SAM is an intuitive and feature rich monitoring solution
What do you like best about the product?
We bought SAM largely for the built-in monitoring, but it has turned out to be very easy for us to build our own templates to monitor applications specific to our environment. In addition, the Thwack community permits the sharing of templates which makes the solution even more powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the licensing model to be less than ideal. I don't hate it, but I just don't love it. But, to be honest I have not got a better solution either.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SAM has been an important tool in our strategy to be more proactive and discover/resolve minor issues before they blow up into huge issues. Abilities such as alerting on a service crashing and automatically restarting it, or specific app templates for Exchange and SQL with a large number of items to monitor give deep insight into these mission critical apps. In addition the built in documentation does more than just tell you when something passes a threshold, it gives a reference to what the parameter means so you can determine if you need to adjust the threshold for your environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I do not have extensive experience with competitive products, but you should take a look at this solution.
Window to your servers
What do you like best about the product?
Great software, love the lay out compared to something like Logic Monitor. I also like that the software application module also can connect into there database performance analyser and pull even more stat information into the main. This software means our team is far more proactive and when the email alert comes into there mailbox they can click on a hyper link to link off to there server and go look at the problem, this means the IT department are getting press with in the company. We are not waiting for the phone to ring and then have someone complain that something has stopped working.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have a server that has multiple DNS names there is no way that you can have a pointer that redirects you to the proper server name. There still needs to have more work done on the SQL AppInsight we get a lot of false positives, but its better than nothing, so you need to adjust the metrics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to notify other support teams that there services that they support have stopped. This makes us look so much more on top of things, rather than the user calling to complain that something is not running and when is it going to be fixed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its easy to setup and get going... its easy to scan your network and pick up everything... so its also very easy to get information overload.

The configuration part is very hectic but very crucial.
For successful deployment of this tool you need to form a tough foundation
No compromises with that

Sometimes the interface is slow, and it would be nice to not have to hover over circles to get what a monitor is.

Root cause and performance monitoring across over 800 servers.
Great support

The dashboard is laid out in what I consider to be an unconventional way, but it's tolerable.
