Don't ask why, but we have both Omegamon and Tmon. When we first replaced Omegamon with Tmon, I decided that I liked Omegamon better. Now that we have both of them back, I hardly ever use Omegamon, just Tmon. Tmon is just easier to use, especially for historical data. Although to be fair, I have not really tried out or looked at the new features of Omegamon.

I have been at two shops which converted to Omegamon from something else. At the one, we converted from TMON. Even before we got fully converted, it was found by the CICS Group that the number of keystrokes required to solve a CICS problem was 12 times greater than TMON using Omegamon. There were monitors in TMON which had no duplicates in Omegamon such as TCPIP and Websphere. This company has recently converted off of Omegamon to another product. The 2nd shop also converted off of another product to Omegamon. After 3 frustrating years of trying to get Omegamon to work (it seemed to be a fix or repair daily situation), they too have converted to another product. They also found that Omegamon was going to take 3 full time people just to do the customization of Omegagmon and maintain it. ___________________________________________ Jim Petersen MVS - Lead Systems Engineer Home Depot Technology Center 1300 Park Center Drive, Austin, TX 78753 www.homedepot.com email:jim_peter...@homedepot.com 512-977-2615 direct 210-977-2930 fax 210-859-9887 cell phone -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Yogeetha balasubramanian Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 7:41 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: TMON with OMEGAMON Comparison Hello there !! We are moving from TMON to OMEGAMON . Can someone tell me the difference from your experience between TMON and OMEGAMON that need to be considered ? We are collecting this information Which do you think is a better option. I felt OMEGAMON/CICS got a user friendly interface.
