eG Enterprise vs Sensu Go

eG Enterprise is an application and infrastructure monitoring platform from eG Innovations, founded in 2001 and headquartered in Singapore. It correlates user experience, application behavior, and infrastructure health to help identify why applications are slow. Transaction tracing follows Java and.NET activity across application tiers, including errors, database queries, and remote service calls. Agentless digital user experience monitoring identifies slow pages, affected locations, and whether delays arise in browsers, networks, content, or server processing. The Web App Simulator records and replays journeys, runs scripts from multiple locations, and captures failure screenshots. Coverage spans more than 650 technologies across applications, clouds, virtualization, operating systems, storage, networks, custom applications, and containers. Deployment can be SaaS or on premises for cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments. Service desk, orchestration, DevOps, and ServiceNow integrations support incident workflows. Pricing starts at $100 per month, with a 21-day trial and no free plan.

Sensu Go is a commercial monitoring and observability solution for enterprise DevOps and SRE teams overseeing infrastructure from Kubernetes to bare metal. It collects, filters, and transforms monitoring events before sending them to a database chosen by the customer. Teams can manage declarative monitoring configuration, check system and service health, collect metrics and logs, and run custom scripts including Nagios-style plugins. Agents discover virtual machines, public cloud compute instances, containers, and services. Sensu can alert by email, Slack, or SMS, create or resolve incidents in PagerDuty, ServiceNow, and JIRA, and deduplicate alerts. It also supports remediation actions such as restarting services or running scripts. Sensu Go is self-hosted and free for up to 100 nodes at one site. Pro costs $36 per year, billed annually, with a 100-node minimum; this equals $3.00 per node/month when billed annually. The free 14-day trial is for evaluating beyond 100 nodes. The backend is unsupported on Windows and macOS.
