Overall Satisfaction with IntelliMagic Vision for z/OS

This became a game changing product for us. We have been using traditional SAS/MXG to create PDB's and pull the reports which use to take tons of time, with IntelliMagic we are more focused on tunning and analysis then cleansing SMF data to create reports.
  • Reduction in SMF processing time
  • predictive capability to avoid any outages related to infrastructure
  • long term trending ability
  • forecasting ability
  • Billing comparison options
  • Alternate products with the pricing options
  • preventive measure
  • reduced costs
  • Addressed multiple performance issues
with more than 12 years of experience in Mainframe performance tuning and analysis, it was much easier to translate and understand the tool. New college grads without Mainframe exposure struggled a bit to connect the dots, it might be good to have a recording from IM to go through mainframe basics before the staff start to use the tool covering mainframe concepts than tool itself.
IM has a great sales and support team; they are readily available for any questions and issues we had with the product.
It's one of the best products we found at the offering to help us in reporting for our mainframe environment
