Categories & Use Cases

IBM Tivoli Monitoring Review

Pros

  • The GUI is easy to read.
  • The software is fairly easy to configure.
  • Almost real-time.

Cons

  • The software is not reliable at all.
  • Reports errors that are false-negatives.
  • Hard to configure alarms/alerts.
  • Bulky installation (takes up quite a bit of space).

Return on Investment

  • I would not purchase this again.
  • Other software monitoring tools have been more reliable and easier to manage.
  • Difficult to manage, if you patch the server the software is installed on and have to reboot it, IBM Tivoli Monitoring does not come up clean.
