Shows question being asked, breaks it down and it'll just show you who's not answering
I wouldn't want the interface to go towards the web because they did have a version that was inside of the TruView product. It was more web-based and, to me, the web-based applications lose the robustness of the intimacy of a true character interface. I liked that they were on that path and I hope that they stay on that path because it just looks like it's a better product. I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that. From a centralized platform, you could have multiple users using that particular product in a series of different ways. That's what I'd like to see, rather than having everybody running a standalone one on their own workstation.

Enables seamless global client monitoring with reliable remote connectivity
I use the solution to provide a perfect environment for remote connectivity with my clients. Many tools that I require for system maintenance are included. I can easily monitor all of my clients throughout the world I did not give much thought to it, however, improvements could be made to Zabbix.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring."
"The solution is quite mature and very stable."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"It's the best solution. Great. I would rate the overall solution ten out of ten."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"Dashboard and the customization of the items and triggers are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that."
"We would like to monitor other touchpoints such as ATM machines. It would be great if it can provide monitoring of ATM machines. Compatibility with other products would also be great."
"The product delivers false positives during reporting because of flapping. Other reasonably priced alternatives may have better performance."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"The System Center Operations Manager can be improved."
"Implementation is always tailored to the customer and the kind of information we need from the client to carry it out can make them very uncomfortable. Sometimes the clients are not ready to share it."
"​I would like to better be able to monitor Oracle processes.​"
"Zabbix can use better documentation and support for troubleshooting."
"The stability could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was pretty modest because you could get it in different ways. I think the six licenses, at that time, were about $1,000 each. But then again, I work for a school and educators tend to get discounts on things. So maybe it cost us about five or six hundred a copy."
"It is a true open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"This solution is completely open-source, so it is quite affordable."
"There is no license but we need to pay for support."
"The product is an open source and free solution."
"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"It is open source. If you want to have a subscription or official support, you can pay for it. They have different plans, which are not that expensive. The plans are based on per monitoring server, not per monitored equipment. So, it is not at all expensive, and you can also live without the support if you want a cheaper option."
"Zabbix and Grafana are both open source products, we only needed to go to their website and download the application and we began to use them. The solutions are free."
"I was using the free, Community Edition."

The template system in Zabbix is very beneficial as it saves time in configuration.
What needs improvement with Zabbix?
The reporting is lacking because this is an open-source tool, and nowadays, management's expectation is that the reports should be of high quality and every information should be presented in a con...
