The first one is vRealize Operations Manager (vRO), which helps you to monitor and report your environment. vRO is a powerful tool which collects complex information about all objects in your VMware environment.

You can quickly identify the problematic parts of your infrastructure and start with the TRBL process. vRO can describe and recommend a solution (For more information refer to https://www.vmware.com/products/vrealize-operations.html).

For a vRealize Log Insight, you can add vRO packs. For example, in the following screenshot, we see a Management Pack for NSX for vSphere. Additional information are available at the following website: https://marketplace.vmware.com/vsx/solutions/management-pack-for-nsx-for-vsphere-3-5-1:

vRealize Network Insight is a product for monitoring network and NSX environments. vRNI uses the tool NetFlow for collecting and it is a big friend for all NSX administrators because it allows tracing traffic and NSX components easily. Additional details are available at the address https://www.vmware.com/products/vrealize-network-insight.html.
