Clients experience effective network management and comprehensive monitoring
Arista currently provides their solution for their own Arista products only. A problem occurs because customers do not have only Arista products. Sometimes they have different kinds of products available in their network. For monitoring that network, they have to either procure more solutions from third parties or they have to procure the provider OEM to manage their switches. If Arista can integrate third-party switches for monitoring purposes, it will be beneficial for the customers. Arista and other competitors such as Cisco or HPE Aruba have their own benefits. Cisco and Aruba face the challenge of having multiple OS for networking their products, whereas Arista has a single OS across their products. This is very beneficial for customers as they only have to manage a single OS.

"The product provides a central management feature. It helps in eliminating human errors. It doesn't have a lot of bugs for software."
"Templates are good. We download them from the official Zabbix site or the community. If the information we need isn't available, we create custom templates based on client requirements."
"The solution is stable."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"The overall functionality of Zabbix is very good. The monitoring of bank applications that Zabbix provides is great. The information is displayed on a dashboard that is easily viewed."
"Our customers also like that they don't have to use multiple modules. Micro Focus and major vendors typically require you to buy several modules and plugins. Our customers do not like that. We offer them a single product for all their monitoring needs."
"Zabbix is scalable."
"The most valuable feature is network traffic monitoring."
 

Cons

"CloudVision could have a user-friendly interface."
"CloudVision could have a user-friendly interface."
"Arista currently provides their solution for their own Arista products only. A problem occurs because customers do not have only Arista products."
"One of the things we don't like is that Zabbix has a license structure with a price that is high compared to the competition. It's very high, for example, compared to something like Microsoft Teams."
"As far as improvements, sometimes I get a bit frustrated when I move from a previous version to a new one because some configuration has changed—I need to investigate the documentation to deal with some configuration. But it doesn't take much time, so it's okay."
"The documentation gets a bit messy between versions and is not too detailed, which is a bit painful for first-timers, especially when they run into issues."
"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 performance reporting could be improved."
"Improvement is needed as per customer requirements."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"It could be more stable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I was using the free, Community Edition."
"I use the tool's free version."
