Overall Satisfaction with LogicMonitor
As a managed service provider we use LogicMonitor as part of our service delivery. It has centralised all our monitoring across multiple technologies and multiple customers into one single platform. It has helped in consolidating toolsets and provides a powerful monitoring solution for any and all technologies that customers may have in their environment.
Pros
- Alerting is very granular and allows for bespoke tuning to specific needs.
- Dashboards are highly customizable and can be built out to specific needs.
- It integrates well with major IT service solutions
Cons
- Reporting could be developed more
- Look and feel needs standardising in some areas
- Mobile app needs developing
- Helped to streamline existing service delivery
- Increased marketable deliverables within service portfolio
- More work for me!
Prior to LogicMonitor we used a number of vendor tools with email alerting the standard for daily monitoring and alerting. This involved a lot of manual legwork to access environments via various remote access tools and as services scales this became unworkable due to the amount of time and effort required to parse data.
We are using [LogicMonitor] to monitor >200 devices spread across multiple geographical locations. It is predominantly on-prem but covers a range of technologies from network to compute to storage.
It does take effort to maintain the platform properly, from keeping datasources up to date, upgrading collectors, to developing dashboards and reporting. It isn't particularly difficult but takes time. It's an area where templating and automation may be able to improve time effort... or maybe I just need some guidance (haven't done much top up training in the last year).
It has definitely improved efficiencies in service delivery and allowed us to move away from legacy monitoring tools and ways of doing things.
