Considered Both Products	BMC AMI Ops Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops BMC AMI Data Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops I think BMC AMI Ops is better than OMEGAMON in all aspects, but SYSVIEW is a good competitor. SYSVIEW is easy to use and responds quickly. The decision to use one or other product has been more financial and administrative than technical. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops The stack is directly competitive to those solutions offering a broad list of capabilities with a unified interface and intuitive experience. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops IBM OMEGAMON Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops BMC AMI Ops was chosen because of its reporting and alerting capabilities Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BMC AMI Ops It is only supported on VMWare and less entirely on a solution for traditional capacity planning. There was more of a strain on VMware in terms of cost and comfort level in ramping up with the solution, which was why we selected BMC AMI Ops. Incentivized Helpful? VS Varun Singh Data Product Manager Chose BMC AMI Ops We use IBM's resource measurement facility in the past. Compared to that the BMC is more user friendly and has more feature set Incentivized Helpful? Saikat Chatterjee Specialist Solutions Architect Chose BMC AMI Ops BMC AMI Cloud and Data provides a data resiliency solution for the cloud.

Likelihood to Recommend	The best part of AMI Ops for z OS, CICS DB2, or Network management, which I like and prefer to use, is that there are so many very useful Views for almost all purposes, specifically to analyze system performance issues that really impact Business.

Pros	Monitor the health of the system. Alert when the threshold is met such as CPU DASD I/O MVS Storage Does a very good job with IMS Reporting and threshold notification. region Looping, high CPU Java region Gabbage collection reporting work great with IBM Health center.

Cons	Going back in history must be improved, its not that flexible. The current interval in the z OS panel is 1 minute. However, the backward details show 15 15-minute intervals, which is not helpful. The job delay reason column should include a more exact reason instead of a general statement.

Usability	Because of the overall feature set is has. However I feel there is some room for improvement especially in documentation and wider API integration Incentivized VS Varun Singh Data Product Manager Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	BMC AMI Cloud and Data provides a data resiliency solution for the cloud. It is for customers looking to 1. backup their decades-worth of data stored in physical or virtual tapes to Cloud storage (AWS S3), 2. perform analytics and business intelligence to run targeted customers or campaigns on mainframe data now available in the cloud, and 3. use the data as backup/ restore copies in the event of a disaster.

Return on Investment	Negative: Not effective use of archive data for historical displays, it takes much time and hangs. Negative: The installation method through the installer is not friendly. Positive: CICS issues can be identified, diagnosed and fixed promptly. Negative: Applying passcodes is more difficult than desired.
