Response to SolarWinds comparing SAM vs ManageEngine Applications Manager
A few weeks back, SolarWinds posted a presentation comparing their product SolarWinds SAM versus ManageEngine Applications Manager. It contained many errors and fabrications. That’s not a surprise!
The reality is that SolarWinds is at best a network monitoring product company. One can only assume being a public company, they are aggressively trying to meet their financial goals by overhyping product capabilities, confusing potential customers and picking the wrong fights.
In an effort to give customers a more transparent analysis of our respective application performance monitoring solutions, we have responded with a presentation of our own.
We think our APM product is hands down superior, but admittedly we're biased. So, in the interest of objectivity - let the market decide. ManageEngine challenges SolarWinds to an application performance monitoring public bake-off.
