Xandria Review

Pros:

The interactive dashboards which alert us on real time basis - helped us to manage file systems, DB tablespaces, System downs etc effectively .

Cons:

Java updates on AIX couldnt be pushed centrally from Xandria.

If you manage complex SAP systems - this is the product for you

Comments: I was truly surprised with this product. The company been around for 20 years with huge list of customers and I've never heard of it before.
Anyhow, Xandria is a SAP performance monitoring, operation and management solution. It automated our SAP daily checks and saved us many hours per day. On top of that all of it is reported in a ready to give to management report. So even more saving.
We also had issues with SAP solution manager errors and notification being very hard to understand making troubleshooting very hard. Xandria provides detailed errors and notification and perform predictive analysis this notify us on expected future failures so we can prevent them in advance.
The installation was really simple, about 10 min per SAP server plus short time for the master and we were up and ready to go within two days. Their engineers are a pleasure to work with.
I would highly recommend it to anyone managing complex SAP environments

Pros:

Automated reporting Predictive failures and notifications Daily checks and monitoring

Cons:

Haven't found one yet

Syslink Xandria Monitoring Tool

Comments: SAP Landscape, SAP Systems Monitoring has been enabled using the Xandria Monitoring Tool. It was easy to implement and kick off with. Configuring the thresholds for warning and critical alerts is also quite easy and the Syslink Support team is always on standby to help you out with Implementing and understanding the Software.

Pros:

Implementation of Syslink Xandria Tool is very user friendly and easy to adapt. You just need to install the agents, import the requested changes to your Operating System Host and SAP System and that's it, you are ready to go with the most efficient SAP Monitoring. You can configure email alerts which we are currently using to notify the System Administrators about various critical alerts and warnings to identify and resolve various issues in the nascent stage.

Cons:

We faced some implementation issues with some Windows 2008 R2 machines which might be due to outdated network drivers/adapters.

Mine...

Comments: rather good

Pros:

this helps run SAP in a easier way. Dashboards are good.

Cons:

the costs. Today, SAP offer free solutions and there are other cheaper solutions on the market

Quality and Quantity

Comments: We are monitoring our customer's systems in a DevOps environment. We have international customers as well as local customers. Each has a different support model, SLA's, maintenance windows and procedures. With Xandria the effort of managing the system on a technical level decreased and our quality of monitoring, reporting and overall support increased

Pros:

The software is easy to use and easy to setup. It has an extremely broad customizing capabilities and it is very well documented.

Cons:

The notifications. It's a bit cumbersome to setup and it's not always working 100% as configured, causing multiple iterations and changes to the config.

A Blessing for Basis Administrators

Comments: The business loves the graphs generated in the reports and lot of information that the tool provides is useful for auditing purposes.

Pros:

Ease of accessing the portal and the information that the tool provides is amazing. The reporting functionality is very valuable for our customers.

Cons:

Cannot customise the reports. As in cannot add comments to the reports.

My Personal Review

Pros:

Dashboard, monitoring and real time information

Cons:

it needs to be more cost effective as licensing is very costly when all the corporates are looking for cost cutting

My overall experience has been extremely positive.

Comments: This software allows us to offer a best-in-class monitoring service to our SAP clients. Internally this software gives my team a single-pane-of-glass to monitor all their systems while providing efficiencies in our organization.

Pros:

The best areas of this software are its ease of deployment and ability to customize. Most monitoring products are limited in how they can be used and cumbersome to deploy. Xandria has been quick to deploy within in SAP landscape and customization, once you become familiar with the product, takes minutes.

Cons:

If I could change one aspect of this software it would be an agent-less deployment. There is no SAP monitoring tool today that offers this so I cannot say that this is an actual Xandria limitation.
