Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic SL1
We use ScienceLogic SL1 for monitoring and alerting critical IT infrastructure, including cloud computing, networking, Windows and Linux servers, websites, bandwidth usage metrics, and SSL certificates. Nearly all of our IT infrastructure is supported by SL1 power packs and dynamic applications, including SNMP and API monitoring and alerting endpoints.
On-Premise Only
- Integrations with ServiceNow for CMDB population and alert escalation.
- Customizable collections of performance and capacity metrics.
- The ability to customize event policies for alerts.
- Native multi-tenant features and functionality in the platform.
- The legacy EM7 interface can be overwhelming with configuration options.
- RBAC roles and policies can be difficult to manage for larger organizations.
- PowerPacks are required for nearly every vendor's platform, which requires software development resources in-house, or having to work with ScienceLogic to request and prioritize support for new vendors.
