had not heard of ScienceLogic prior to this implementation who quickly became a believer in the platform going forward.
BMC TrueSight Operation Management, Infrastructure Management, Discovery, and CMDB can be all replaced by SL1. This is pretty impressive. However, the BMC product, while more complicated to install and manage, has some advantages. There are capability management and application visibility that can give you a very detailed view of what is happening in your applications. Entuity can be replaced as well. But Entuity is excellent when it comes to discovering the netowrk connections. Compared to it, SL1 excels when it comes to monitoring of the non-network infrastructure and event management. And there is the price point.

New concept of monitoring
Sciencelogic SL1 is a strategic choice for all our customers. So for new customers or for new contracts we must use SL1 solution.
Comparable. Difference is that it covers about 60-70% of needs.
April 25, 2020
Single Solution Platform for IT
It significantly improves MTTR. Real-time monitoring using AI/ML is great.
April 25, 2020
SL1 Automation: AI ops is the future
SL1 stacks up well against the competition. The only product for the cost and features that compares is Solarwinds. Like any network monitoring product, the backbone needs to be up/down monitoring. SL1 does this well and allows for the flexibility to integrate and automate actions after an event is triggered. The main difference between Solarwinds and SL1 is that Solarwinds has more modules that provide IPAM, Netflow, and configuration management. With configuration management in SL1, SL1 could be a real game-changer of a product in the network monitoring space.

ScienceLogic collapses multiple NMS into one and provides un-thought of before benefits
ScienceLogic won out on our metric scoring system by more than two-fold over similarly priced platforms.
April 24, 2020
All robust tool that meets all your DM requirements
We have found ScienceLogic SL1 well suited to both MSP and Enterprise monitoring at scale and where a high degree of integration with other systems or customization of monitoring approaches is required. It might, however, be overkill for smaller enterprises where the requirements are more straightforward.
April 23, 2020
ScienceLogic SL1 - THE monitoring tool going forwards!
With ScienceLogic SL1, you can achieve almost anything, but some knowledge about SNMP calls, powershell, ssh, scripting, SOAP, etc. is a must.

SCILO is the COOLLIE O
At this point we have had no need to look anywhere else

ScienceLogic SL1: the good & the bad
- Splunk Cloud, Elasticsearch, Amazon CloudWatch, Datadog, New Relic, Stackdriver, PRTG Network Monitor, Solarwinds Web Performance Monitor and HPE OneView
The coverage and ease for what we need is just better. Most of the other solutions are just point tools that don't bring many functions together or are missing pieces to be successful.

Great Extensible Monitoring (GEM) framework
CA Unicenter; this was a long time ago, but ScienceLogic SL1 was far ahead even going back many years.
April 21, 2020
A decade with ScienceLogic
ScienceLogic SL1 was the only option for WYSIWYG dashboards when we selected them in 2009 and noticeably cheaper. Other vendors are now catching up and ScienceLogic is starting to price themselves out of their market segment.

ScienceLogic SL1 Review from a Solution Architect
Cost is becoming a concern and the upgrade process has introduced bugs--lack of maps.
April 21, 2020
ScienceLogic SL1 Review
- SolarWinds N-central, PRTG Network Monitor and SolarWinds Remote Monitoring & Management
SL1 is must better at datacenter management and insights than its competition.
April 21, 2020
10 Years through thick and thin.
ScienceLogic is a much more mature and robust than the previously used platforms (that are not even available in the selection above). SL is the whole package when it comes to a customizable solution for monitoring, ticketing, and external system integration. They are constantly improving the offering.

SL1 for the world
Most comprehensive tool.
