Automatically identifies new hosts entering the environment and has ability to create custom monitoring checks
Sometimes we receive alerts, and it can become annoying when you acknowledge an alert. It is very clunky when you acknowledge the alert. The process is not very intuitive, and there are instances where it feels a bit cumbersome to acknowledge an alert. I think this aspect could be enhanced, along with the functionality of the local checks. I need to better understand how to clear an alert, especially when you're focused on a task and just need to acknowledge it. Currently, it requires clicking through a lot of buttons to acknowledge and dismiss the alert. Therefore, it would be beneficial to have a more user-friendly approach to this process. Apart from these considerations, the system is highly effective. Nevertheless, there is a certain learning curve involved in mastering its usage. For new users, it might not be immediately straightforward, and they might find it quite challenging to navigate initially. It could be helpful for them to streamline the onboarding experience and make the transition more seamless. The interface itself could use some refinement to ensure that it makes more logical sense, as there are numerous buttons and functions that can feel overwhelming. Therefore, a more coherent and user-friendly interface could greatly enhance the overall usability of the system. At the moment, the suite requires the installation of agents on each individual host. So, in future releases, it would be good if there could be an option for an agent-less platform, eliminating the need to install agents on every single server. This would simplify the process and reduce the overhead of managing agent installations across multiple servers.
