Here is an outline of a few key differentiators
Monitoring
- CloudMonix provides a ton of additional insight into Azure resources, due to its capability of capturing non-numeric signals and its direct connectivity to various/most resources
- CloudMonix provides comprehensive starting templates with metrics and alerts, that require no or minimal adjustments. Default monitoring setups or profiles do not exist in Azure portal
Alerts & Integrations
- CloudMonix can immediately publish production alerts not only via email and SMS, but to over a dozen different popular ITSM, communication, and system management tools. Number of tools that CloudMonix connects to, far exceeds those supported by the Azure Portal
- CloudMonix's alerting engine is extremely sophisticated. It is capable of evaluating complex and nuanced conditions using metrics from any monitored resources in the environment
Self-Healing Automation
- CloudMonix is capable of executing out-of-the-box useful self-healing tasks. Self-healing instrumentation takes seconds to set up and does not require manual coding or complex Runbook scripts. This capability goes far beyond simple webhook or Runbook automation in Azure portal
- CloudMonix is capable of auto-scaling a variety of resources using a wide variety of signals and rules. These capabilities far exceed Azure portal
Visualization & Reporting
- CloudMonix allows users to scroll their dashboards back in time to get a view of their latest. This is incredibly useful for root cause analysis
- CloudMonix stores monitored data for up to 1yr and is capable of generating historical reports and dashboards for that duration
- CloudMonix allows users to receive scheduled daily weekly, monthly, and quarterly summary reports
