Migrating to BMC Event Manager From IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console

BMC Event Manager has numerous advantages over Tivoli Enterprise Console in terms of ease of use, administration costs, and performance, and it provides a natural gateway into service impact management capabilities and service support integrations. More importantly, BMC is an obvious choice because the BMC Event Manager technology naturally fits as a replacement for Tivoli Enterprise Console since it is fully compatible with the IBM Tivoli event sources and uses similar, though easier, paradigms for event management. This white paper reviews the similarities that make migration easy, as well as the advantages the BMC solution offers to customers seeking a low-cost, effective alternative as they look to "sunset" their Tivoli Enterprise Console implementation without throwing away existing integrated products, skills, processes, and intellectual property.
