Overall Satisfaction with ScienceLogic SL1
We are using SL1 for monitoring of over 75K devices, both network devices and servers including V-centers and associated storage devices. Alerting is tied into our NOC Center so appropriate teams are notified when a major critical event occurs.
On-Premise Only
Pros
- Customised "power packs" with monitoring applications for specific hardware models
- Automation of connectivity maps
- Supplies usefull tools like API tester and SQL query ability via the GUI
- Easy to drill down to specific events that are alerting and see what corrective actions are needed.
- Easy to extend alerting to email distributions
- System is very scalable
- Product support is outstanding, some of the best Vendor support I have seen in my 40 + years as an engineer
- They are very responsive to user needs and offer customization in a timely fashion
Cons
- offer more dashboard templates
- provide more service packs for Arista Devices
- Elastic Observability, Nagios Core, Prometheus, Zabbix, OP5 Monitor, Datadog, Grafana, Splunk AppDynamics, Cacti, Swimlane and SolarWinds Observability
ScienceLogic adds easy customization through the "power packs" that have carefully designed applications specific to certain vendors/models
