Cons
"If an alert is generated for a specific pattern in the log, and if Checkmk catches that log, it will stay there even after the alert is resolved.""I think that the integration and the exporting of the data collected are areas where Checkmk lacks but should try to improve the most.""The initial setup is a bit complex.""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.""It is easy for tech-savvy people, but newcomers might find it intimidating.""In Checkmk, the documentation can probably be improved a bit more."

More Checkmk Cons →

"Our customers would like to see the price lowered.""The return on investment report is too difficult to understand.""The quality of service and support for this solution needs to be improved.""I think that support integration could be improved.""The product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""If the solution could provide better integration to make it easier to manage everything on different servers, that would be helpful. Whatever servers a company has, be it IBM, Dell, etc., if the System Management could be a platform that links all of them together, it would make management across different server types easier."
