Zabbix offers open-source benefits, allowing users to access all features without cost. Its standout features include auto-discovery of network devices and items, low-level discovery, scalability, and flexibility.

• "Through this approach, and given the level of details, we get friendly dashboards in the output, and at the same time a simple problem of localization tool."
• "Paessler has completely redesigned its Web interface to make it simpler to use."

Zabbix needs enhancements in the user interface, dashboard, and reporting features. Configuration and deployment are often complex, while the documentation could be clearer. Integration with other systems, support for modern workloads, and automation capabilities require development. There's a desire for more prebuilt templates, better predictive trending, and improved security features. Performance issues on large-scale environments are noted. Users highlight customization challenges, particularly for non-technical staff, and seek more AI and ML capabilities.

• "Zabbix is not suitable for large networks with 1,000+ nodes, due to PHP performance and Web GUI limitations"
