Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features are the rich reports, high performance, and the look and feel of the WebEx webpage are very good."
"What I like best about BMC TrueSight Operations Management is that it allows you to do granular monitoring and improves VM load."
"I believe that the ease of use and UI is great"
"I like everything about this tool. I recommend this solution to anyone looking for a standalone solution with high availability meaning that can be used depending on the customers requirements."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"We can verify uptimes as another source of keeping devices in compliance."
"eSight allows me to monitor and solve any problem in the backbone and any switch in real-time."
"I like that it supports all our Huawei devices. Unlike other network monitoring tools that monitor Huawei devices, it provides more details when it comes to monitoring or management. We can get complete details about the devices, and management is also simple."
"We use Huawei eSight to monitor devices like Wi-Fi controllers, LAN switches, and routers."
"The most important features are alarm management and the visualization of the health of our network devices."
"We can scale the solution."
"Huawei eSight provides businesses with monitoring capabilities of network devices across your network."
"I like the real-time location monitor or RTLS feature. It is similar to the monitoring feature in Cisco Prime."
"The product is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"Nagios is stable and it's easy to use the monitoring software, which is why we chose this product."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"The features I've found the most useful are the plug-ins, the fact that you can connect almost everything to it. That's very useful."
"It's too complex, too many servers are required, there are too many different components in the solution, and a lot of agents are required."
"The product must provide application or service monitoring features."
"The graphs are extremely limited. We don't have a lot of dashboard options. To make reports and dashboards more useful, we usually need to integrate some dashboard solutions."
"The UI for the end users could be improved and more flexible than it is now."
"The dashboard and performance graphs should include a way to automatically schedule and export reports."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"The stability of BMC TrueSight Operations Management needs improvement. My organization's infrastructure is vast and implemented based on BMC recommendations, but the solution needs to be optimized for large-capacity infrastructure."
"I would really like to see out-of-the-box support for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies."
"The solution needs to improve it's user interface to make it more modern and stylish. They need to design proper menu positions, features, etc. Right now the layout is complicated."
"It is not a very flexible product."
"eSight has many features and options, but sometimes, we feel that it should be more advanced, like Cisco. It would be good if they can enable some automation part in eSight. Most of our customers want automation in their network. They don't want a dependency on everything. That's why the automation part must be improved in Huawei. It will be beneficial for customers. Cisco has different products, and there are multiple products for monitoring, automation, etc. In the software-defined network, Cisco has ACI, and VMware has NSX. Such options must be there in Huawei to move to a software-defined network. Unlike Cisco, in the case of eSight, there is only one product. I am not aware of any other product. It would be good to enhance it with at least some automation options so that we can use it effectively in the campus network or big data center environment. When I implemented this Huawei solution, I faced some limitations in particular areas like wireless scanning. This is another part that they can improve. Wireless reporting option is not as effective as other monitoring solutions. For a particular use case, if a customer is asking for some reports, sometimes they are not 100% satisfactory. The reporting structure must be improved."
"Something that could be improved is the lack of integration with Cisco switches. In the next release, I would like to see better reporting."
"This solution could be improved by offering monitoring for all devices and not only Huawei devices."
"The solution and the operating system come separately. It would be easier if we did not have to deploy anything. A bundle feature would be better."
"It will be better if they can make the simple network topology part more presentable. It would also be better if they had API integration and integration with third-party devices."
"The price could be less costly."
"The pricing has recently risen. I know they've changed what is covered under the license, however, it doesn't change the way we use it and adds nothing to our experience, and yet we now have to pay more."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
