OpenText Operations Bridge vs. Sentry

Any customer who is looking for a unified monitoring solution with event Management and also looking for AIOPs. Good coverage of technologies coverage, however if any customer looking for better dashboarding solution then it may not fit. thou MF got BVD but it seems like more complex

Great for standard web application performance monitoring, analytics and error reporting. Shows line level code errors, gives insight into performance issues (plugins, API issues, etc.). Automation and scheduled scanning in production gives client visibility into 'after deployment' value. Also lets a relatively small number of developers keep tabs on a handful of different site/applications without needing a bunch of tools. The UI is pretty complicated and can be overwhelming for new users. Documentation could be better for the learning curve,

• The software includes several user-friendly features, such as a customized dashboard, drag-and-drop event management, and an integrated knowledge base.
• If you are considering purchasing a product, keep Micro Focus Operations Bridge in mind before making a purchasing decision.
• In addition, the purpose of the product is comprehensive, which means it will benefit your business in many ways.

• Great web interface. Lots of data available in a really clean format, with filtering options and more.
• Per-user exception tracking. User is complaining about something being broken? Look up their account ID in Sentry and you can see if they've run into any exceptions (with device information included, of course).
• Source map uploading. Took a little while to figure this out but now we have our deploy script upload sourcemaps to Sentry on each deployment, meaning we get to see stack traces that aren't obfuscated!
• Very generous free tier – 10,000 events per month. We're nowhere near that yet.

Incentivized

• Overall dashboards can be better
• Agent onboarding can be more automated than manual

• Alert Configuration. Would be really helpful to have multiple logical groupings within the "If" section of a single configurable alert.
• Alert Copying. Being able to copy an alert from one project to another would be super beneficial.
• Alert Tags. Better UI around how we select which tags are getting sent with each alert instead of a tiny text box.

We used Rollbar but didn't like the configuration its not easy. And also doesn't support wide features like Sentry although its a cheaper option but doesn't have the dash-boarding like Sentry and its was not easy to integrate webhooks for different purposes. Somehow many people in company where not able to understand Rollbar dashboard who were very much used to Sentry.

Incentivized

• Monitoring, OOB plugins, Event Management and AIOps are good
• Dashboard and agent onboarding could be improved as one of our customer was not happy with the same

• It helped stabilize our system in the beginning
• We had to take it down later due to internal reasons and majorly because of cost-cutting process
• If someone has a unstable system and have no way to figure out what to do, can use sentry at least temporarily along with some other APM to fix their system faster
