Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic SL1

Implementation is now point and click. On-premise deployments take less than a day to standup and begin monitoring of the environment.
ScienceLogic SL1 is used to fulfill many requirements. A list of them would be as follows:
  • Enterprise visibility
  • Monitoring
  • Integrations
  • AIOps
  • Reporting
  • Automation
  • RCA

Scope is 360 degrees of visibility across the enterprise.
On-Premise Only
  • Monitoring of Devices
  • Integrations to 3rd party software
  • Automations
  • Reporting is robust but not user friendly unless proper training
  • Lacks Network Flow Analytics out of the box

Do you think ScienceLogic SL1 delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with ScienceLogic SL1's feature set?

Yes

Did ScienceLogic SL1 live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of ScienceLogic SL1 go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy ScienceLogic SL1 again?

Yes

  • MTTR has increased nearly 80% across all functional areas
  • Deployment has been reduced from weeks to 1 day
  • RCA has reduced from 48 hours to 15 minutes
From a monitoring perspective, in my opinion, ScienceLogic SL1 meets if not exceeds in all areas. The two caveats are APM and Network Flow Analytics (NFA) where ScienceLogic SL1 does not have a native capability but does integrate well with the leading APM and NFA providers.
I think ScienceLogic SL1 is well suited for monitoring on-premise, cloud and IoT devices. It provides robust reporting, integration, visualization and automation.

In my opinion, it would be benefit from incorporating more network flow and application performance monitoring.
