What is ScienceLogic SL1?

  • Event Monitoring
  • Dashboards and creating custom Dashboards
  • Device Discovery
  • More freedom to create custom dashboards as on the previous versions we could do much more
  • The Performance TAB windows is too small and cannot be resized or maximized when looking at reports for "Overview", "File System" and any of those items.
  • There are not enough widgets to create stunning dashboard in AP2
  • The reporting feauture is a very untouched area.

  • Custom Integrations via SL1 PowerFlow
  • Ability to configure Run Book Automations
  • Customize the Dynamic Applications as per requirement
  • Buggy Software. A lot of features which must have worked out of the box were fixed during the course of implementation. This led to a lot of delays in delivery.
  • Limited documentation for Custom Development in SL1 PowerFlow and/or ScienceLogic SL1 Monitoring Suite.
  • Example: There are no best practice recommendations for:
  • Custom Monitoring expected out of Scripts hosted on Agent-Based Systems.
  • Custom Development which would be required for Integrations configuration via SL1 PowerFlow
  • Sluggish Support: After logging a Support Case, it takes too long for resolution / response. Really strange that there's limited tracking despite escalations.
  • Professional Services Subscription

  • Log file monitoring is very versatile, could be useful to monitor basically anything for that you do not have special PP.
  • Overall Cost-Effective solution, transparent GUI, dashboards
  • SL support - during P1 issues, like SL DB cluster issues, they are providing very handy help
  • selfmonitoring - need to add detection of monitoring has stopped
  • guides, manuals, knowledge base - very misleading, not detailed, does not cover many situations
  • SL Support on daily issues - from experience, often not much helpful, the support case you raise for them is often not followed, replies are seldom, they try only to close the case ASAP without any solution, without asking you if this solution is ok for you

  • It can monitor any Network devices, Operating system, processes, hardware and many more.
  • some more flexibility should be there like , it should provide functionality to get tcpdump if user is facing network disconnect between infra servers to devices

  • Monitor performance of the system resources.
  • Integration with different ticketing tools.
  • Can create business dashboards
  • They should have Powerpack for all different technolgies.
  • The support system should be more robust.
  • If there is any issue with powerpack they should release new version of Powerpack ASAP.

  • It better monitors every single and smallest things for the devices like CPU utilization, Thresholds, Memories etc.
  • Auto-ticketing for the alerts is the best part of it.
  • It helps to build relationship between one parent and many child devices.
  • It should only alert for the device/server which is down, not for all the other devices attached to the same affected devices.
  • Tabs should be in more organized manner instead.
  • Nothing more.

  • Grouping of Devices for central management
  • communicates with Service Now very well
  • Easily search customers or devices
  • Dashboards could do with being more "out of the box" friendly
  • I constantly switch bewteen the new AP2 and classic view for different functions
  • different user privileges could do with being more generic or simpler
